SB 832 Wisconsin Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Relating to: remote dispensing sites under the pharmacy practice law.

SB 832 establishes a new regulatory framework for pharmacies operating remotely without a pharmacist physically present on-site. It defines "remote dispensing sites" (now called "remotely supervised pharmacies") and allows the pharmacy board to create rules exempting these sites from standard pharmacy requirements. The bill clarifies that such remote operations are not classified as community or institutional pharmacies under existing rules. It repeals previous provisions requiring pharmacist presence and modifies licensing rules to specifically accommodate these remote pharmacy models.
