About this event

Join Us for an Insightful Webinar: Why Long-Term Care (Closed Door) Pharmacy

Joint webinar hosted by SoftWriters and the National Community Pharmacist Association (NCPA)

Part 1 of a 2-part webinar series hosted by SoftWriters and NCPA, this webinar, hosted by Rebecca Snead, Director of Long Term Care Strategic Initiatives, NCPA, will explore the key differences between "Closed Door" pharmacy models (commonly referred to as Long-Term Care) and "Open Door" pharmacy models (also known as "retail" or "community" pharmacies).

In light of today's growing reimbursement challenges and the evolving demographics and behaviors of tomorrow's patients, many retail pharmacies are expanding operations to service patients in LTC community environments. As the aging population continues to grow and the landscape of care shifts, the demand for long-term care (LTC) and at-home dispensing models will become increasingly important and present a golden opportunity for pharmacies moving forward. Join us as we delve into the critical role of closed-door pharmacies in your community, address fundamental questions related to your business strategy, and explore key concepts to help you decide if closed-door is an excellent opportunity for your pharmacy.

Whether you are unfamiliar with closed-door models, are actively considering adding LTC facility patients, or have already ventured into closed-door with an LTC business unit, this webinar will provide valuable resources and education to help you evaluate opportunities. It will also provide practical steps you can take in today's pharmacy landscape.

In this Webinar You'll Learn:

  • The significance of the aging population and the rising demand for Long-Term Care (LTC) inpatient and at-home clinical care models
  • A comprehensive comparison of traditional open-door (retail) models vs closed-door (LTC) pharmacies, including operational differences between the two (volume and operational efficiency vs quality customer service).
  • The importance of community outreach and preparing for your community's current and future needs
  • Tips to consider when creating a business case and strategic plan when assessing and implementing a transition into closed-door dispensing
  • How diversifying and sharing resources across business units could have a significant impact on your business's long-term financial and operational success.

Don't miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights and practical knowledge to help you navigate your pharmacy's role in the evolving care landscape. Register now to secure your spot!
