Thank you and stay safe!

Little habits go a long way!

When it comes to maintaining your health, exercise is key. It can be adapted to any situation.

💪💙This Pharmacy Team is Incredible.💙💪

You are likely not aware that pharmacies are audited regularly by drug plans/third party payers to ensure proper documentation, submission for payment, etc.

Our little pharmacy was audited today by a very large plan (for the first time in five years by this payer). After the audit was complete we were told that we had only made ONE documentation error (did not write physician name) in everything that was reviewed. ONE!!!!!

The attention to detail is always obvious with this team - but to receive this kind of feedback goes a long way! Quote from auditor - “top five percent of pharmacies in NS”.

So thankful for these amazing people!
