AMCP supports the Ensuring Community Access to Pharmacist Services Act. This bill will help ensure that Americans can continue to rely on pharmacists as essential partners in pandemic preparedness and response. The ECAPS 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 ECAPS 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.
