Here at APC, we do a lot with a little: we’re a small organization and our resources aren't bottomless. But we’re scrappy, and when we tackle an issue, the results are usually good for your compounding practice. 

Most recently, we’ve [launched a portal](https://a4pc.org/2022-04/finally-a-patient-reported-outcomes-platform-for-ompounding/) to help our members aggregate patient-reported outcomes to prove to FDA that compounded medications are benefitting millions of patients. Via our Legal Action Fund, we’ve filed two recent amicus briefs in court cases, one defending [your right to compound methylcobalamin](https://a4pc.org/2022-04/apc-to-submit-amicus-brief-to-preserve-california-patients-access-to-glutathione-and-methylcobalamin/) and another [addressing ambiguity](https://a4pc.org/2022-05/apc-amicus-brief-addresses-ambiguity-in-fda-insanitary-conditions-guidance/) in FDA’s insanitary conditions guidance.

We’re also:

- Proposing to TRICARE a pilot project to demonstrate that compounded medications can help the agency achieve desired health outcomes and contain costs.
- Talking with FDA about [the practical flaws in its “final” GFI 256](https://a4pc.org/2022-05/apc-cvm-leaders-meet-discuss-gfi-256/) on veterinary compounding—flaws that may impede animal healthcare.
- Developing a “decision points document” to assist state boards of pharmacy in implementing and enforcing USP 800.
- Proposing a DQSA fix that would eliminate the 25-year-old MOU, mandate reporting to state regulators by pharmacies that ship more than 50 percent of their compounded medications out of state, and [create in law a narrow path for 503As to provide shortage drugs](https://a4pc.org/urgentuse) to hospitals and clinics.
- Advocating to enable 503Bs to manufacture generics that have been off-patent for 20+ years, are on FDA’s essential drug list, and do not have a U.S.-based manufacturer. Our intent with this is threefold: address drug supply chain issues, stimulate stateside manufacturing, and strengthen the 503B business model.
- Working with FDA and Congress to insist that compounding pharmacies’ 483 files be closed out within a more reasonable timeframe.
- Providing our members [an online payments platform](https://a4pc.org/2022-03/healnow-is-apcs-preferred-online-payments-platform/) that is integrated with the major compounding softwares.

**But none of this stuff happens without funding—and right now, APC is running low on funds to support our advocacy work.**

*If you find the list above impressive—if you think the work we’re doing benefits your patients or your profession or the pharmacy or facility you work for—please click below:*

OneFund is supported by gifts from members like you. It’s how we pay for our advocacy work. Right now—almost halfway into the year—OneFund has only raised 15% of its 2022 funding goal. That means our ability to keep doing what we’re doing is at risk.

Please invest now, so we can keep watching out for you.
