Dear Licensee:
The Colorado Department of Public Health Environment issued a Public Health Order and Standing Order today to address COVID-19 vaccine administration. These orders allow all vaccine providers to administer these vaccines in accordance with the Standing Order without the need for additional prescriptions.
In addition to the Public Health Order and Standing Order, the Colorado State Board of Pharmacy will engage in emergency rulemaking on Friday, September 5 at 9 a.m. You may register to attend the meeting here.
The purpose of this emergency rulemaking is to ensure that pharmacists, pharmacy interns, and pharmacy technicians may continue to prescribe, dispense and administer vaccinations in accordance with applicable Colorado Revised Statutes. An official notice of rulemaking is forthcoming. Permanent rulemaking, including an opportunity for stakeholder input, will take place in the following months.
To receive rulemaking updates, please sign up on the Division of Professions and Occupations' website.
