    Will AI Get Pharmacists Paid Before It’s Too Late? | APhA CEO Michael Hogue

    Pharmacists have been saving lives and improving patient outcomes for decades, but much of that value remains invisible to CMS, payers, and the broader healthcare system.  Every day, pharmacists identify dangerous interactions, optimize medication therapy, prevent medication-related harm, improve adherence, and help patients avoid hospitalizations and readmissions. Yet many of these interventions never become measurable data that follows the patient or demonstrates what the pharmacist prevented.  Could artificial intelligence finally change that?  Dr. Michael Hogue, Executive Vice President and CEO of the American Pharmacists Association, joins RxRewired to discuss how AI could connect pharmacist interventions to patient outcomes and make their clinical value impossible to ignore.  In Part One, we explore:  • Whether pharmacists should be afraid of AI  • Why pharmacists’ clinical value often remains invisible to CMS and payers  • Using AI to connect pharmacist interventions with patient outcomes  • Paying pharmacists for outcomes rather than transactions  • Credentialing and recognizing pharmacists alongside other healthcare providers  • Expanding reimbursement beyond today’s limited incident-to billing pathways  • Why payment policy must evolve alongside automation  AI may automate more of pharmacy’s transactional work. But it could also help prove the value pharmacists have been providing all along.  The question is whether healthcare will act on that evidence and create a meaningful payment pathway before it is too late.  Subscribe for candid conversations with the leaders shaping what comes next in healthcare.

    Pharmacist Lawmaker Says We Are Our Own Worst Enemy | Gallop Franklin II

    Guest: Representative Gallop Franklin II, Florida House District 8 He's a pharmacist. He's also a sitting Florida State Representative. And he says the biggest threat to the pharmacy profession isn't insurers, isn't the government, it's pharmacists themselves.  In this episode of RxRewired, Rep. Gallop Franklin II (FL House District 8) lays out an uncomfortable case: pharmacy is one of the most trusted professions in healthcare, and one of the least politically powerful. Not because of a lack of skill or public trust, but because the profession is fragmented, disengaged, and stuck defending old turf instead of proving new value.  We get into:  Why pharmacists are trained for far more than they're legally allowed to do Why community, hospital, clinical, and independent pharmacy don't act like one profession What happens when a workforce waits to engage in politics until it's personally threatened Where AI fits into the next 10 years of pharmacy jobs and patient access What one pharmacist, today, can actually do about any of this  This isn't a policy explainer. It's a call-out. Representative Gallop Franklin II: Official Florida House Profile  Hosts: Madeline Camejo & Jeremy Espeut  Produced by: Scott Kjelson  Edited by: Scott Kjelson & Jeremy Espeut    Recorded at: Epic Podcast Studios  Presented by: Florida Society of Health-System Pharmacists (FSHP)
