NCPA v. Azar
NCPA is suing the government to end DIR fees. Doing so has been our top priority since 2014. We tried every year of the outgoing administration to persuade the Department of Health and Human Services to adopt new rules to remedy the problem. That effort nearly succeeded in 2019, only to have it die because of opposition from the White House. Having exhausted every effort to work through the legislative and regulatory processes, community pharmacies can wait no longer.

NCPA’S Value to me:
It's a long trip, but the Whites try to get to as many conventions as they can. "It's kept me active politically," Dirk says. "There's that old saying – 'get into politics or get out of pharmacy.' It's true. Your business depends on it. NCPA keeps that going for us."
