Several pre-convention workshops this year helped pharmacist-attendees find a baseline for growth and identify strategies for 2024 and beyond. “Pharmacy Inside-Out,” a brand-new, one-day workshop on Oct. 13 led by six influential community pharmacists revealed efficiencies and new services that can lead to new (and more reliable) revenue streams. It came on the heels of an Oct. 12-13 Pharmacy Ownership Workshop, sponsored by McKesson, for those looking to polish their management skills or even begin their journey to ownership. Attendees heard about the nitty-gritty on the loan approval process, licensure agreements, creating a start-up checklist, writing a business plan, and even how to engineer ownership for multiple locations. Oct. 12 also saw the Business of Long-Term Care Workshop, which helped attendees evaluate LTC services, operationalize LTC-at-home, and grow their LTC footprint in the community.
