Pharmacy Podcast Network

Pharmacy Marketing Simplified co-host Nicolle McClure talks with ZipWhip Jace Treat about the evolving patient's communications dynamic.  They discuss how communication on a personal and business level has evolved over the last five-ten years, and how pharmacy owners need to embrace this change in order to continue to communicate with their patients on a personal way. Using texting as a business communication tool allows the pharmacy owner to better connect with patients, can help with adherence issues, and capture a younger demographic. “Textpert” Jace Treat is the Pharmacy Industry Manager at Zipwhip, a company that allows businesses to send and receive text messages from an existing landline number. His team works with Pharmacies to enhance their patient engagement and communication strategy.    Nicolle McClure President

Eury about the facinating demographics of Millennials.  More than one-in-three American labor force participants (35%) are Millennials, making them the largest generation in the U.S. labor force, according to a Pew Research Center analysis of U.S. Census Bureau data. As of 2017 – the most recent year for which data are available – 56 million Millennials (those ages 21 to 36 in 2017) were working or looking for work.

DEA Documentation Requirements  Special Guest: Carlos Aquino from PharmaDiversion LLC™ In early 2017, we saw DEA changing their focus on pharmacy compliance. DEA increased their enforcement from the verification of the Combat Methamphetamine Certificate to a more formal on-site inspection. Now with the emphasis on the opioid epidemic, DEA is under increase pressure to look for abusers of the system. Naturally, the first place any inspector will start is the pharmacy. We have been spending more time updating our clients on this trend and providing as much information as we can find. Then I attended a conference last September and one of the presentations was on “Maintaining Your Pharmacy in DEA Compliance”.
