Which of the following statements is true regarding consult agreements?

The statement that pharmacists participating in a consult agreement must have a Pharm. D or be Board certified is correct because regulatory standards require a high level of education and training for pharmacists engaging in consult agreements. These agreements enable pharmacists to assume certain patient care responsibilities typically held by physicians, including medication management and making clinical decisions related to therapy. As such, it is essential that pharmacists have advanced qualifications, which are provided by obtaining a Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm. D) degree or attaining board certification in their area of practice. This ensures that they possess the necessary expertise to ensure patient safety and deliver quality care within the framework of these agreements.

Other statements may contain inaccuracies about physician oversight, record-keeping requirements, or educational prerequisites that do not align with the necessary qualifications for pharmacists involved in consult agreements.
