Good Neighbor Pharmacy Announces Kick-Off Date for Virtual ThoughtSpot 2021 Conference & Trade Show
VALLEY FORGE, PA – Today, Good Neighbor Pharmacy announced that its annual conference and tradeshow, ThoughtSpot, will be
fully virtual and broadcast online starting July 27, 2021. The event will be
broadcast via AmerisourceBergen’s proprietary online event platform AB Live and provide a range in programming from on-demand continuing-education
(CE) classes to entertainment and musical performances. In acknowledgment of
independent community pharmacy’s fearless efforts throughout the COVID-19
pandemic, AmerisourceBergen will honor the ThoughtSpot 2021 Generics Rebate for
eligible customers who complete registration by March 31st and participate in
this year’s virtual event. Virtual ThoughtSpot will again be offered at no cost to
attendees as AmerisourceBergen makes accommodations to ensure safe
participation.
“With more than 90% of people
living within five miles of a community pharmacy, pharmacists have the unique
reach and ability to provide access to the COVID-19 vaccine and support broad
vaccination efforts, particularly for rural areas and under-resourced patient
populations,” said Rich Tremonte, EVP and President of Community and Specialty
Pharmacy at AmerisourceBergen. “Everyone at AmerisourceBergen is standing with
our pharmacies, and we know it is critical that such care continues without
interruption.”
As the United States and the
world continue to navigate the ongoing challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, not
only does the health and safety of customers, partners, and associates remain a
top priority, but is also critically important that the role of pharmacists as
an essential healthcare provider in their communities is taken into
consideration. As providers of critical care and as vaccine access continues to
broaden, it is of the utmost importance for pharmacists to be in their local
communities supporting their patients as the fight against COVID-19 continues.
“In the months ahead, we know
that communities across the country will be leaning on their local independent
community pharmacy as we continue to navigate this pandemic and the national
COVID-19 vaccination strategy unfolds,” said Brian Nightengale, President of Good Neighbor Pharmacy. “We will certainly miss the opportunity to engage face-to-face with our
customers, partners, and associates across the country in Las Vegas, but we’re
excited to make our programming virtual so our pharmacists can be where they’re
needed most.”
ThoughtSpot 2021 will feature dynamic
general sessions, keynote address, musical entertainment, a variety of
on-demand CE sessions and live webinars designed to equip pharmacists with the
tools and best practices to optimize their business operations, improve the
patient experience, and strengthen their bottom line.
Additionally, ThoughtSpot
attendees can look forward to Good
Neighbor Pharmacy’s annual
Pharmacy of the Year Award, which recognizes top pharmacies that display excellence
in patient care, community outreach, and innovative pharmacy practice.
