Description

What’s stopping community pharmacy from finally moving from a prescription-based model to one that is patient-based? South of the border, the National Community Pharmacy Association has determined that the only way to expedite meaningful change in the way community pharmacy operates, is viewed and is valued is by facilitating rapid, large-scale change. Pharmacy doesn’t lack innovation, the group reasons, it lacks scaled innovation. That’s the premise behind the Flip the Pharmacy movement, a national initiative with the goal of transforming community pharmacy model from a prescription-based to a patient- based model. 

Almost 1,000 pharmacies in 40+ states are in the process of flipping their model via a 24-month guided program that supports independent pharmacies by providing SMART methodologies across six different domains: leveraging the appointment-based model, improving patient follow-up and monitoring, developing new roles for non-pharmacist staff, optimizing the use of technology, establishing relationships with other care providers and developing the business model and expressing value. 
It’s a scalable, easily-duplicated initiative that’s finally transforming community pharmacy in meaningful and significant ways.
Join us as one of the leaders in the FlipThePharmacy movement, North Carolina pharmacist and owner of five community pharmacies, Joe Moose, gives the keynote at our PharmacyU virtual conference on March 27. Learn more about this exciting initiative and how it just might be the breakthrough that can finally set pharmacists free to truly make a difference in patient care.
