📣 In the ever-changing world of healthcare, MGMA remains committed to our mission of serving our members as a trusted partner in achieving medical practice excellence. In response to changes in our membership, major shifts in our industry and what we’ve heard from our members about their challenges and successes, we’re making changes to our agreements with our state associations. 🤝 Better Alignment: We're enhancing our affiliate agreements with state MGMA associations for greater collaboration, support, and value to our members. 🔁 Dual Membership: All MGMA state associations will offer a dual national/state membership option. This means access to both national and state benefits through one streamlined process. Members can still opt for a national-only or state-only membership if it best suits your needs. Our goal is to provide both consistency and flexibility. 🌟 New Addition: We're thrilled to introduce a dual organizational membership offering for 2024, making national and local MGMA resources and benefits easily accessible to your entire organization. We value our state organizations and the value of a local MGMA presence. These new membership options benefit everyone by providing an MGMA membership product that best serves each member’s needs. If you have questions, reach out to us. We're here to discuss this exciting strategy with you!

The first day of our annual overseas conference was packed with interesting and useful presentations and here are just a few highlights from a broad range of speakers. Steve Brine MP, Chair of the Health and Social Care Select Committee, said that health and care can not work without pharmacy but that awareness of Pharmacy First needs to be raised, with possible advertising campaigns within pharmacy running alongside NHS England's campaign. He also wants goverment to address the challenges of medicine shortages if the true benefits of Pharmacy First are to be realised. Paul Rees the Chief Executive of the NPA - National Pharmacy Association said that there have been 1,000 pharmacy closures in the last decade and that a new deal for community pharmacy must be found. Carol Alexandre, VP of Global Accounts & Clinical Trial Supplies at IQVIA said that independents are dominating the pharmacy sector in the UK with almost 42% of the market, as they expand their service offering and continue to gain market share. Janet Morrison OBE of Community Pharmacy England said that according to research 87% of patients are satisfied with Pharmacy First and that negotiations for the next one year funding deal have already started. However she also warned the sector that high expectations must be managed - "it's about building blocks" Leyla Hannbeck of the Association of Independent Multiple Pharmacies (AIMp) called for the global sum to be doubled to deliver a 'fit for purpose' service-based contract for pharmacy - £1.2billion is the current shortfall for Community Pharmacy. There was also an ESG talk - Sustainability Opportunities in Integrated Healthcare - from Sinequanon Consulting Limited, UK. These are just a few of today's fascinating 'nuggets' and we are looking forward to many more tomorrow which will be chaired by Professor Mahendra G Patel OBE PhD Alumni Fellow NICE FHEA FRPharmS. There will also be access to a livestream from the conference and a link will be available in the morning. #SigmaSA #SigmaConf24 #pharmacyfirst #communitypharmacy

My colleague Jeffry Alan Peters and Tom Jackiewicz wrote a great article recently published by #hfma. This article delves into the 50-year success story of one Integrated Delivery Network (IDN) and its evolution in the healthcare sector. Peters and Jackiewicz not only highlight the milestones achieved but also shed light on the strategic decisions, adaptations, and innovations that paved the way for its longstanding success. Many #hospitals and #healthsystems should consider a similar approach as they develop their medical group strategy and strengthen their financial performance.

Talking compliance on the 17th July. I'll be thinking about .. "is the route to appropriate smooth", "what is best practice", "what do *suppliers* need to demonstrate in terms of capability", "how do global corporate functions keep on compliance policy track" "where are we now on the path" "what is the path ...". (and other stuff .... ). I might also be persuaded to talk about the compliance for meetings and events bot that is in early testing at the moment !! #ComplianceGeekSquad
