Or. Admin. Code § 855-141-0405 - Labeling: Prescription Reader Accessibility
(1) A PPK must
notify each person to whom a prescription drug is dispensed that a prescription
reader is available to the person upon request; a prescription reader is a
device designed to audibly convey labeling information.
(2) If a person informs the PPK Affiliated
Pharmacy that the person identifies as a person who is blind, the pharmacy must
provide to the person a prescription reader that is available to the person for
at least the duration of the prescription, must confirm it is appropriate to
address the person's visual impairment, and must ensure that prescription
labels are compatible with the prescription reader. This requirement does not
apply to an institutional drug outlet, dispensing a drug intended for
administration by a healthcare provider.
(3) The PPK Affiliated Pharmacy must ensure a
Pharmacist verifies and documents that the correct electronic label was placed
on each prescription container and that the audio information produced by the
prescription reader is accurate prior to dispensing the prescription.
