Gov. Holcomb Signs Executive Order To Support Pharmacists

This executive order allows pharmacy students to join the fight against COVID-19.

(Indianapolis, Ind.) - Yesterday, an executive order was signed by Indiana Governor Holcomb to allow pharmacy students who have successfully completed all required course work to join the fight against COVID-19.

Executive Order 20-21 gives these students the opportunity to apply for a temporary license with the Professional Licensing Agency.

In addition to obtaining a temporary license, this executive order says that health care providers who cannot meet in-person to continue education requirements this year can do so via distance learning.

State employees, county employees, teachers, and other public employees who have a defined contribution account are permitted to access funds without penalty if they have been affected by COVID-19. 

Under executive order 20-05, Governor Holcomb extended the deadline for property tax payments. Executive order 20-21 extends the deadline for fees all other fees included on the property tax bill.
