How many days prior to opening a facility must a written application for a new permit be submitted?

Submitting a written application for a new pharmacy permit a specified number of days in advance of opening is crucial for regulatory compliance. In South Carolina, the requirement is to submit this application 45 days prior to the planned opening date. This timeframe allows the relevant regulatory body sufficient time to process the application, conduct any necessary background checks, and ensure that the facility meets all requisite standards and regulations before it begins operations.

This practice is designed to maintain safety and compliance within the pharmacy industry, ensuring that new facilities are appropriately vetted before they begin providing services to the public.
