Senate Bill 500 amends the Occupations Code to increase from nine to 11 the number of members on the Texas State Board of Pharmacy by increasing to seven the number of members on the board required to be pharmacists and adding one member required to be a pharmacy technician. The bill prescribes minimum qualifications for the pharmacy technician board member, makes corresponding changes to the expiration of terms for board members, and removes the requirement that the board meet at least twice each year for the examination of applicants.
