President's Message

Hello All,
Unlike the Rolling Stones Tour, this will be my last appearance in the President’s column. First and most importantly, I must thank a lot of people who have made this job so much easier for me. Dr. Randy Wheeler for his role as Executive Director of the IVMA. Handling the day to day business of this great organization is more than a full time job! The office staff: Tracy Grodnitzky, Cyndy Bolsenga, and Teresa Farrell. These terrific ladies sent me agendas, made sure I RSVP’d to meetings, helped meetings run smoothly, answered all my questions, and made sure I had the president’s column to them by the 20th of each month! (It is actually due on the 15th, so you can see what they had to work with). Thank you! More...

Iowa Mandate for Electronic Transmission of Prescriptions Does not Apply to Veterinarians
The Board of Pharmacy recently adopted final rulemaking to implement 2018 Iowa Acts, House File 2377, which mandates the electronic transmission of all prescriptions not subject to an exception as of January 1, 2020. The Board’s rules were published in the Iowa Administrative Bulletin on July 31, 2019 and became effective September 4, 2019. The mandate includes an exception for prescriptions authorized by veterinarians.  Therefore, veterinarians are not required to transmit prescriptions electronically to a pharmacy.
