This bill, known as the 'FAIR Rx Act,' proposes changes to the laws in Tennessee that govern the ownership or control of pharmacies by pharmacy benefits managers (PBMs). The aim is to ensure greater freedom, access, and integrity in the operation of registered pharmacies by potentially restricting or regulating the influence PBMs have over these pharmacies.
The bill expands the definition of 'adult-oriented establishment' in Tennessee law to include businesses that offer sexually oriented materials or entertainment, even if these are not their main products or services. This change means such businesses will have to follow specific regulations that apply to adult-oriented establishments. The aim is to ensure that these businesses comply with existing rules for adult entertainment and materials.
