Long term care pharmacies provide specialized services to patients in institutional settings with distinct needs - they are elderly, frail, chronically ill, and can no longer care for themselves. The standard of service provided to these patients and the facilities that care for them goes far beyond a retail pharmacy. These specialized services keep patients healthier, safer, and help payers control pharmaceutical costs.
LTCPA advocates for the interests of the LTC pharmacy community and provides a unified voice on regulatory and market concerns including pharmacy costs, specialized pharmacy services and the Medicare Part D prescription drug benefit.
