Parental Bill of Rights What Does This Have to Do with Pharmacists?

J

ust recently, I had the honor of presenting a legislative update program to the members of the Alachua County Association of Pharmacists in Gainesville. This was their first in-person meeting post-pandemic and I sense that all who were present relished the ability to come together again. It is a scenario that I am seeing much of these days; but this is not the subject of my commentary in Florida Pharmacy Today this month. If you have been scanning through our policy updates (see FPA Latest News – October 11, 2021) or attending our regulatory and law conferences, you may be aware of legislation that was approved by the Governor in 2021 entitled Parents’ Bill of Rights. HB241 had no less than 26 co-sponsors in the Florida House of Representatives. The bill acknowledges the constitutional principles in place that parents, who have children in their care, have certain liberties to protect the privacy of their offspring. This ranges from choices related to education and/or health care. What is interesting and what we have shared with our members is that HB241 created F.S. 1014.06 under Parental Bill of Rights. This new statute is not within the pharmacy practice act (F.S. 465) or the general health profession laws (F.S. 456); rather, it is in a new section. Under this new statute, you will find this language: “Except as otherwise provided by law, a health care practitioner, as defined in s.456.001, or an individual employed by such health care practitioner may not provide or solicit or arrange to provide health care services or prescribe medicinal drugs to a minor child without first obtaining

written parental consent.” If you look under F.S. 456.001, you will discover that pharmacists are listed as one of the many “health care practitioners” under Florida laws. So, what does this have to do with pharmacists? Well, the simple answer is before you provide a pharmacy service such as dispensing or consulting to a minor, you must have written consent from the parent of the child. Failure to get that consent means that you may be committing a misdemeanor. It gets more interesting as we dive deeper into this issue. The Board of Pharmacy has revised its disciplinary guidelines to address this issue. Rule 64B16-30.001 has been changed (effective 3/13/2022) to create a licensure penalty for failure to comply with parental consent requirements of F.S. 1016.06. The minimum penalty is a reprimand and a $250 fine with a maximum penalty of a 1 year probation and a fine of $500. For repeat offenders, the penalty could go as high as a revocation of the license. So, who is considered a minor? Our general counsel, T. J. Morton, points to F.S. 1.01(13) as defining a minor as anyone who has not reached the age of 18; so anyone who is 17 or under will be the subject of the need to get consent. Some of our members were interested in how HIPAA privacy standards permit getting consent from someone who is not a patient. According to HHS, which is responsible for interpreting and enforcing HIPAA, HIPAA allows a parent to access his or her minor child’s medical records. However, there are 3 limited exceptions to this: ■ When the consent of the parent is not required under state law. Un-

der section 1014.06, consent of the parent is almost always required. Thus, this exception will rarely apply in Florida. ■ When the minor obtains care at the direction of a court or courtappointed representative. ■ When, and to the extent, that the parents agree that the provider and the child may have a confidential relationship. Even if one of these exceptions applies, a parent may still have a right to access the records if a state law allows it. So how does a pharmacy comply with this obligation? Recalling my time as a community pharmacist health care provider, the services I delivered to minor patients always seem to be through the child’s parent. It was very rare to receive a

prescription at the counter from a minor child. The appropriate thing to do is to create a simple consent form or digital signature log. We sign consent forms all the time for our children to attend and participate in school functions. You can easily build one from those templates or if you prefer a more formalized process, you can have your legal counsel draft something for you that is appropriate for your pharmacy. It is probably recommended to keep those records for at least 4 years. Many other health care providers flag consent forms for renewal after some time has passed. Keeping the patient’s age in your pharmacy point-of-care systems may also help to determine whether getting a signed consent is needed. n

Peoria, Illinois, and Pharmacy: What is the Connection? William Garst, Pharm.D., Consultant Pharmacist

William Garst, Pharm.D. Consultant Pharmacist

Peoria, in central Illinois, is the largest city on the Illinois River. This article is about how a laboratory in Peoria played a major role in World War II and beyond, and our story begins in the middle to late 1930s in Great Britain. The discovery of penicillin in 1928 by Scottish physician and microbiologist Alexander Fleming has been well documented. Dr. Fleming published his findings in 1929, but they were largely ignored until Dr. Ernst Chain, a Jewish immigrant from Hitler’s Germany to Great Britain, read of Dr. Fleming’s research in the later part of the 1930s. During this period, Britain was preparing for war against Germany and scientists were searching for new treatments for battlefield infections - which actually killed more soldiers than bombs or bullets combined. He brought the research to his supervisor, Dr. Howard Florey at Oxford, and they agreed that penicillin warranted further research. The researchers received a Rockefeller Foundation grant and were able to show penicillin’s promise; however, they were unable to persuade the British government or private companies to underwrite their efforts. What was needed was a way to produce larger quantities of penicillin and, finding little support in their own country, they had to look elsewhere. War-torn Europe had little resources, manpower, and scientific wherewithal to approach this project. Dr. Florey called the US. Department of Agriculture’s research laboratory in Peoria, where ways of putting surplus crops to good use were devised. The laboratory has since been renamed as the National Center for Agricultural Utilization Research (NCAUR). Two things were initially identified as necessary: a better fermentation process and a penicillium species to yield more penicillin. The fermentation process was greatly improved by using corn liquor in the fermentation broth. The search for the penicillium species proved more difficult. The order went out to members of the U.S. Army Transport Command to bring back mold extracts and soil samples from wherever they traveled around the world. Many hours of labor culturing organisms from decaying fruits, old cheeses, breads, meats and soil samples ensued. However, it was a mold from an overripe cantaloupe from a Peoria fruit market that eventually produced the “super” mold that would be the pri-

mogenitor for almost all of the world’s penicillin. By the time June 1944 arrived, there was enough penicillin produced to treat up to 40,000 U.S. and British combatants. The German troops could only rely on the “sulfa” antibiotics which were less effective, had higher fatality rates, more amputations, and longer recovery times than penicillin treatments. The new drug became as indispensable in the Allied war effort as any weapon. Another valuable medicine that was developed in the laboratories in Peoria was a drug called dextran: a polysaccharide produced by bacteria. It is a plasma expander used in incidents of major blood loss and was developed in time to be used in the Korean and Vietnam Wars. It is still used today in hospitals as a plasma expander from major blood loss. By the way, the bacteria that produced dextran was found in a half empty bottle of root beer someone at the laboratory had failed to throw away. Peoria and the scientists that worked at the NCAUR, along with the input from the British, took penicillin from a good idea to a practical medication used to save countless lives and developed dextran that saves lives from major blood loss. Stay informed and stay healthy. William Garst is a consultant pharmacist who resides in Alachua, Florida. He received his bachelor’s degree in pharmacy from Auburn University in 1975. He earned a master’s degree in pharmacy from the University of Florida in 2001. In 2007, he received his doctor of pharmacy from the University of Colorado. Dr. Garst is a member of many national professional associations as well as the local Alachua County Association of Pharmacists. He serves on the Alachua County Health Care Advisory Board. He works part-time at the UF Health Psychiatric Hospital and retired from the VA in 2016. Dr. Garst enjoys golf, reading (especially history) and family. He writes a blog called The Pharmacy Newsletter (https://thepharmacy newsletter. com). He can be contacted at communitypharmacynewsletter@gmail.com .

Tallahassee Pharmacist Running for Florida House District 8 The Florida Pharmacy Association has learned that pharmacist and FPA member Gallop Franklin has filed to run for Florida House District 8 seat. Representative Ramon Alexander has chosen to not run for another term. Dr. Franklin, who is on the faculty at Florida A&M University, was the first to file for the primary to be held this August. As we are preparing this article for you, 4 others have since entered that race. House District 8 includes Gadsden County and portions of Leon County. Dr. Franklin, whose roots are in Tallahassee, was student body president at Florida A&M University and also served on that University’s Board of Trustees. Dr. Franklin is the second pharmacist that will be in the running for a House Seat. FPA member Shane Abbott is also running for House District 5 in the Florida panhandle. It has been nearly 3 decades since Florida has elected a pharmacist to serve in the legislature and now it appears that we have 2 candidates in the mix. Members are encouraged to learn more about and support these campaigns.
