Executive Vice President and CEO of the National Alliance of State Pharmacy Associations (NASPA), Krystalyn Weaver, PharmD, JD, joins host Justin Venneri for a discussion about pharmacists and expanding their scope of practice. She shares her insights on the role pharmacists can play in the healthcare system and highlights several positive developments recently, including Iowa changing the scope of practice to be a standard of care model and Tennessee passing a law that allows pharmacists to prescribe in a "slew of categories" without requiring additional regulations.
Additionally, Krystalyn shares her thoughts on the importance of making progress at the federal level to allow pharmacists to be reimbursed by Medicare (ECAPS (www.pharmacist.com/Advocacy/I...) ), the AMA's stance against the expansion of pharmacists' responsibilities, how to relieve the pressure on the pharmacy business model, what some pharmacies are doing to diversify their businesses and succeed, and much more.
