After some discussion, the Oregon Board of Pharmacy has published the final rule requiring pharmacies to notify patients that prescription readers are available and to provide the readers to patients who request one. This device is particularly vital for individuals who are visually impaired, blind or print impaired.
The rule went into effect June 23, 2020 and is the culmination of state legislation that was enacted in 2019.
