The bill amends section 465.0125 of the Florida Statutes to revise the definition of "health care facility" and expand the scope of practice for consultant pharmacists. Specifically, it now includes health care clinics owned by hospitals or by physicians employed or contracted with hospitals as part of the definition. This change allows consultant pharmacists to provide medication management services in these additional settings, thereby enhancing their role in patient care within the healthcare system.

The bill also includes a deletion of the term "or" from the previous definition of health care facilities, which previously listed various types of facilities without including clinics owned by hospitals or physicians. The effective date for this legislation is set for July 1, 2026.
