‘Leading change’ at Cardinal Health RBC 2014

WASHINGTON, D.C. — “Leading change.” That was theme for this year’s Cardinal Health Retail Business Conference, held here last month at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center, from July 23 to 26. And no doubt, given the rapidly changing healthcare landscape and the increased role that pharmacists are playing in the U.S. healthcare system, that theme resonated again and again throughout the course of the event.



“‘Leading change,’ is all about your vital role in moving healthcare forward,” Steve Lawrence, SVP independent sales for Cardinal Health, told attendees of the opening business session.



More than 8,000 independent pharmacists attended RBC 2014, which kicked off July 23 with a special daylong “Health on the National Mall” event, co-sponsored by Cardinal Health and the National Community Pharmacists Association, in which volunteer pharmacists shared insights with local patients on how to better manage common health issues and chronic conditions, ranging from asthma and diabetes to heart health and weight management.
