QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Before you
get started.

General orientation only. Verify specific requirements for your permit and pharmacy with the responsible authority.

What is the difference between resident and nonresident pharmacy licensing?

A pharmacy based in one state may need a nonresident permit to dispense into another. Requirements vary by destination state. Confirm the relevant category with that state’s board.

When may a pharmacy need to update its permit?

Ownership, business name, officer or manager changes can involve different requirements. The correct path depends on the permit and business structure. Review the relevant state authority’s current instructions before filing.

Can Element help with renewals and license tracking?

Ask about renewal tracking, application preparation and any filing support available for your pharmacy.

Is Medicaid or Medicare enrollment the same as a pharmacy permit?

No. Pharmacy licensure and Medicaid or Medicare provider enrollment are separate processes. Each program has its own requirements.

Is PBM credentialing the same as Medicaid or Medicare enrollment?

No. PBM network applications are separate from Medicaid and Medicare enrollment. Each network makes its own participation and contract decisions.

What should I prepare before a review?

The pharmacy location, requested service, current status and a brief business description are useful. Do not send patient records, prescription details, Social Security numbers, dates of birth or bank information through this website.
