What is the mandate?
The Michigan Board of Pharmacy now recognizes Joint Commission Home Care Accreditation for meeting its mandate - which requires accreditation for facilities seeking to be licensed as a compounding pharmacy. This mandate affects pharmacies that perform compounding services for sterile pharmaceuticals.
How can I meet this requirement?
Not any accreditor will do. The Joint Commission's Home Care Accreditation is officially approved by the Michigan Board of Pharmacy as an option for pharmacies that need to meet the state’s pharmacy compounding mandate.
