About Us
LTCPA advocates for the interests of the long term care (LTC) pharmacy community - a community that provides a critical component to the daily care of individuals living in LTC settings. LTCPA provides a unified voice on regulatory and market concerns including pharmacy costs, specialized pharmacy services and the Medicare Part D prescription drug benefit.

These specialized services include:
- Conducting regular safety reviews to determine if medication changes are needed
- Dispensing drugs in specialized packaging systems that reduce medication error risk
- Delivering standard and emergency medication supplies 24/7
- Preparing and dispensing intravenous medication solutions
- Providing on-site support/consultation to nursing facilities and other institutional providers
