2021 New York Laws EDN - Education Title 8 - The Professions Article 137 - Pharmacy 6826 - Drug Retail Price Lists.

§ 6826. Drug  retail  price  lists.  1. Every pharmacy shall compile a   drug retail price list, which shall contain the names of  the  drugs  on   the  list  provided  by  the  board, the pharmacy's corresponding retail   prices for each drug. Every pharmacy shall update its drug  retail  list   at least weekly and provide the time and date that the list was updated.   Every  pharmacy  shall  provide the drug retail price list to any person   upon request.2. a. The list provided by  the  board  shall  be  prepared  at  least   annually by the board and distributed to each pharmacy in the state. The   list  shall  be  a  compendium  of the one hundred fifty most frequently   prescribed  drugs  together  with  their  usual  dosages  for  which   a   prescription  is  required by the provisions of the "Federal Food, Drug,   and Cosmetic Act" (21 U.S.C. 301, et seq.; 52 Stat. 1040, et  seq.),  as   amended,  or  by  the  commissioner  of health. The board shall make the   compendium list available to each  pharmacy  free  of  charge,  both  in   printed  form  and in an electronic form that can be used to produce the   pharmacy's drug retail list. The board shall provide the compendium list   to the department of health.b. The drug retail price list shall contain an advisory  statement  by   the  department alerting consumers to the need to tell their health care   practitioner and pharmacist about all the medications they may be taking   and to ask them how to avoid harmful interactions between drugs, if any.   A pharmacy may include on its drug retail price list  a  statement:  (a)   concerning discounts from its listed retail prices that may be available   to  consumers  and  (b) any limitations that the pharmacy may have as to   what group or groups of customers it serves.3. The pharmacy's corresponding retail price means the actual price to   be paid by a retail purchaser to the pharmacy for any listed drug at the   listed dosage. However, upon implementation  of  the  prescription  drug   retail price list database by the department of health under section two   hundred   seventy-six-a   of  the  public  health  law,  the  pharmacy's   corresponding retail price shall mean  the  price  sent  to  it  by  the   department of health under that section.4.  Pharmacies  shall have a sign notifying people of the availability   of the drug retail price list and the availability of the department  of   health  prescription drug retail price list database and the web address   of that database, conspicuously posted at or adjacent to  the  place  in   the  pharmacy  where  prescriptions  are  presented  for compounding and   dispensing, in the waiting area for customers,  or  in  the  area  where   prescribed drugs are delivered.5. Nothing contained herein shall prevent a pharmacy from changing and   charging  the current retail price at any time, provided that the listed   price is updated at least weekly to reflect the new retail price.6. The commissioner shall make regulations necessary to implement this   section, including  how  this  section  is  applied  to  mail-order  and   internet pharmacies.
