Federal Pharmacy Chiefs Panel 2026

Course overview

0202-0000-26-168-L99-P/T The theme of the 2026 American Pharmacists Association Annual Meeting is "Redefining Possible" which appropriately serves as an opportunity for Federal Pharmacy senior leaders to personally update meeting attendees about significant strategic initiatives, challenges faced and opportunities for collaboration for all branches of the United States Armed Forces, U.S. Coast Guard, Department of Veterans Affairs and the United States Public Health Service. This panel session will provide an educational venue for pharmacists and pharmacy technicians to hear directly from their chief pharmacy officers. A moderator led panel discussion will address topics on significant collaborative opportunities among the federal pharmacy community, readiness, clinical pharmacy practice, artifical intelligence (AI) and its impact on federal pharmacy practice, creating healthy work environments and procedures and policies being developed that mitigate staff burnout. The session ends with the opportunity for audience interaction (Q&A) with the federal pharmacy chiefs.
