CCS/HCS/SB 284 - This act modifies the exemption from state and local sales tax for certain medical supplies, to include rentals of medical oxygen, home respiratory equipment and accessories, hospital beds and accessories, ambulatory aids, wheelchairs, scooters, reading machines, electronic print enlargers, electronic communication devices, and items used to modify motor vehicles for individuals with disabilities. The act also creates a sales tax exemption for drugs that are required to meet the Food and Drug Administration's over-the-counter drug labeling requirements. This act allows the Board of Pharmacy to refuse to issue a certificate of registration, permit, or license to an applicant for a pharmacy or drug distributor license if the designated pharmacist-in-charge, manager-in-charge, or any officer, owner, manager, or controlling shareholder of the applicant has committed an act that would be grounds for discipline under the Board of Pharmacy's disciplinary statute. This act defines the term "legend drug" for the purpose of certain pharmacy laws. Legend drugs will mean any drug or biological product that is subject to a certain federal law, is required to be labeled in certain ways, or is required to be dispensed by prescription only or is restricted to use by practitioners only. The act excludes certain drugs and drug products that are being used in clinical trials. This act has an emergency clause for the section regarding legend drugs. Provisions of this act are similar to HCS/SB 325 (2011), HB 55 (2011), and SCS/HCS/HB 412 (2011). EMILY KALMER
