This bill amends the Code of West Virginia to authorize the Board of Pharmacy to promulgate a legislative rule concerning the registration of pharmacy technicians. Specifically, it references a legislative rule that was filed in the State Register on July 24, 2025, which was subsequently modified to address concerns raised by the Legislative Rule-Making Review Committee and refiled on October 22, 2025. The bill confirms the authority of the Board of Pharmacy to implement this rule, which is designated as 15 CSR 07.

The primary aim of this legislation is to streamline the process for registering pharmacy technicians, thereby enhancing the regulatory framework governing pharmacy practice in West Virginia. By granting the Board of Pharmacy the authority to establish this rule, the bill seeks to ensure that the registration process is both effective and compliant with state regulations.
