Issue Brief - Main Street Pharmacy Access Act

AMCP Supports the Main Street Pharmacy Act

AMCP supports the Main Street Pharmacy Act. This bill will help ensure that Americans can continue to rely on pharmacists as essential partners in pandemic preparedness and response. The Act will also improve patient access to tests and treatments by authorizing pharmacists to provide these services and receive reimbursement under Medicare Part B. The Act addresses disparities in public health preparedness in medically underserved communities like rural areas by allowing these patients to seek care from their most accessible provider. 

AMCP calls on Members of Congress to cosponsor and ultimately enact the Main Street Pharmacy Act (H.R. 3164 / S. 2426), which will preserve access to essential care administered by pharmacists and increase the country's readiness for future public health emergencies.
