The Academy of Managed Care Pharmacy (AMCP) at UH College of Pharmacy strives to educate student pharmacists about the different aspects of management services.
What is Managed Care?
Managed Care is a growing field of pharmacy that puts medication use into perspective. We, as the University of Houston College of Pharmacy Chapter, aim to expose more pharmacy students to this developing area so that patient outcomes can improve.

"Health care practitioners in managed care pharmacy design and implement drug benefits for the more than 200 million Americans covered by health insurance. Drug benefits ensure broad access to needed medications and include programs and incentives that improve patient health while keeping costs under control. Managed care pharmacy helps to ensure that those drug benefits are delivered in a safe and cost-effective manner and that patients receive the most appropriate medications."
