Incoming PIC — Change of Employment

If you are no longer the Pharmacist in Charge of a pharmacy and would like to be removed from the pharmacy you are related to, see the following instructions to complete the online change of employment requirement.

If you are licensed as a Temporary Pharmacist, you may not serve as pharmacist-in-charge of a pharmacy with a temporary license issued under Board rule §283.12.

Pharmacists that are working at a facility that is not licensed by the Texas State Board of Pharmacy are not required to report their employment.


Instructions

Before you begin, make sure you have the pharmacy license number, type of pharmacy and the pharmacy name available. NOTE: If your pharmacist license is delinquent, inactive or expired, you will not be able to change your employment.

    Step 1

    Login with User ID (email) and Password through the Online Licensing System.


    Step 2

    Your license number is located on the right hand side of the page. If you do not see your registration, click link titled “add license to registration” under “Additional Activities” and follow the instructions.

    If you get an error message that reads “Entity already exists under another user ID”, this means your license is associated with another login or email address. Email licensinghelp@hpc.state.tx.us with subject line “ENTITY ALREADY EXISTS”. In the body of the email include:

      Full Name,
      Profession,
      License Number,
      and email address that you want your license(s) to be under.

    NOTE: it may take up to 48 hours to receive a response.


    Step 3

    Under “Manage your license information” section, select the “Add Pharmacist in Charge” then select “Next”.


    Step 4

    Under Contact Information, you will have an opportunity to update your personal or work email address, and phone numbers. Any deficiencies or issues with the change will be sent to the email listed. Select Next to proceed.


    Step 5

    Select the Incoming Pharmacist in Charge, attest that you have completed the required inventory and enter the date the inventory was completed. Select Next to proceed.


    Step 6

    To add your employment as PIC to the pharmacy select the type of pharmacy class and the pharmacy license number, select “Add” and next to proceed.

      Note: If you get an error message “This application must be cancelled until the current PIC has been removed”, you will not be able to add your employment until the outgoing PIC has removed their employment or if you receive an error “Your license does not have the necessary status required by the relationship role”, you will need to contact mailing@pharmacy.texas.gov.

    If you are listed as staff pharmacist with this pharmacy, you will need to complete and submit the addition of your PIC designation, then start a new Pharmacist Employment Relationships application to remove yourself as staff.


    Step 7

    Before you submit the application, verify the information listed is correct on the application summary page. If you need to change any information, select the “Edit” for the sections that need to be updated.


    Step 8

    Once you submit your application, you will receive a confirmation of the change with a copy of the application summary to the email account listed in your profile.

    Changes will show on the License and Verification page the following day.
