says the correspondence “may lead
you to believe that registration with
them is required to comply with the
Health Practitioner Regulation

Accreditation Scheme.The above article was sent to subscribers in Pharmacy Daily's issue from 05 Oct 10 To see the full newsletter, see the embedded issue below or CLICK HERE to download Pharmacy Daily from 05 Oct 10
