There’s strength in numbers—and we’ll get you some numbers you’ll love.

IHPN members are pharmacists who are committed to both service and profitability. They are also entrepreneurs who face business challenges that would bring large corporations to their knees and prosper by creating innovative solutions that improve patient care and lower costs. But, let's face it, understanding the cost of goods in long-term care (LTC) and closed-door pharmacies is complex and time consuming. When you negotiate your prime vendor agreement, you are the little guy at a big table.

IHPN levels the playing field for independents.

We’re a national network of independently owned pharmacies with a deep knowledge of wholesaler contracting, management, and negotiations. By putting our experience and size to work, our members get a lower cost of goods, higher discounts, substantial generic rebates, and competitive generic pricing—but we don’t stop there. We monitor and manage your wholesaler pricing on an ongoing basis to ensure contract compliance. It’s like having an extension of your purchasing department, marketing department, and business development department without incurring the costs.
