Reminder regarding prescriptions from APNs
During New Jersey’s declared state of emergency resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, pharmacists may fill prescriptions written by Advanced Practice Nurses (APNs), to include prescriptions that do not include the name of a collaborating physician. Pursuant to Governor Murphy’s Executive Order 112 and pursuant to the Division of Consumer Affairs’ Administrative Order 2020-02, statutory and regulatory requirements that would otherwise mandate that an APN maintain a joint protocol with a collaborating physician, and that the collaborating physician’s name, address and telephone number be included on prescriptions written by the APN, have been waived. Although the public health emergency originally declared in Executive Order 112 has ended, the state of emergency remains in effect. Additionally, pursuant to Executive Order 292, the cited provisions of both EO 112 and AO 2020-02 remain in full force and effect at this time.
