Public comments are solicited on proposed new standards and proposals to revise, reaffirm or withdraw approval of existing standards simultaneously with the NCPDP ballot period. Non-NCPDP members choosing to submit comments will be charged $200.00 per ballot period. This fee allows the non-member the ability to obtain copies of the NCPDP produced documents for that ballot period. The ballot period includes the new ballots and any recirculation ballots that may take place. If you are not an NCPDP member but wish to supply comments to any or all of these ballots, please complete the registration form here.

The NCPDP Ballot period opens on Thursday, March 22, 2012 and closes Monday, April 23, 2012. Should you wish to submit an Official Public Comment, the Council must receive your Official Public Comment no later than 5:00 p.m. PDT/ 6:00 p.m. MDT/ 7:00 p.m. CDT/ 8:00 p.m. EDT on Monday, April 23, 2012.
