What Senior Care Pharmacy Coalition does

The Senior Care Pharmacy Coalition (SCPC) is a Washington, D.C.-based nonprofit trade association founded in 2014 that serves as the sole nationwide advocacy organization for the long-term care (LTC) pharmacy sector. SCPC represents approximately 75% of America's LTC pharmacy community, an industry that delivers pharmacy and clinical services to more than 2 million seniors and medically complex patients in skilled nursing facilities, assisted living communities, and home- and community-based care settings—averaging about 850,000 patients per day. The organization's core function is policy advocacy, public affairs, and member services rather than technology development: SCPC connects its member pharmacies with Congressional representatives and federal administration officials, operates grassroots advocacy campaigns (via Voter Voice), engages RunSwitch PR for media relations, and publishes research and cost analyses in partnership with ATI Advisory and CLA (CliftonLarsonAllen LLP) to quantify sector impacts of Medicare drug pricing and PBM reform.

The coalition's underlying technology footprint is minimal—SCPC does not build proprietary products. Its digital presence consists of a content website (seniorcarepharmacies.org), email newsletters, and social channels (LinkedIn, X, Facebook) used to publish policy updates and member resources. It instead leverages a partnership ecosystem that includes five Platinum+ tier business partners (Cardinal Health, GeriMed, Innovatix, MHA, SPS Health) and a broader Platinum tier including Cencora, McKesson, BD, PointClickCare, RedSail Technologies, and pharmacy automation vendors, which deliver the operational technology used by member pharmacies.

SCPC operates on a recurring membership dues revenue model with a sales-led, field-based GTM motion directed at LTC pharmacy operators. The organization is actively campaigning against what it characterizes as existential threats to the LTC pharmacy sector: Medicare drug price negotiation under the Inflation Reduction Act (causing $15/prescription losses and 20-25% revenue declines), PBM anticompetitive contracting, and the absence of a federal statutory definition for LTC pharmacies. With 11-50 employees based at a single D.C. headquarters, SCPC is a small but politically focused entity whose value proposition is institutional advocacy, research publication (e.g., the CLA Long-Term Care Pharmacy Cost Analysis), and member engagement during a period of significant regulatory disruption in U.S. long-term care pharmacy.
