FDA’s Gail Bormel will join us again at CCH this year for a wide-ranging conversation with our CEO about the agency’s views and actions on pharmacy compounding.

This is just another reason (among many!) that you’ll want to attend APC’s annual DC fly-in for pharmacy compounders, September 19-20 at Hilton National Mall The Wharf. And lest you’ve forgotten, here are a few reminders of what you can accomplish in those two short days:

• Meet with your members of Congress. Show ’em you care enough about your patients and practice to fly to DC to brief them.
• Brief your members of Congress. Help ensure continued patient access to compounded medications.
• Spend time with our sponsors. Learn about the latest products and technologies (your patients and business will appreciate it).
• Network with your fellow compounders. You are never alone when advocating for compounding.

Have a question you’d like Gail to answer on Sept 19? Send it to scott@a4pc.org, and we’ll add it to the list.

In addition to Director Bormel, House Energy & Commerce Committee member Diana DeGette (D-CO), and Angels for Change’s Laura Bray are also scheduled to speak during the two-day event in DC.
