Specialty Pharmacy Times to be a media partner of NASP

Specialty Pharmacy Times and the National Association of Specialty Pharmacy (NASP) are partnering to better equip pharmacy businesses and clinicians amidst the growing number of complex medicines.

“As a media partner of NASP, Specialty Pharmacy Times will publish editorial content from a NASP leader in each issue, chronicling NASP's efforts to drive policy and set more comprehensive practice standards for specialty pharmacists," Dan Steiber, editor-in-chief at Specialty Pharmacy Times, said.

Additionally, the journal will conduct interviews with NASP members and cover of NASP's annual meeting.

The partners are discussing additional ways they can collaborate.

"This partnership provides a powerful platform for getting important clinical and business information unique to specialty pharmacy into the hands of the practitioners, payers and manufacturers who need it in order to provide high-quality patient care surrounding these medicines," Mike J. Hennessy Jr., president of Intellisphere Oncology and Healthcare Specialty Group, said.

Both partners provide knowledge about specialty drugs, which offer specific, enhanced professional practices focused on enhancing patient outcomes for complex health conditions and diseases.

“Our partnership with Specialty Pharmacy Times allows NASP to reach a broader audience and ensure that all stakeholders are informed and included as we ramp up our advocacy and other programs," NASP Chief Operating Officer Robert Fulcher said. "We are very pleased to have this unique media opportunity."
