Pharmacy deserts are growing in Milwaukee, and patients are turning to independent pharmacies for access to vital, often lifesaving, medications. In this month’s issue of America's Pharmacist®, we spoke with the owners and managers of independents in the city about their role in the community.
In the magazine, we also review business considerations for opening a location in an underserved area and talk with a subject matter expert on the causes of pharmacy deserts and what policy options are on the table to address them. We’ve made that expert Q&A free to read online here.
