Universal Citation: WY Code of Rules 3-7

Current through September 21, 2024

(a) The requirement of registration is waived for any agent or employee of a person who is registered to engage in any group of independent activities, if such agent or employee is acting in the usual course of his business or employment.

(b) A practitioner (other than an intern, resident, or foreign physician) who is an agent or employee of another practitioner registered to dispense controlled substances may, when acting in the usual course of his employment, administer, and dispense (other than by issuance of prescription) controlled substances if and to the extent that such individual practitioner is authorized or permitted to do so by the jurisdiction in which he practices, under the registration of the employer or principal practitioner in lieu of being registered himself. (For example, a pharmacist employed by a pharmacy need not be registered individually to fill a prescription for controlled substances if a pharmacy is so registered.)

(c) A practitioner who is an intern, resident, or foreign physician may dispense and prescribe controlled substances under the registration of the hospital or other institution which is registered and by whom he is employed provided that:

(i) Such dispensing or prescribing is done in the usual course of his professional practice;

(ii) Such individual practitioner is authorized or permitted to do so by the laws of the State of Wyoming;

(iii) The hospital or other institutions by whom he is employed has determined that the practitioner is so permitted to dispense or prescribe drugs by the State of Wyoming;

(iv) Such practitioner is acting only within the scope of his employment in the hospital or institution;

(v) The hospital or other institution authorizes the intern, resident, or foreign physician to dispense or prescribe under the hospital registration and designates a specific internal code number for each intern, resident, or foreign physician so authorized. The code number shall consist of numbers, letters, or a combination thereof and shall be a suffix to the institution's DEA registration number, preceded by a hyphen (e.g., AP 0123456-10 or AP 0123456-A12;

(vi) A current list of internal codes and the corresponding practitioner is kept by the hospital or other institution and is made available to the public upon request for the purpose of verifying the authority of the prescribing practitioner.
