You're absolutely right, CDTM.

Oh.

Wait.

You meant MTM, what we're supposed to be doing in the first place. Aaah, gotcha.

Do you not agree that the salaries of hospital pharmacist are as high as they are because of retail pharmacy? If it weren't for the retail expansion in the last few years you would have hospital pharmacists making 60k a year working in the dungeon basement of the hospital.

True.

Hospital leadership never wanted to pay pharmacists well. In addition, it is highly influenced by nursing. Retail pharmacy is the reason hospital pharmacists make good money. Most nurses don't care how long you went to school; they just want you to provide a secretarial service for MAR's and get the meds out faster. They see what you do and have a hard time believing you make more than them.

Many pharmacists have forgotten how hard nursing worked to prevent the growth of pharmacy. However, I have got to hand it to them for their NP achievement!

Nursing organizations did a great job expanding the scope of their practice with NP and CRNA positions.
