Not If, But How: Scalable Compliance Packaging for the Viability of Independent Pharmacy

Troy TrygstadExecutive Director

CPESN

Lindsay DymowskiCo-Founder, President

Centennial Pharmacy Services

Catherine RonalderPharmacy Operations Manager

Cardinal Health

As models for care delivery evolve more rapidly than ever before, pharmacies must be ready to scale

and augment their operations to remain competitive. Compliance packaging programs can be one

of the most effective ways to gain and retain new customers, while solidifying your bottom line and

allowing pharmacists to act as frontline providers.

Join moderator Troy Trygstad, Executive Director of CPESN with Lindsay Dymowski, PharmD,

co-founder of Centennial Pharmacy Services and Catherine Ronalder, Pharmacy Operations Manager

at Cardinal Health for an informative lunch where you’ll learn the benefits of compliance packaging

in-house versus utilizing a central fill model, and identify what solution is best for your pharmacy.
