Indiana Attorney General, Licensing Enforcement, and Indiana Board of Pharmacy

Complaint instructions checked against the linked sources, with limitations and known conflicts. Confirm that the authority covers your concern.

Authority and scope

Check the license and concern

Licensing Enforcement accepts complaints about licensed professionals and pharmacy facilities. Pharmacy credentials include pharmacists, interns, technicians and technician trainees. Pharmacy permits cover retail, hospital and other healthcare settings, plus closed-door, mail-order, infusion and sterile-compounding operations. Nonresident pharmacies shipping prescriptions to Indiana must register. Name the dispensing pharmacy and involved individuals separately.

Submission

How the official source says to file

  • Use the online link on Licensing Enforcement's page, or complete and postal-mail its paper form to Office of the Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division, Indiana Government Center South, 5th Floor, 302 West Washington Street, Indianapolis, IN 46204.
  • Find the respondent's name, license number and mailing address; the agency warns that missing identifiers may prevent investigation. Ask intake for help if you cannot locate them. Provide dates and supporting facts, and sign the certification. Review consent to information gathering and disclosure.
  • Do not include Social Security numbers. The form warns that providing one constitutes consent to its disclosure under the stated law.

Limits

What this route may not provide

The Attorney General represents the State in licensing matters, not the patient, and cannot obtain money damages through this process or bring criminal charges through Licensing Enforcement. A pharmacy complaint does not establish jurisdiction over every insurance, PBM or prescriber dispute.

Anonymity

Do not guess about confidentiality

The Attorney General does not accept anonymous complaints. Its page directs people seeking that option to PLA, which may complain on their behalf; limited information can impair investigation. Although investigation information is confidential, the form says a complete complaint copy goes to the respondent.

Complaint timing

Filing limit unconfirmed; investigation may take months

A filing deadline was not established by this check; ask promptly. The Attorney General says investigation can take up to 12 months depending on the allegations; this is not a filing limit.

Process

What may happen after filing

The Attorney General reviews and investigates. If the evidence warrants charges, the matter goes to the licensing board, which determines the outcome through its disciplinary process.
