What they’re saying
“I enrolled in this workshop to receive basic knowledge for federal and state guidelines, regulations, and guidance for LTC billing and consulting. Instead, I received extensive knowledge of all LTC opportunities, resources, and built a plan to take and use at our pharmacy. Most importantly, I now have personal connections with speakers, fellow attendees, and endless opportunities for assistance developing our services. For that I will be forever grateful. Hands down the best workshop I've attended in my pharmacy career.”
— April Porter, Pharmacist, Palace Drug

The takeaway
NCPA's Business of Long-Term Care Workshop provides pharmacies with the knowledge, skills, and connections needed to successfully launch, expand, or improve their long-term care services and businesses to meet the growing needs of the aging population.
