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.
