Signing for a Pharmacist in Idaho: what the physician takes on
The agreement is mandatory for the clinician, which makes its duties mandatory for you. Idaho calls the instrument a Written Collaborative Pharmacy Practice Agreement.
Represents Idaho's collaborative pharmacy practice tier (authorized since at least 1998), not ordinary licensure — base dispensing and Idaho's separate independent pharmacist-prescribing rules (IDAPA 24.36.01.350, for specific drug categories) are out of scope here. No independence pathway away from the CPA itself was found.

Prescriptive authority
Covered by the practice agreement · controlled substances permitted
May provide patient care and drug-therapy-management services under a written collaborative practice agreement with one or more prescribers (IDAPA 24.36.01). Controlled-substance schedule limits within a CPA were not separately confirmed in this research pass.
Written agreement
Required
Practice ownership (corporate practice of medicine)
Non-licensee ownership permitted — Idaho's Board of Pharmacy rules do not require pharmacist ownership of the permit-holding entity; a licensed pharmacist-in-charge retains professional control over dispensing.
Not independently confirmed against current IDAPA 24.36.01 text in this research pass — treat the ownership breadth as likely but unverified.

About Idaho's rules
Idaho APRNs (NP/CRNA/CNM/CNS) have full independent practice authority. The Idaho Board of Medicine formally disavowed corporate-practice-of-medicine enforcement in March 2016 — physicians, NPs, PAs, and (per this research pass) even non-licensees may generally co-own a standard business entity, so long as licensed professionals actually deliver the care.
