  • Expanding Pharmacist-Provided Immunization Opportunities
    Expanding Pharmacist-Provided Immunization Opportunities House Bill 91 and Senate Bill 274 Legislation: • House Bill 91 - introduced by Representative Seth Grove - currently in the House Health Committee. • Senate Bill 274 - introduced by Senator Judy Ward - currently in the Senate Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure Committee. Ask your legislators: • Ask your Representatives to vote for House Bill 91. • Ask your Senators to vote for SB 274. Facts About Immunizations: • Currently in Pennsylvania, there are approximately 9,500 certified pharmacist immunizers available to safely and conveniently administer vaccinations. • According to a 2008 article in the Journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics, “With supporting health policy, health education, and communication, health care settings beyond the traditional medical home (e.g. pharmacists) have the potential to effectively augment the vaccination efforts of more traditional settings to deliver vaccines to adolescents.” • Thirteen other states have no age restrictions for pharmacists providing immunizations. • Thirty-six states allow pharmacists to provide all immunizations to children of younger ages than provided in Pennsylvania. PPA supports expanding pharmacist-provided immunization opportunities because: • The public's unique access to pharmacists – including extended hours of operation and weekend availability, coupled with being a trusted health care professional – places pharmacies in an ideal position to have a major impact on reducing vaccine-preventable illness. • Pharmacists are trained to administer immunizations and are a trusted partner in patients overall health care. Talking Point Sheet for Pharmacists, Pharmacy Technicians and Pharmacy Students ONLY (Not for Distribution) House Co-Sponsor list: House Bill 91 sponsored by Rep. Seth Grove (R-196th District) Is your Representative a Co-Sponsor? If your Representative is a current co-sponsor of House Bill 91 (listed below), be sure to thank them.

  • Senate Leaders • Sen
    The Pennsylvania House and Senate announced their 2019-2020 committee leaders. Why should I care? Committee leaders are influential members of the Pa. General Assembly. Strong relationships between them, PAMED, and physician members are key. Here are the announced committee leaders. While it may seem like some of them have nothing to do with the practice of medicine, all chairs are included because history has shown that legislation that affects physicians can get assigned to a seemingly unrelated committee due to the bill’s contents. Therefore, it’s good for physicians to be aware of all committee leaders in the Pa. General Assembly. Senate Leaders • Sen. Joe Scarnati (Jefferson) – President Pro Tempore • Sen. Jake Corman (Centre) – Majority Leader • Sen. Patrick Browne (Lehigh) – Appropriations Chairman • Sen. John Gordner (Columbia) – Majority Whip • Sen. Bob Mensch (Montgomery) – Caucus Chair • Sen.

As you well know, our nation is facing disastrous economic fallout from the necessary shutdown of business activity as a result of the COVID-19 crisis. In Philadelphia – a minority majority city with among the highest poverty levels of any major U.S. city – our small and minority-owned businesses are shuttering their doors and our people are at risk of losing everything. We need your support now more than ever before if our local economy is to survive. We respectfully ask that you bring to a vote a minimum of $908 billion for a COVID emergency relief package before the December 11th deadline and commit to the $160 billion in direct and unrestricted funding to cities like Philadelphia. We understand the many challenges you face in managing the competing interests in both chambers of our federal government, but we cannot afford to leave our local businesses, especially the hospitality industry and the thousands of people they employ without the financial safety nets to get them through the winter.
