Like so many of you, we’ve been continuing to follow reports in the media about pharmacy closures. It seems like each of those stories focuses on the obvious downside to the closures—a local place to get prescriptions filled is going away. While the inconvenience of having to get prescriptions filled miles away can be substantial

As a part of APhA’s commitment to serve every pharmacist and all of pharmacy, we have advocated for issues impacting you and your practice in your state. I’d like to introduce you to Dr. Michael Murphy who serves as APhA’s advisor for state government affairs.

Dear Member, 

Last week I spent a few days in Kansas City meeting with pharmacists, some of whom were part of the walk-out that has been reported in the media. 

I wanted to write today to share some reflections on my visit and what APhA is doing to be part of the solution.
