Menopausal hormone therapy has long carried a boxed warning (formerly a "black box warning") that may not accurately reflect the therapy's risk-benefit profile for all patients. This course discusses the FDA's recent removal of boxed warnings for select hormone therapy (HT) products, the rationale for this change, and how evolving guidance may impact patient care. You will explore strategies to support evidence-based counseling and individualized decision-making for patients considering HT.

In this episode, host Suzanne Feeney, PharmD, Senior Director, Pharmacy Solutions at McKesson Health Mart and guest Jaime Montuoro, PharmD, Director of Education & Practice Advancement at McKesson Health Mart, unpack two strategies you can deploy now: PGY1 community-based residencies and pharmacy credentialing. You’ll learn how residency trained pharmacists can elevate clinical care in workflow, fuel change and help launch billable services. Then, we get practical on credentialing—why becoming “provider ready” matters and how claiming your team’s Pharmacy Profiles credentials streamlines payer opportunities. Jaime shares real-world wins, including how Bryant Family Pharmacy partnered with a resident to implement prescriptive authority programs patients were willing to pay for. If you’re ready to move beyond the transaction and build sustainable, community anchored care, this playbook will help you start today.
