Ep 140: "She’s Obsessed with Your Local Pharmacy!" with Amantha Bagdon

Are local independent pharmacies better than Big Corporate pharmacies? Have you ever thought about the amount of medications that go to waste every night at your pharmacy? Do you know how your prescription drugs make it to you? Or how your pharmacists make money? Or how your pharmacist is an entrepreneur! In the United States’ terribly fragmented, complicated healthcare system, pharmacies are often “the place” where we consumers meet our healthcare, so Rob and Amantha Bagdon, founder of RXPost, try to help you understand how it works and why they matter in your life and local economy. She is on a mission to revolutionize pharmacy management through RxPost, and thus create better healthcare outcomes for patients, and better businesses for the entrepreneurial pharmacist owners. She shares the challenges pharmacies face, the crucial role of technology in healthcare’s future via companies like RxPost, and her own amazing journey from pharmacy technician to CEO/Founder of a startup. From inventory innovations to calls for transparency, this conversation uncovers the urgent need for reform and the irreplaceable role of community pharmacies as community health hubs and our personalized healthcare.
