All non-accredited pharmacies have until December 31, 2010 to apply for the Pharmacy Exemption.   Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) have been releasing information concerning the pharmacy exemption requirements. The 5% Pharmacy Exemption Rule has been widely advertised as a relief for independent pharmacies. However, it is not as simple as the press releases have made it sound. Please remember, if you are accredited, no actions or decisions are needed, your accreditation is for three full years.
