I am responsible for the implementation and management of specialty and retail pharmacies for Azina, a division of CPS.

I work collaboratively with the Azina accreditation team to help the specialty pharmacy obtain URAC and ACHC accreditation, as well as work with the Azina payer and trade teams to assist the pharmacy gaining access to limited distribution drugs and specialty payer networks.
