Time: 7:00AM - 8:30AM
Meeting Schedule for 2020:
Wednesday, April 8 - CANCELLED
Wednesday, May 13 (if needed)
The focus of the 2019 - 2020 CPC will be the Pharmacy Practice Act Sunset process. The Act will sunset in 2021 but review and feedback will be crucial early in 2020. This will be an ideal time to discuss changes desired or needed to the practice of Pharmacy in Colorado. Additional meeting time can be used to discuss 2020 legislative issues.
The Colorado Pharmacy Coalition (CPC) is an open forum consisting of pharmacy organizations having an interest in pharmacy legislation, policies and other advocacy issues. Colorado Pharmacists Society coordinates and facilitates the CPC but all are encouraged to share. All pharmacists, interns, pharmacy technicians, and pharmacy stakeholders are welcome to attend.
We hope you will join us for our upcoming meetings! If you have any legislative, advocacy or policy concerns in the interim, always feel free to reach out to [email protected].
