Should Pharmacists Be Allowed to Write Prescriptions?

October 17, 2023 By Richard C. Young

On November 15, at the Cato Institute, Ross Tsuyuki, the Chair of the Department of Pharmacology at the University of Alberta will discuss giving pharmacists the ability to prescribe medications to patients. Details of the event from Cato are as follows:

Pharmacists have sufficient training to autonomously prescribe medications to prevent or treat many medical conditions. But states generally require patients to obtain a doctor’s prescription before purchasing pharmaceuticals. This restriction drives up health care costs and unnecessarily inconveniences patients, often when they are in distress. Canadian provinces, by contrast, give pharmacists a wide scope for prescribing pharmaceuticals, as Ross Tsuyuki will discuss. Alex Adams will explain recent pharmacist scope of practice reform in Idaho, Colorado, and Montana; Marc Joffe will provide an overview of relevant federal and state policies; and Dr. Jeffrey Singer will offer policy recommendations that could improve the patient experience while reducing health care costs.

Watch the event here on November 14, 2023.
