What the document says
“by inserting ``the American Pharmacists Association, the Accreditation Council on Pharmacy Education, the American Psychiatric Nurses Association, the American Academy of Nursing, the American Academy of Family Physicians,'' before ``or any other organization''”
The section adds five named organizations to the list in section 303(m)(1)(B)(i) of the Controlled Substances Act, and amends clause (ii) so that an accredited school of pharmacy counts alongside the schools already named.
What the document actually says
“by inserting ``the American Pharmacists Association, the Accreditation Council on Pharmacy Education, the American Psychiatric Nurses Association, the American Academy of Nursing, the American Academy of Family Physicians,'' before ``or any other organization''”
That sentence, in plain words
Five more groups go into a second list. Their courses count toward the training too. A pharmacy school is added in the next clause.
What this is about
The groups named are for pharmacists and for nurses. One is for family doctors. The list already held other groups.
