Digital Drug Information: Modernizing Prescribing Data for Healthcare Providers.

This law allows drug manufacturers to provide detailed prescribing information (professional labeling) primarily through electronic means instead of mandatory paper copies. This aims to modernize data access for doctors and pharmacists, potentially improving the speed and accuracy of prescribing decisions. Healthcare providers retain the right to request and receive paper copies free of charge if they prefer or need them.
Key points
Drug prescribing information for doctors and pharmacists will shift to a digital-first format to improve accessibility and timeliness of data.
Manufacturers must still provide paper copies of this information promptly and free of charge upon request by healthcare professionals.
The Department of Health and Human Services must issue regulations designed to minimize negative economic impacts on prescribers and dispensers.
