ALEXANDRIA, Va. - The National Community Pharmacists Association is launching Fix DIR Day today, June 27. The association is asking stakeholders to contact members of the Senate Finance Committee and ask them to address pharmacy direct and indirect remuneration fees in an upcoming drug pricing package. “Fix DIR Day will remind legislators that, as pharmacy DIR fees have grown increasingly oppressive in the last three years, perhaps as many as 5% of all pharmacies including both big chains and regional and community pharmacies have closed their doors,” said Douglas Hoey, CEO. “If leaders in Washington truly want to lower drug costs, they must fix pharmacy DIR.”
