Anyway, this Bill is Smoke and Mirrors. There is a loophole in the bill the size of Texas.
SEE EXCERPT BELOW
Ohio Senate passes measure forcing hospitals to administer ivermectin, other patient-requested treatments
--------
There are some caveats to the proposed rule, however, that would enable a prescriber to say no to issuing a drug for off-label use.
Pharmacists, hospitals or inpatient facilities don’t have to issue drugs for off-label use if they have a “moral, ethical, or religious belief or conviction” that conflicts with dispensing a medication off label.
They are not required to administer off-label medication if they have an “objective, good faith, and scientific” objection to the drug being used for anything other than what it is intended for, or if a pharmacist has documented that a patient is allergic to the drug or it could cause a life-threatening drug interaction.
The bill will need
to be approved by the Ohio House of Representatives before it can be sent to the governor.
