‘Exciting step forward’: Wisconsin provider status bill becomes law
April 22, 2014
Legislation applies to all pharmacists in the state.
In a big win in efforts toward state-level provider status, Wisconsin Act
294 was signed into law by Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin on April 16. The
legislation provides that “a pharmacist may perform any patient care
service delegated to the pharmacist by a physician.”
There are no limitations or restrictions on what can be delegated, and no
credentials are specified for pharmacists to hold in order to serve as a
provider of medical services. The details of any arrangement are left to the
physicians and pharmacists involved.
“As a practicing clinical pharmacist and part-time [community] pharmacist,
this is an exciting step forward on our march towards gaining formal
recognition by our government as health care providers,” said Wisconsin
pharmacist Joey Sweeney, PharmD, BCPS, Clinical Pharmacist at Aurora
Lakeland Medical Center. “Our patients will now benefit from the unique
skills and expertise pharmacists provide in this new care model opportunity.
On Wisconsin!”
Pharmacists across the country can support APhA’s provider status efforts
through the Pharmacists Provide Care campaign to achieve recognition for
pharmacists’ patient care services at the federal, state, and private
sector levels.
