House committee substitute makes the following changes to 1st edition. Amends proposed GS 90-106.1 to add provision specifying that presentation of required ID may occur either at the time of the delivery of the prescription to the pharmacy or at the time the controlled substance is issued. Also clarifies that the statute does not require that the person seeking the dispensation must be the same person to whom the prescription is issued. Establishes procedures in cases where a person provides a list of other people who are authorized to receive the controlled substances on the person’s behalf if the pharmacy has a policy of keeping such an authorized list for its customers. The law does not require pharmacies to have such a policy. Specifies that the statute does not apply to the dispensation of controlled substances to employees of health care facilities, as defined in GS 131E-256(b), when they are delivered to the health care facilities for the benefit of its residents or patients.
