A pharmacist, pharmacy permitholder, pharmacy intern, pharmacy technician, health care
institution in the state, state agency, or law enforcement agency in the state having actual
knowledge that a pharmacist, pharmacy intern, or pharmacy technician may have committed
any of the grounds for disciplinary action provided by law or rules adopted by the board shall
promptly report that information in writing to the state board of pharmacy. A pharmacist,
pharmacy technician, or institution from which the pharmacist or pharmacy technician voluntarily
resigns, or voluntarily limits that individual's staff privileges, shall report the actions of the
licensee or registrant to the state board of pharmacy if that action occurs while the licensee or
registrant is under formal or informal investigation by the institution or a committee of the
institution for any reason related to possible professional incompetence, unprofessional
conduct, or mental or physical impairment. Upon receiving a report concerning a licensee or
registrant, the board's investigative committee may investigate any evidence that appears to
show a licensee or registrant is committing, or may have committed, any of the grounds for
disciplinary action provided by law or rules adopted by the board. A person required to report
under this section who makes a report in good faith is not subject to criminal prosecution or civil
liability for making the report. For purposes of any civil proceeding, the good faith of a person
who makes the report under this section is presumed. A report to the impaired pharmacist
program, the pharm-assist committee, of the North Dakota pharmacists association is
considered reporting under this section. For purposes of this section, a person has actual
knowledge if that person acquired the information by personal observation or under
circumstances that cause that person to believe there exists a substantial likelihood that the
information is correct. An agency or health care institution that violates this section is guilty of a
class B misdemeanor. A pharmacist, pharmacy permitholder, pharmacy intern, or pharmacy
technician who violates this section is guilty of a class B misdemeanor and is subject to
administrative action by the state board of pharmacy as specified by law or by rule.
