Access to care often starts with a conversation.

During National Women’s Health Week, we recognize the role pharmacies play in helping patients take a more proactive approach to their health — from answering questions to providing guidance and support along the way.

For many women, the pharmacy is one of the most accessible and trusted points of care in their community.

Montana Family Pharmacies is proud to support independent pharmacies that make those everyday interactions more meaningful.

Independent pharmacy moves fast — and staying ahead takes more than experience alone.

Policy shifts, reimbursement changes, and operational challenges can affect your business quickly, especially when clear information is hard to come by.

Montana Family Pharmacies helps members stay informed with timely industry updates, transparent insight, and support from people who understand the realities of independent pharmacy.

Because stronger decisions start with knowing what’s changing — and what to do next.

Mental Health Awareness Month is a reminder that care goes beyond prescriptions.

Every day, patients come to their local pharmacy with questions, concerns, and challenges that don’t always fit neatly into a diagnosis. And more often than not, pharmacists are the first to listen.

From checking in on medication adherence to recognizing when something feels off, pharmacy teams play an important role in supporting patient well-being — both physical and mental.

At Montana Family Pharmacies, we support independent pharmacies with the tools and resources they need to care for their communities in every sense of the word.

Because better care starts with understanding the full picture.

Pharmacy challenges don’t stop at state lines.

Across the country, owners are navigating many of the same pressures — purchasing strategy, workflow efficiency, vendor relationships, and reimbursement trends — while continuing to manage the day-to-day demands of running a pharmacy.

That’s part of what makes a nationwide network so valuable.

Montana Family Pharmacies supports independent owners across the country by connecting them to shared insight, practical experience, and a community that understands the realities of independent pharmacy.

Because no matter where you operate, better decisions are easier when you have the right network behind you.

Access to care often starts at the pharmacy.

Patients trust their local pharmacists for clear information, convenient care, and guidance they can rely on.

During World Immunization Week, we recognize the pharmacists and pharmacy teams who make preventive care accessible in communities across the country.

Local pharmacies do far more than fill prescriptions.

Across the country, MFP member pharmacies are providing personalized care, answering questions patients can’t find elsewhere, and building lasting relationships with the people they serve.

We’re proud to support independent pharmacies that are committed to keeping care local and personal.

At Montana Family Pharmacies, our goal is to give members the tools, insight, and support needed to remain competitive while continuing to serve their communities.

What an amazing event! We loved every minute of connecting with our members, sharing industry insights, and inspiring one another.

As we know, independent pharmacy owners are navigating incredibly complex challenges — but we're stronger when they face them together.

From operational insights to industry advocacy, the ideas shared this week will continue shaping the work ahead.

We’re grateful to every member who contributes their experience, perspective, and leadership to this community.

We’ll see you next year in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, August 5–7, 2027, for the next MFP Member Meeting.

Today, independent pharmacy owners from across the country are gathering for the 2026 MFP Member Meeting.

For a few days each year, owners step away from the counter to connect with peers, exchange ideas, and discuss the realities shaping independent pharmacy.

The conversations that happen here often turn into the strategies and collaborations that shape the year ahead.

We’re grateful to bring this community together.

DEA inspections are often unannounced — and increasingly proactive.

For independent pharmacies, it’s not a matter of if a DEA inspection will happen. It’s when.

What is the difference between panic and confidence? Preparation.

Knowing the initial steps of an inspection can help:
Two or more DEA personnel arrive on-site and present credentials
A Notice of Inspection (DEA Form 82) is provided
Your team is expected to respond

One of the most overlooked gaps?

Staff isn’t always prepared to receive the DEA Form 82 or clear on who takes the lead. Those first critical moments set the tone for everything that follows.

That’s where structure and preparation matter.

MFP supports independent pharmacies with practical compliance guidance and real-world preparation, so your team has a plan when an audit happens.

Strong operators don’t get caught off guard. They stay ready.

Running a pharmacy means managing far more than what happens at the counter.

Owners are balancing purchasing decisions, staffing challenges, compliance requirements, and reimbursement changes — all while continuing to provide patient care.

Balancing those responsibilities is one of the biggest realities of independent pharmacy ownership.

Montana Family Pharmacies works alongside independent owners to help simplify the business side of pharmacy through operational insight, industry expertise, and ongoing support.
