Director of Membership and Administrative Services at Kentucky Pharmacists Association - Frankfort, KY, US
The Kentucky Pharmacists Association is the largest professional organization representing pharmacists in the state and has been serving its members since 1879. KPhA is the voice of pharmacists from all practice settings concerning education, policy, legislative, and regulatory matters to shape and improve the future of healthcare across the Commonwealth and the United States. The voices of democracy speak loudly, especially when many voices join together. The Kentucky Pharmacists Association offers its members the opportunity to band together with like minded voices to be heard. By uniting members for a single cause, KPhA can benefit pharmacists in all practice settings. "No one else practices the profession in Kentucky but you and me, Kentucky's pharmacists. We must stay abreast of new regulations, new legislative issues, changing reimbursement issues, new technologies, and the changing needs of those we serve," explains Richard Slone, RPh., 2008-2009 President of KPhA. We also alert our members on rapidly changing healthcare issues via multiple technologies, publications and educational seminars. Throughout its history, the Kentucky Pharmacists Association has maintained a positive and respected position in the Commonwealth's political arena. To Kentucky legislators and Kentucky executive branch officials, KPhA is the voice of pharmacy concerning legislative and regulatory matters.
