The primary care shortage is forcing a major shift in healthcare delivery. But are we overlooking one of the most readily available solutions? Pharmacists are already embedded in communities, trained in patient care, and uniquely positioned to bridge access gaps—yet regulatory and reimbursement structures continue to limit their role. It’s time to rethink how we integrate pharmacy into patient care by: ▶️ Expanding pharmacists’ ability to manage chronic conditions like diabetes and hypertension. ▶️ Restructuring payment models to support clinical pharmacy services. ▶️ Investing in pharmacy-driven preventative care to ease the burden on overextended healthcare systems. The demand for whole-person health approaches is growing, and pharmacy is ready to take on more responsibility. The industry just has to make room for it. #Healthcare #PharmacyInnovation #PrimaryCare
