ASHP reposted this
Twenty years ago, a conversation started on “Rationale for having a chief pharmacy officer in a health care organization” that was authored by Marianne Ivey and published in AJHP. Twenty years ago, Bill Evans was appointed as CEO at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital as one of our first pharmacist CEOs. This ASHP podcast provides Marianne and Bill’s Reflections on Health Care and the Chief Pharmacy Officer Role: 2004 to 2024. ASHP and our members have worked tirelessly to grow pharmacy services for the patients we all serve. Having a top leader for pharmacy in each health system that has the necessary prominence, skills, and influence is an essential foundation to advance our practice. From the growing acuity of patients, the increased cost and complexity of new medications, M&As, and financial models where pharmacy only becomes more important to overall health system sustainability, leadership is essential and our hospital and health-system pharmacy executives have answered the call. With ASHP’s members and our Section of Pharmacy Practice Leaders, Pharmacy Executive Leadership Alliance, Pharmacy Administration and Leadership Resident’s Collaborative, and Pharmacists in C-Suite’s initiative, ASHP will continue to support and shape a future vision for pharmacy executives. https://lnkd.in/eDFZS4CY #ASHP
