It's that time of year again: We've opened our annual financial survey for NCPA member pharmacies to fill out. The data NCPA collects in our financial survey is fundamental to our advocacy work. We use it to communicate with policymakers and to build our annual NCPA Digest, sponsored by Cardinal Health, the most comprehensive analysis of the independent pharmacy industry.
Don't just take it from us; Trent McLemore, PharmD, director of pharmacy at Star Discount Pharmacy, fills out our financial survey every year. He said our annual benchmarking report "stands alone as the best way to evaluate the independent community pharmacy industry. The insights gained from the Digest Financials are essential tools in both pharmacy business management and advocacy."
Every pharmacy that fills out the survey will get a free, personalized report assessing their operating financials, noting what numbers are above or below average and areas where you may have room for improvement. To get this valuable report for free, complete the survey by June 15.
In addition to the benchmarking report, pharmacies that fully complete our financial survey will also receive a $100 gift card.
If you would like a spreadsheet version of the survey to report data for multiple pharmacy locations, or you just prefer it, please email Lisa Schwartz at [email protected] or call 703-838-2684.
