I am leaving retail pharmacy after 15 years. I am opening a 403b pharmacy for a FQHC. I don't believe that retail pharmacy will be able to sustain itself with patient costs skyrocketing. I think people will become enraged or indifferent enough to allow the federal government to take over healthcare. How many times do we see people getting free prescriptions via government coverage that drive better cars than we do?

I know. OP said 403b 😂

Did you get a contract with federally qualified health center or are you still in the process? Are you working with a lawyer too?

I am actually going to be an employee of this federally qualified health center (FQHC). Right now, contract pharmacies are being railroaded by manufacturers and these savings aren't materializing and these populations are having trouble getting their medications.

so these same people are filling their prescriptions at your pharmacy.. imagine if they didn’t have medicaid or healthcare insurance or money!! they would not fill any prescriptions and ultimately you would go out of business!!! society will always need healthcare practitioners including pharmacists

Our techs are unionized and the only thing they have pushed successfully is to increase starting rates while screwing the techs with all of the experience and years of service. I am a member of professional organizations but I hate seeing someone getting paid not to work in a pharmacy (influencers, politicians or leadership) being responsible for improving my pharmacy work life.

Hello I am curious to know what people think of getting a masters degree in Data Science. I am looking at a program that is 32k which compared to others is not as expensive. I have experience with python and I work on my own projects but no professional experience. I am finding it extremely hard to break into an entry level data analyst role. I am hoping that a master degree would help with that process.
