The Advocacy Partnership
Since 1879, TPA has been the leading advocate for pharmacy in Texas. We are the one strong voice for all Texas pharmacy professionals and never stop fighting for your interests. Our lobbying in the last year was critical in:
- Securing a Medicaid fee increase for Texas pharmacists
- Increasing legislative interest in stopping unfair PBM practices
- Maintaining patient access to safe, cost-effective generic drugs
- Promoting the important role pharmacists serve in immunizations, health screenings and care of chronic conditions
- Winning a delay on the tamper-resistant pad implementation
- Getting a pharmacist voice on several state advisory committees
Effective advocacy represents a partnership combiing the strengths of TPA's strategic focus and the individual efforts of concerned members, who have tremendous influence on lawmakers as both pharmacy professionals and constituents. There are many ways in which you can help shape the law and rules that govern:
- your licensing and practice
- your patients’ care and health coverage
- your products;
- your store operations; and
- your professional future.
