The mission of the Iowa Pharmacy Association is to promote safe and effective medication use to improve the health of patients by serving the pharmacy profession.
IPA’s Leadership Message:IPA’s Annual Report to the membership is an opportunity to share our Association’s accomplishments, activities, milestones, and hurdles over the past 12 months. This report focuses on the previous administrative year: July 1, 2013 – June 30, 2014.
Since the unification of the Iowa Society of Health-system Pharmacists (ISHP) and the Iowa Pharmacists Association (IPhA) in 1999, the leadership of IPA has continually embraced the opportunity to represent pharmacists in all practice settings. Now more than ever, having ‘One Voice. One Vision.’ allows the IPA Board of Trustees to engage in thoughtful dialogue regarding the profession of pharmacy’s opportunities and responsibilities as healthcare delivery and payment are reformed at the state and national level.
Similarly, within IPA, the four affiliated organizations: IPA Foundation, Collaborative Education Institute, Iowa Pharmacy Recovery Network, and PNI, Inc; each contribute to the collective achievements of IPA and are important to the overall mission and vision of the Association. You will see IPA-F, CEI, IPRN, and PNI referenced in this report.
We are fortunate in Iowa to have a dedicated Board of Trustees as well as a strong and active network of pharmacists, technicians, and student pharmacists across the state that serve the profession as leaders in their practice sites, their companies, and their communities.
To address the PBM legislation during this year’s Legislative Session, over 500 pharmacy professionals personally communicated with their legislators and the Governor’s office. This network of grassroots advocates, which included pharmacists from all practice settings, was a significant factor in the unanimous passage and Governor’s signature of the bill. Time and time again, the Iowa Pharmacy Association demonstrates its relevance to pharmacists across the state by promptly responding to external pressures, while dedicating resources to proactively position pharmacists as health care providers in today’s health care system. Current proactive initiatives include the New Practice Model pilot project, Trinity ACO project, joint telepharmacy and compounding task forces with the Iowa Board of Pharmacy, and expanding IPA’s Educational Expo to a Midwest Pharmacy Expo.
Thank you for the opportunity to serve IPA and the pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, and student pharmacists of this great state. We hope you enjoy this year’s Annual Report to the membership.
Sincerely,
2013-2014 IPA Executive CommitteeJulie Kuhle, RPh, Chairman of the BoardMichele Evink, MS, PharmD, CGP, FASCP, PresidentJohn Swegle, PharmD, BCPS, President-electRandy McDonough, PharmD, MS, CGP, BCPS, Speaker of the HouseSteve Firman, RPh, MBA, FAPhA, TreasurerKate Gainer, PharmD, Secretary

• IPA staff and lobbyists worked on key legislative issues during 2014 Legislative Session:
PHARMACY BENEFITS MANAGER (PBM) REGULATIONHF 2297, a bill regulating PBM MAC pricing, and creating transparency and oversight requirements for PBMs by the Iowa Insurance Division, passed with unanimous, bipartisan support in both the Iowa House and Senate. On March 14th, Governor Branstad signed the bill into law, which will go into effect July 1st. (Pictured bottom right)
Another PBM bill, HF 2433, related to mail order pharmacy and data privacy of prescription claim data, did not survive the second funnel this session.
IPA’s grassroots network grew to over 300 members communicating with their legislators on this issue. During each committee meeting and floor debate,
legislators spoke of these communications and the importance of having local access
to pharmacists in their districts and communities. IPA also placed a full page
ad in the Des Moines Register to thank Iowa Legislators for their bipartisan,
unanimous support of HF 2297.
PRESCRIPTION DRUG MONITORING PROGRAM
Pursuant to legislation passed in 2014, the Iowa Board of
Pharmacy will have authority to share data from the
Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PDMP) with
bordering states and Kansas.
DHS BUDGET - MEDICAID REIMBURSEMENT - MTMIPA worked with IME to support legislative language that converts prescription reimbursement from a state-based AAC formula to the National Average Drug Acquisition Cost (NADAC), to allow the state to meet the FUL (federal upper limit) requirement in the aggregate but not be subject to individual FULs becoming effective July 1st. This conversion is budget neutral to pharmacies and the state. Pursuant to the second cost-of-dispensing survey, a new dispensing fee will be implemented in this equation.
The state also approved a funding increase to support a state-wide medication disposal program from the Board of Pharmacy.
• IPA’s 15th Annual Political Leadership Breakfast featured Susan Winckler, Senior Advisor at Leavitt Partners, as well as a member of the firm’s FuturePanel. Susan provided insight into the Affordable Care Act and policies impacting change in healthcare and discussed true opportunities as well as threats that exist in today’s evolving healthcare system for pharmacists. (Middle picture on page 7: Kate Gainer, Susan Winckler and Michele Evink, with IPC Sponsors Brad Young and Mike Mitchell).
• For just the 2nd time in 37 years, blizzard conditions led to the cancellation of IPA’s 37th Annual Legislative Day. In lieu of over 250 pharmacists and student pharmacists in white lab coats descending on Capitol Hill to meet with their legislators, IPA conducted a ‘Virtual Grassroots’ campaign, focused on PBM regulation, with over 300 IPA grassroots messages to legislators.
• Student pharmacists from UI and Drake partnered with IPA to host student screenings at the capitol. Over 100 legislators and capitol staffers engaged with the students to learn about pharmacist-provided care in today’s healthcare system. (Pictured top right)
Articulating pharmacy’s vision for the role of pharmacists in today’s evolving health care system requires an active presence before public and private sector policy making bodies. It also demands that IPA pursue changes in a way that embraces a spirit of cooperation and collaboration as well as a global perspective on issues which confront all health care professionals.
IPA GRASSROOTS ADVOCACY = STRENGTH IN NUMBERS

• The Iowa Pharmacy Political Action Committee (IPPAC) successfully raised $20,500 through generous donations from pharmacy professionals. IPPAC supports state legislative candidates that support pharmacy issues, and contributed $8,500 to legislative campaigns in 2013.
• IPA worked with the Iowa Insurance Division to amend administrative rules related to PBMs, strengthening language on PBM audits, timely pricing updates, commissioner investigations and PBM compliance, complaints, and contract termination.
• IPA worked with Iowa Medicaid Enterprise to ensure a smooth transition to reimbursement methodology of AAC (actual acquisition cost) + dispensing fee of $10.12, a $0.10 increase approved by the legislature in 2013. IPA worked closely with IME to eliminate problematic FULs that were below the state’s AAC.
• IPA members Jim Miller (Dubuque) and Ed Maier (Mapleton) were reappointed by Governor Branstad to serve on the Iowa Board of Pharmacy for their 2nd and 3rd three-year terms, respectively.
• John Forbes, IPA past-president, completed serving his first term in the Iowa House of Representatives.
• IPA worked with APhA, ASHP, NASPA and PAPCC (Patient Access to Pharmacists’ Care Coalition) to educate Iowa’s Congressional Delegation on the Pharmacist Provider Status bill, HF 4190, introduced in March to amend title XVIII of the Social Security Act to provide coverage under the Medicare program for pharmacists’ services.
• Legislative Advisory Committee Chair Steve Firman, RPh, led a delegation of Iowa pharmacists to Washington, DC to participate in NCPA’s 2014 Legislative Conference. Student pharmacists Matt Farley, Natalie Schmitz, Laura Vollmer, and Luke Watson, recipients of IPA’s Karbeling Leadership Award, experienced advocacy at the federal level during their attendance at this conference.
