The new Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) final rule revising management standards for hazardous waste pharmaceuticals will take effect August 2019. Healthcare facilities that provide a host of healthcare-related services or distribute, sell or dispense pharmaceuticals, and reverse distributors of pharmaceuticals will need to learn a whole new set of regulations under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), or risk being assessed steep penalties.

Register now for this one-hour complimentary webinar that will navigate you through the new regulatory framework included in this rule and the possible implications for a range of healthcare facilities including: hospitals, health clinics, skilled nursing, long-term care, in-patient hospice, pharmacies, and others. There will be an opportunity for Q&A following the presentation.
