If a PIC quits, how soon must DHHS be notified?

Immediately
Within 24 hours
Within 14 days
Within 30 days

The correct answer is: Immediately

The correct response indicates that immediate notification is required to the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) when a Pharmacist-in-Charge (PIC) resigns or quits. This requirement underscores the importance of maintaining regulatory oversight in pharmacy operations, ensuring that the pharmacy remains compliant with state laws and standards immediately following such a critical personnel change. Prompt notification allows DHHS to assess the situation and take necessary steps to mitigate any potential disruption in pharmacy services, uphold public safety, and ensure that appropriate measures are taken to appoint a new PIC without delay. In this context, the other options, which suggest longer notification periods, would not align with the urgency that the regulatory framework places on the matter. Immediate reporting is crucial to prevent any lapse in accountability and to ensure that pharmacy operations continue smoothly.
