Legislative Advocacy
PBMs have lobbyists. Now so do you. WSPC actively monitors and engages on policy that affects your reimbursements.
PBMs and chains have lobbyists. You have WSPC.
Independent pharmacies face a regulatory environment that tilts against them — reimbursement rates, DIR fees, PBM audit practices, and dispensing fee legislation all affect your bottom line. Individual owners rarely have the time or resources to engage with these processes effectively.
Independent pharmacies face a regulatory environment that increasingly favors large chains and PBMs. WSPC's advocacy team monitors federal and state legislation, engages with regulators, and coordinates with pharmacy associations to represent the interests of independent pharmacy owners. When policy threatens your reimbursements or your ability to operate, WSPC is in the room fighting for you.
