H.583 (signed June 15, 2026, eff. July 1, 2026) newly restricts private-equity/hedge-fund control and requires majority physician ownership/governance of medical practices — a major shift from Vermont's historically permissive, no-common-law-CPOM stance. All 4 APRN roles (NP, CRNA, CNM, CNS/PMHNP) share one 2,400-hour/2-year transition-to-practice threshold (26 V.S.A. § 1614) — treat as newly in effect and monitor implementing guidance.
Pharmacist
Represents Vermont's Collaborative Practice Agreement (CPA) tier under 26 V.S.A. § 2023, not ordinary pharmacist licensure — base dispensing and statutory protocol-based authority (e.g. vaccines, naloxone) need no agreement and are out of scope here. Pharmacists may not initiate antibiotic therapy or prescribe regulated drugs/biologics except under a CPA. No board-certification or numeric per-prescriber cap found.

Prescriptive authority
Covered by practice agreement · no controlled-substance authority
Statute text located does not affirmatively authorize controlled-substance prescribing under a Vermont CPA — coded as not allowed pending confirmation; verify against current Board of Pharmacy rules before relying on this for a controlled-substance scenario.Practice ownership (CPOM)
Non-licensee ownership permitted — No pharmacist-ownership requirement identified for Vermont pharmacy permits; H.583 targets 'medical practices', not pharmacies
Pharmacy ownership was not separately researched in the depth given to the medical/APRN CPOM entries above — flagged as lower confidence.Supervision ratio
