Arizona SB1545 prohibits pharmacy benefit managers from holding pharmacy permits and mandates notification requirements for affected pharmacies.

Arizona SB1545 amends the Arizona Revised Statutes to prohibit pharmacy benefit managers from acquiring or holding pharmacy permits for retail sale of prescription drugs. The Arizona State Board of Pharmacy must assess existing permits and notify holders of any violations. If a pharmacy permit holder is found in violation, the board may either revoke or not renew the permit. The bill also allows for limited service pharmacy permits for certain rare, orphaned, or limited distribution drugs.
