Our mandate
We were given the mandate to negotiate the best service reimbursement agreements for our members in order to ensure that Quebec pharmacies remain financially sound. We also see to their proper application and support our members as they gain a better understanding of said agreements. Finally, we are taking action to ensure that community pharmacists are recognized as key professionals within Quebec’s healthcare system.
