Provocative 90-minute panel discussion will look at Pharmacists Today…5 Years from Now…10 Years from Now and Beyond at NCPDP's 2024 Annual Technology & Business Conference

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., April 11, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- NCPDP has selected six industry leaders to offer a thought-provoking look at the future of pharmacy interoperability and innovation and the evolving role of pharmacists for its Opening Keynote Panel on Tuesday, May 7th at its 2024 Annual Technology & Business Conference, Innovation Starts Here, at the Westin Kierland Resort & Spa in Scottsdale, Arizona. The opening session will be a provocative 90-minute discussion on Pharmacists Today…5 Years from Now…10 Years from Now and Beyond with perspectives from government, pharmacy, patient advocacy, industry analyst and more.

Panelists will look down the road at key topics including reimbursement; workforce challenges and opportunities; policy/regulation; and innovation for predictions such as: How much time will pharmacists spend dispensing five years from now? How will the clinical pharmacy model be different from the retail model? When will pharmacists be paid for clinical services? How will artificial intelligence (AI) change the role of pharmacists and their engagement with patients? Where will we be with health equity?

NCPDP is advancing strategic initiatives to ensure that pharmacists have the interoperability and data needed to provide clinical services as an integral part of the patient care team. - Lee Ann Stember, President & CEO, NCPDP
