Florida Certified Designated Representative (CDR) Glossary

Alas, the electronic world can be so unforgiving. Destination pages that I reference and link to often disappear, or their urls changes over time. 

Updated March 26, 2022: 
Sadly, the glossary widget is no longer available.

CA Wholesaler Self-Assessments Due July 1

• California Designated Representative Training Courses (wholesaler, 3PL) - Approved by the California State Board of Pharmacy

California Board of Pharmacy Self-Assessment Forms

Updated November 7, 2022:

Use the latest version of the forms posted on the Board's website:

CA Board of Pharmacy - Self-Assessment Forms

---  The post below is outdated --- 

According to a recent CA Board of Pharmacy email notification*, the July 1 deadline for pharmacies and wholesalers to perform their biennial self-assessment is approaching.  In a nutshell, here's what they're saying.

The Board prefers that the draft (updated) forms be used, but they can't require that the newer version be used.

Therefore, you have a choice to use the January 2010 versions of the forms (current regulations), or the draft self-assessment forms (which are not specifically required, and have more up-to-date descriptions of requirements).
