Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Partnering With Your Pharmacist
Q: Can you tell us how pharmacists can help with that process?
Really depends upon the practice again. For a lot of practices, yes, I think the pharmacists take ownership and submitting the PAs, helping with appeals.
Partnering With Your Pharmacist
