Big news for North Carolina pharmacies 👀

We’re excited to share a new partnership between NCAP and MedMe Health 🎉

Together, we’re launching a Clinical Services & Medical Billing Pilot to make it easier for NC pharmacies to deliver care, document efficiently, and get paid for pharmacist-provided services under statewide protocols ✅

Here’s what the pilot is designed to help you do:
💰Grow sustainable revenue beyond dispensing
🏪 Increase prescriptions and front-of-house sales by driving more patients into your pharmacy
⏱️ Reduce barriers to medical billing with protocol-aligned workflows and onboarding support
🧑‍⚕️ Practice at the top of your license and deliver more affordable, accessible care in your community

This pilot will focus on:
✅ Hormonal Contraceptives
✅ Ni****ne Replacement Therapy (NRT)
✅ Influenza Test-and-Treat

With additional support for any other pharmacist-led clinical service reimbursable in NC that your pharmacy may already be offering.
