Rx FAQ

Division of Emergency Preparedness and Community Support


How does Florida Rx Connects work?

There are three key components of this program:

  1. Repositories
  2. Donors
  3. Patients

Each of these components include strict guidelines of eligibility to participate.

 

Immunity from Liability and Disciplinary Action

Any donor of prescription drugs or supplies and any participant in the program who exercises reasonable care in donating, accepting, distributing, or dispensing prescription drugs or supplies under the program is immune from civil or criminal liability and professional disciplinary action by the state for any injury, death, or loss to person or property relating to such activities.

A pharmaceutical manufacturer who exercises reasonable care is not liable for any claim or injury arising from the donation of any prescription drug or supply under this section, including, but not limited to, liability for failure to transfer or communicate product or consumer information regarding the donated prescription drug or supply, including its expiration date.

 


 

Repository Forms 

Repositories under the Prescription Drug Donation Repository Program, known as Florida Rx Connects, are required to submit forms monthly.

Online forms will be submitted by the 5th of each month, even if the repository has no new donations, eligible patients, or changes to inspection and storage.

If there are no new donations, patients, or inspection and storage information, please indicate “No information to report” on the form.

If you have any questions, contact PrescriptionDrugDonationProgram@FLHealth.gov. Please allow at least 24 hours for a response.
