On this episode of IPA’s What, Why & How podcast, Kate Gainer welcomes Scott Pace, PharmD, JD, a pharmacy owner and partner at Impact Management Group (IMG), a government relations, public affairs, and consulting firm based in Little Rock, Arkansas. Kate and Scott discuss PBM reform, the role of the courts, PSAOs and more!
Scott Pace joined IMG after more than twelve years with the Arkansas Pharmacists Association (APA), where he served as CEO and COO. While at the APA, Pace successfully worked with the legislature to pass scope of practice legislation for pharmacists, legislation to amend the Arkansas Constitution to require a pharmacist consultant be a part of the Arkansas medical marijuana dispensaries, and he worked with Governor Asa Hutchinson and the legislature to pass legislation to license and regulate pharmacy benefits managers (PBMs) in Arkansas.
Scott was also instrumental in crafting and passing Arkansas Act 900 of 2015, the pharmacy legislation that was the subject of the landmark Rutledge v. PCMA case that was decided by the U.S. Supreme Court in December of 2020.
