WHOLESALE PRESCRIP DRUG DIST
Summary
Amends the Freedom of Information Act to exempt the disclosure of certain information provided under the Wholesale Prescription Drug Distribution Protection and Licensing Act of 2005. Amends the Wholesale Drug Distribution Licensing Act. Changes the short title of the Act to the Wholesale Prescription Drug Distribution Protection and Licensing Act of 2005 and amends the Regulatory Sunset Act to reflect that change. Defines "authorized distributor of record", "sales unit", and "verifiable account". Sets forth separate penalties for certain acts concerning prescription drugs. Provides that the Department of Financial and Professional Regulation shall consider any findings of certain criminal background checks, civil litigation checks, and financial background checks in reviewing the qualifications of persons who engage in the wholesale distribution of prescription drugs in the State. Sets forth requirements for licensure application, drug manufacturer information, a surety bond, a designated representative, a pedigree concerning distribution, and due diligence review by wholesale drug purchasers, as they relate to the wholesale distribution of prescription drugs. Provides that the Department shall conduct a physical inspection of each in-State applicant's facility prior to issuing a license, or, for a wholesale distributor with a valid license on the effective date of this amendatory Act, prior to issuing a renewal, with regular periodic inspections conducted thereafter, no more than 3 years following the last inspection (now, any wholesale drug distributor providing adequate documentation of the most recent satisfactory inspection less than 3 years old of the distributor's wholesale drug distribution activities and facilities by certain comparable entities shall be exempt from further inspection for a period of time to be determined by the Department). Provides that the Department shall make publicly available on its website the dates of the first and most recent inspections of each wholesale distributor and the license suspension, revocation, expiration, or other relevant disciplinary action. Makes other changes.
