What happens if a pharmacy does not open within the required time frame?

If a pharmacy does not open within the required time frame, the license is automatically revoked. This policy is in place to ensure that pharmacies meet operational standards and contribute to the healthcare system within a specified timeline. It acts as a regulatory measure to maintain accountability among pharmacy license holders, ensuring that they are ready to provide critical healthcare services as intended.

While other options may highlight potential consequences or actions regarding pharmacy licensing, they do not reflect the automatic nature of the revocation process. The requirement to open a pharmacy after receiving a license underscores the importance of timely compliance with licensing regulations, thereby safeguarding public health and maintaining the integrity of pharmacy operations.
