Pharmacists, Pharmacy and Idaho
Providers of Health Care Today and Tomorrow

College of PharmacyIdaho State University
• First College on the ISU campus - 1920• First College in the North West• Early adopter of the 4 year program – 1922• 7th College in the US to adopt Pharm.D. as the
only degree available.• Most successful and one of two remaining
non-traditional programs
3
College of Pharmacy
• Admitted 60 students in 2008• Admitted 70 students in 2009 – 2011• Potential to grow to 100 students with current
facilities.
4
College of Pharmacy
• Pocatello, Meridian, Coeur d’Alene • Meridian and the new facility• Member of the Division of Health Sciences
5
Idaho’s College of Pharmacy

*Fourth highest ranking “hot-job” per Idaho Department of Labor. Criteria: number of jobs, fastest growing, highest pay
8
Conclusions: BLS Occupation Projections
• US - pharmacist employment expected to grow much faster than total employment, 2008-2018
• Idaho 2008-2018– Total Idaho employment to grow much faster than US– Idaho pharmacist employment growth nearly double
growth of total Idaho employment– Idaho pharmacist employment to grow much faster
than both US pharmacist and total US employment
9
Conclusions: BLS Occupation Projections
• Factors likely to reduce demand for pharmacists – BLS expects mail-order and online pharmacies to grow
much faster than community pharmacies – BLS expects greater automation of drug dispensing– BLS expects greater employment of technicians/aides
Why hasn’t more automation been deployed? Impact of more national involvement in healthcare?Role of electronic medical records?
10
Conclusions: BLS Occupation Projections
• Factors likely to increase demand for pharmacists– Aging of the population– Continued expansion of the potential for new drugs to
treat diseases– Continued expansion of the role of pharmacists in
primary and preventive care– New opportunities in disease management, research,
informatics– New opportunities for pharmacists in managed care and
elsewhere to analyze trends and patterns in medication use and in pharmacoeconomics
11
Conclusions: BLS Occupation Projections
• Notice that the BLS identified factors increasing demand for pharmacists also deepen pharmacy job content, adding to pharmacist responsibilities
• Pharmacy professional societies pushed for the PharmD and are pushing for more pharmacist responsibilities
• George Halvorson, Chairman, CEO Kaiser Health Plan
“….clinical pharmacists are the most underutilized member of the healthcare team.” (6 April 2009)
Will more national involvement in healthcare lead to job deepening & more clinical responsibilities for pharmacists?
12
Impact of Current Recession
• Recession appears to be impacting pharmacy, ie, some slowdown, but that impact appears to be limited so far.
• Consistent with notion that healthcare is one of the least impacted sectors during economic downturns
• However, pharmacy & healthcare in general are not totally immune to recessions, particularly severe downturns.
13
Impact of Current Recession
• Anecdotal Reports: Idaho– ISU COP placed all May 2010 graduates– Rite-Aide store closed Pocatello Spring 2010– Less part-time hours
• Anecdotal Reports: USA– Chains slowing expansion plans– Hospitals hiring less– Private school rumors

Effects of Price and Quantity on Retail Prescription Sales Growth
Since 1993 about three-fourths of total growth of prescription drug spending has been real growth, meaning growth in utilization/quantity of drugs actually sold and consumed. Through 2019 prescription drug spending is expected to grow at about 5-6% annually.

Pharmacist Shortage
• Short Run Demand: Pharmacist Shortage
• Supply Response to Pharmacist Shortage
• Pharmacist Demographics
19
Pharmacist Shortage
• National pharmacist shortage recognized 1998-99
• Major national report completed in 2000*
• The current shortage may have been exacerbated by the switch to the longer 4-year PharmD degree
Note: there were earlier pharmacist shortages, e.g. 1991

ADI Meaning
1.0 Supply surplus: demand is much less than the pharmacist supply available
2.0 Moderate supply surplus: demand is less than the pharmacist supply available
3.0 Balance between demand & supply
4.0 Moderate demand shortage, some difficulty filling open positions
5.0 High demand shortage: difficult to fill open positions
Aggregate Demand Index (ADI)
ADI survey utilizes a 5-point scale where 3.0 indicates a balance in demand/supply, higher values a shortage and lower values a surplus

Workforce Summary• Review of available data indicates
– Some easing of pharmacist shortage in nation & Idaho.
– Significant growth in pharmacist supply
7,000 graduates 2001, 11,500+ by 2012• Caveats
– Important to review data but….
– Future role of automation/technology
– Future impact of changing healthcare system

Pharmacy’s Future
• Pharmacy’s evolution• Legislative changes• Professional changes• Roles• ISU College of Pharmacy
Evolution of Pharmacy• Pharmacy is much more than dispensing pills
– Although….3.6 BILLION Rx’s filled in US in 2009 – 12 Rx’s for every US citizen
• Pharmacists play integral role in health care delivery– Most visited health professional
• Medication mis-adventures result in $70 billion+ in excess expenditures– Pharmacy’s role
• Medication Therapy Management• Health care quality
Legislative Changes
• Practice evolution– Medicare Part D– Legislation in Idaho
• Pharmaceutical care rule• Telepharmacy• E-prescribing• Limited prescribing by pharmacists
– Immunizations, fluoride• Registration of non-dispensing outlets that provide
pharmaceutical care only• Practitioner status
Residency Requirements
• Several major pharmacy organizations endorse the requirement of a residency for entry into clinical pharmacy practice– Many residency types – cardiology, psychiatric,
oncology, ambulatory care, primary care, managed care, pediatrics, infectious disease, etc.
• Federal funding for residencies• An even more qualified professional
Health Care Reform and Pharmacy• Changing role of pharmacist
– Collaborative care delivery– Medical home– Underserved populations – 340B pharmacies – Rural issues
• Care delivery extension– Immunizations– Protocol-driven patient management
Role of the College• Present
– Teaching – state-wide– Practice – state-wide, VA– Service – Meridian compounding lab– Research
• College-State Collaborations – top DUR program in nation• Basic science programs• Boise VA• Clinical trials – ACCORD, ALLHAT, AIM-HIGH• Care delivery - ECHIP• Quality - TLC
• Future– Division of Health Science focus on rural care delivery– Telepharmacy?
