What is the maximum number of CPP's a Supervising Physician may supervise?

In North Carolina, a Supervising Physician is permitted to supervise a maximum of three Certified Pharmacy Technicians (CPTs) at one time. This regulation is designed to ensure that supervising physicians can provide adequate oversight and support to the pharmacy technicians they oversee. Each supervising physician must maintain a certain level of supervision to ensure the quality of patient care and medication management, and limiting the number to three allows for sufficient attention to be paid to each technician's work. This also aligns with the state's focus on maintaining safe and effective pharmacy practices. Understanding this limit is crucial for pharmacists and physicians involved in collaborative practice settings.
