A HOUSE RESOLUTION urging the Legislative Council
to assign to an appropriate study committee the topic of
vaccinations and immunizations provided by pharmacists.
Whereas, Ensuring the general availability of safely-
administered vaccines and immunizations is an important goal
of any state's public health policy; and,
Whereas, Indiana law currently authorizes pharmacists to
administer vaccinations, and it is the responsibility of the
General Assembly to maintain standards and regulations with
respect to this practice that are conducive to public health and
safety; Therefore,
SECTION 1. That the Indiana House of Representatives urges the Legislative Council to assign to an appropriate study committee for interim study the topic of developing a comprehensive plan for
pharmacist-administered vaccinations in Indiana, including a review of
the different vaccinations and immunizations a pharmacist is
authorized to administer.
SECTION 2. That the Legislative Council is urged to make the
findings and recommendations of the Center for Disease Control the
basis of the committee's study.
