Drug Store News shared an article about how next-generation pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) LucyRx launched the Sustaining Pharmacy Access & Rural Care (SPARC) Program to support the viability of independent pharmacies in underserved areas.
With an estimated 15.8 million people living in pharmacy deserts — areas with limited access to essential pharmacy services — the SPARC Program addresses one of the most pressing problems in American healthcare by increasing per-prescription reimbursements, promoting community-based healthcare initiatives and advocating for legislative reforms.
“When pharmacies close, people lose their lifeline to care — and we’re changing that,” said LucyRx CEO David Blair. “With a commitment to community healthcare and independent pharmacists, the SPARC Program is just the beginning of how LucyRx improves prescription care and makes a real difference for patients.”
