About this listen

Turn up the volume for this eye-opening episode as Justin Baker meets with Ronna Hauser, SVP of Policy and Pharmacy Affairs for the NCPA.

Ronna shares that through her joint research efforts with USC, they have not only uncovered that a quarter of the US population reside in a pharmacy shortage area, but also confirmed that over 30% of census tracts are completely reliant on their independent pharmacy to avoid becoming a pharmacy shortage area.

Their analysis demonstrates that this research can affect all of us, through shifts in pharmacy access standards, legislative and policy making recommendations, reimbursement thresholds, mail order threats as well as the acceleration of clinical service offerings. Tell your friends!
