AllPharm Association is a not-for-profit organization that preserves,
protects, and promotes community pharmacies and independent
chain pharmacies across the country. Our primary objectives
include legislative support, continuing education, and
employee benefit coverage at reduced rates for the
AllPharm Association membership.
At the heart of our efforts is our unwavering belief that
community pharmacies play a vital role in our nation's
healthcare delivery system. In the absence of a fair and
balanced marketplace, it is becoming increasingly
difficult for community pharmacies to continue
offering elevated standards of pharmacy practice
to the American public. AllPharm Association works
to correct that imbalance and put community
pharmacies back on a level playing field.
By leveraging the collective power of our membership, we bring a stronger, more unified voice to the legislative process. By offering new mediums for continuing education, we take the hassle out of licensing and put knowledge and growth at the forefront of our educational efforts. By utilizing group purchasing power and eliminating the "middle man" to reduce business expenses like employee benefits, we expand the resources available to community pharmacies everywhere.
Why Join AllPharm Association?
Laws and regulations have a direct impact on your business. Large-chain competitors, drug manufacturers, and insurance companies spend millions lobbying for their own rights and profits, often to the detriment of yours. And with continued consolidation in the pharmaceutical industry, increasingly questionable practices by pharmacy benefit managers and, of course, Medicare Part D, there has never been a greater need for advocacy on behalf of America's community pharmacies and independent pharmacy chains.
The good news is that you do have the power to change the direction of your future. With the resources made available to you through AllPharm Association, your opinions can be transformed into actions. By employing experienced lobbyists, legal counsel and public relations consultants, AllPharm Association coordinates appropriate responses on national issues and brings concerted advocacy efforts to you.
