Ep.4 Real Talk: Dr. Elsen Jacob - NYS Provider Status and The Pharmacist Coalition (CAP)

Provider Status refers to the federal recognition of healthcare professionals listed under section 1861 (s)(2) of the Social Security act and allows eligible services to be covered under Medicare Law. Unfortunately, pharmacists have yet to attain this recognition despite their reputation as medication experts and essential members of the healthcare team. The fight for Pharmacist Provider Status and expansion of pharmacists’ scope of practice has been ongoing for decades by various organizations, groups, and individual advocates and it has only become stronger thanks to the onset of new authorizations and responsibilities for pharmacists amid the COVID-19 pandemic. We invite Dr. Elsen Jacob, founder and president of the Coalition for the Advancement of Pharmacy Practice (CAP), as we learn more about Pharmacist Provider Status and what we can do to help advocate for it.
