Episode 93 - Rethinking Pharmacy Models and Payment Structures with Nate Hux

When it comes to prescription drug prices, it can feel like the prices are made up and the copays don't matter. Pharmacist Nate Hux is helping to change that with Freedom Pharmacy and Pickerington Pharmacy. Freedom Pharmacy and Pickerington Pharmacy are both owned by Nate Hux but together help patients optimize what they pay for medications in what is a completely unique setup for pharmacies, unlike any other in America. Nate doesn't just talk about his business but also his path top get here (which involves working for some of the most well known chains) and how this model helps him find a fulfillment and happiness he never before had in practicing pharmacy. Honestly, this is a must listen for pharmacists with several great takeaways.
