Wyoming Collaborative Practice Agreement for Pharmacists
Required. The Collaborative Practice Agreement is the written instrument Wyoming law names for a Pharmacist working with a physician. Below: the board that governs it, what it must contain, and the terms it has to carry.
Represents Wyoming's Collaborative Pharmaceutical Care agreement tier (W.S. § 33-24), not ordinary pharmacist licensure — base dispensing and standalone statutory authorities (hormonal contraceptives under § 33-24-159, immunizations under § 33-24-157) need no physician-specific CPA and are out of scope here. No board-certification requirement or numeric per-prescriber cap was found for the general collaborative-care CPA.
What a Wyoming Collaborative Practice Agreement must contain
Governed by the Wyoming State Board of Pharmacy. Each numbered item is a statutory requirement the agreement must satisfy.
The Pharmacist shall not conduct medication therapy management ("MTM") for a patient under this Agreement unless the Physician and the Pharmacist have first executed a written collaborative practice agreement, forwarded five (5) signed copies to the Wyoming State Board of Pharmacy, and received written notice of the Board's approval; the Pharmacist shall not practice under the collaborative practice agreement, or any later revision to it, until so notified.
The Physician and Pharmacist must each be currently licensed by their respective Wyoming boards and in active practice in this State for the collaborative practice agreement to remain valid.
- The Collaborative Practice Agreement on file also carries 2 scope, 1 education, 1 registration, 1 authority clauses, generated in the document itself.

About Wyoming's rules
Wyoming is a full-independence state for ALL FOUR APRN roles (NP, CRNA, CNM, CNS) under the APRN Consensus Model — no supervision/collaboration agreement required. PAs are separate: permanent physician supervision under W.S. 33-26, capped at 3 PAs per physician absent Board-approved good cause (W.S. 33-26-504) — one of the few explicit numeric PA ratio caps on file.
