AMCP Names Iulia Opran 2024-2025 Executive Fellow in Health Care Association Leadership
Alexandria, Va., Mar. 14, 2024 — AMCP has selected Iulia Opran, PharmD/MS candidate, as its 2024–2025 Executive Fellow in Health Care Association Leadership. This year-long training program provides a rich, in-depth learning experience for pharmacists interested in health care association leadership or managed care pharmacy.
I hope to use my pharmacy foundation and build the skill sets to become a leader in managed care and engage in health outcomes research,
said Opran. Being part of AMCP during pharmacy school allowed me to explore managed care and deepened my understanding of the intersection between pharmacy practice and health care policy, ultimately shaping my career trajectory towards becoming proficient in managing pharmaceutical care within the managed care landscape.
From being a Fellow for the FDA Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education to working as a community pharmacy technician to completing a pathway in Pharmapreneurship
at the University of Maryland School of Pharmacy, Opran will bring her diverse experience in the pharmacy field to the AMCP Executive Fellowship. She will graduate this spring with her PharmD and MS in Regulatory Science. In her downtime, Opran enjoys going to the gym, traveling, and trying new foods from different cultures.
AMCP created the Executive Fellowship in Health Care Association Leadership in January 2021 to help develop leaders in managed care pharmacy and association management by providing collaborative training and professional development. This year-long program covers a wide range of association leadership areas, including governance, strategy development and implementation, strategic communications, and operational leadership. Qualified candidates must have graduated or will graduate from an ACPE-accredited school of pharmacy prior to starting the fellowship.
Opran will begin her fellowship July 1, 2024, and will work directly with the AMCP CEO and other AMCP leaders.
