This 501(c)(3) (tax-exempt)
organization has a 9 member (non-paid) board of directors. It is free
standing and
separate from the Pharmacy State Board and the State Pharmacy
Professional Organizations. The Board of
Directors does have a (generic) liability insurance
(civil and criminal immunity in "snitch law" protects them
from suits if
reporting to Board is done in good faith). It refers clients to substance
abuse professionals for the
evaluation and treatment of its clients, along
with reports dealing with a client’s fitness to return to practice.
This
organization has a written signed "Memorandum of Understanding" with the PA
Board of Pharmacy and the PA
Bureau of Occupational and Professional
Affairs, Professional Health Monitoring Program (PHMP). This reduces
redundancy of monitoring parameters. The state's 1985
Pharmacy Act enables a licensee of the Board to act as a
consultant to the
Board in impairment evaluation and treatment.
What about funding? Client fees -
$600/yr for those with their license, $100/yr for those without license or
students. It does not receive funding through license renewal fees. (It does receive a grant via PA
Board of
Pharmacy and Bureau of Professional and Occupational Affairs.)
Charitable contributions are raised by a direct
mail campaign.
Active clients include: Pharmacists,
Pharmacy Students.
