Louisiana Senate Bill SB97 Comm Sub / Analysis

                    RÉSUMÉ DIGEST
  
ACT 666 (SB 97) 2022 Regular Session	Boudreaux
Existing law provides for the qualifications required for a pharmacist currently licensed in
another jurisdiction to apply for a license as a pharmacist by reciprocity in Louisiana.
Prior law provided that no applicant shall be eligible for licensure by reciprocity unless the
state or jurisdiction in which the applicant was initially licensed as a pharmacist also granted
reciprocity to a pharmacist duly licensed by examination in this state, under comparable
circumstances and conditions.
New law retains the requirement for dual reciprocity but removes the specific requirement
that there be comparable circumstances and conditions.
Effective August 1, 2022.
