California Designated Representative Training Programs - Approved by the California State Board of Pharmacy

Are You Applying For A Designated Representative License?

If you're applying for a California Designated Representative license, then you'll need to include proof of required training (specifically, a training affidavit) in your license application packet. Earn a training affidavit by taking any one of our approved California Designated Representative training courses.

SkillsPlus International Inc. offers the largest selection of California Board of Pharmacy-approved training programs for California Designated Representative license applicants; and is the ONLY Board-approved provider of three distinct California Designated Representative online training classes (including one for Reverse Distributors). Each online course confers a Board-recognized training affidavit.

Here's Why You Should Take An "Approved" Training Program Or Course

The California Designated Representative Application - Training Affidavit Form specifies:

• "The individual applying for a designated representative license in California has completed an approved training program required by Section 4053(b)(3) of the California Business and Professions Code that addressed ..."
• That the training affidavit must "be completed by the person having direct knowledge of the applicant’s training. The applicant may not verify his/her own training."

The Board is essentially saying:

• If applicants attempt self-study, or take "home-grown" training that isn't Board-approved, the submitted training program won't be accepted.
• Let the buyer beware! If you need a Board-approved training course, make sure the program being offered is officially approved and accepted by the Board of Pharmacy.

According to the article:

The Department is also committed to preventing hoarding and price gouging for critical supplies during this crisis.  To combat this misconduct, the President issued an Executive Order pursuant to section 102 of the Defense Production Act, which prohibits hoarding of designated items, and Attorney General Barr has now created the COVID-19 Hoarding and Price Gouging Task Force.  In a memo to U.S. Attorneys, Attorney General Barr said, “we will aggressively pursue bad actors who amass critical supplies either far beyond what they could use or for the purpose of profiteering. Scarce medical supplies need to be going to hospitals for immediate use in care, not to warehouses for later overcharging.”

New Licenses Required For Third-Party Logistics Providers (3PLs)

• Board-approved California Designated Representative online training programs for wholesale, 3PL, reverse distribution Des Rep license applicants

Read the full article, "New Licenses Required For Third-Party Logistics Providers (3PLs)," recently published in the Winter 2015 edition of The Script - by the California State Board of Pharmacy (PDF):

"Companies that do not own, but receive, store, select and ship prescription drugs and prescription devices into or within California need to obtain a third-party logistics provider (3PL) license immediately with the California State Board of Pharmacy.

Federal legislation enacted in November 2013 directed that 3PLs must be regulated as a separate class and not as a drug wholesaler."

AB 2605 (a new law):

• "Creates a new licensure class of 3PLs and nonresident 3PLs for those businesses that do not own, but receive, store and ship prescription drugs and prescription devices;
• Creates a new licensure class of “designated representative-3PL” for individuals who work in the 3PLs and possess the knowledge and experience necessary to be responsible for the quality of stored and shipped prescription items on a 3PL premises; and
• Creates a new qualifying category of licensure for a responsible manager called “designated representative-3PL,” who acts as the facility manager and representative in charge of the 3PL."

Medicare Bidding - Could Hurt HME Providers

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5, 2013: Medicare Bidding Process Slams Home Medical Equipment Providers With Arbitrary Reimbursement Rates | PRNewswire | Rock Hill Herald Online:

""This is a sham," said Joel Marx, chairman of the board at AAHomecare and chairman of Medical Service Company in Cleveland.  He said the malfunctioning system also encourages "suicide low bids" by companies desperate to win contracts.  In fact, 244 economists, more than two dozen consumer and disability groups, 186 members of Congress, and the National Federation of Independent Business have opposed the current bidding system.

"By limiting which companies can provide the products and services, CMS can arbitrarily select prices as low as it wants and call it savings," said Marx. "This is not competitive bidding and there is no guarantee that the winning bidders can actually supply the products and services at the prices selected by CMS.""

IN BRIEF: OXYGEN FRAUD, APRIA'S STRATEGY - HME News.com

---  the original post follows below  ---

The Miami Herald reports, Florida probes Miami-area medical-equipment kickbacks - Medicaid investigators are targeting fraud in Miami-Dade County, zeroing in on questionable billing for medical equipment. They report investigations of providers suspected of bilking the state healthcare program for low-income people by billing for oxygen concentrators that are not medically needed. Investigators also visited more than 120 Medicaid patients, some of whom may have received kickbacks from medical equipment suppliers for ordering their products. Of note, investigators indicate that unnecessary billing for oxygen concentrators has been a particular problem over the past five years. According to Holly Benson, secretary for the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration, said fraudulent billing for oxygen concentrators is the latest scam ailing Medicaid, which spent $90 million on medical equipment in fiscal 2007-08. About 25 percent of that spending, funded by state and federal taxes, was in Miami-Dade. In summary, it's especially important to have things in order if you're near Miami and billing for oxygen concentrators.
