Walgreens hosted a pharmacy tour for Rep. Barbara Comstock (R-VA) on August 6, marking the 132nd RxIMPACT in-district activity of 2015. Rep. Comstock, a first-term member of Congress, is a cosponsor of H.R. 592, the pharmacist provider-status legislation. Rep. Comstock’s responsibilities on the House Science, Space and Technology Committee inspired her particular interest in the linkage between healthcare and technology as seen during the tour. NACDS President and CEO Steven C. Anderson, IOM, CAE, also participated in the tour to thank Rep. Comstock for her support of H.R. 592.
