Mission Statement

The Pharmacy & Therapeutics Society (PTS) seeks to foster interdisciplinary collaboration and information exchange in the P&T process. We support evidence-based formulary development and implementation across all practice settings as key elements in value-based design. We evaluate best practices in P&T organization, process and outcomes, and share what we learn with all interested parties.

2. Enhance the knowledge and expertise of our members through continuing education and training programs.
3. Serve as a focal point for policy statements on issues of concern for members and the public.
