Pharmacy Residency Program
The Managed Care Pharmacy Residency program at Healthfirst is the only ASHP accredited Managed Care program in the downstate NY area and is designed to provide the skill set needed for success. In the ever-changing managed care environment, the pharmacist plays a key role in providing access to cost-effective care that will improve patient outcomes. After completing the program, residents will have expanded their clinical experience and developed a diverse set of managed care skills through longitudinal, core, and elective learning experiences. These experiences include Pharmacy Benefit Manager Oversight (PBM), Population Health & Quality, Medication Therapy Management, academia, and more.
