So, is it all bad?  Absolutely Not!!!
Think about this...

• Because of baby boomers reaching Medicare age, sales growth of home health care equipment and supplies is estimated estimated to be 20% yearly.  Diabetes supply sales, even higher 
• Pharmacy home health care category profitability will average over 50% if done correctly
• Diabetes can be a 35-50% category in pharmacies, even if providing the brand name strips and accepting assignment if done correctly (although most pharmacies average under 20%)
• Medicare is requiring accreditation for providers to continue to bill part Part B.  Half of the providers will drop out of Medicare Part B 

The market is growing very rapidly and the competition is going away...This has the potential of being a goldmine for pharmacies

It will be a seller's market for years to come 

• Millions of elderly diabetics will be looking for a new pharmacy when their's can no longer bill strips (and they will bring all their business to the store that can meet all their pharmacy needs)
• Referral sources will be scrambling for new sources of supply for their patients

It's my job to help you take advantage of this unprecedented opportunity.  I have been in the pharmacy based home health care business for over eighteen years.  I know it can be done be-cause I have done it and I have helped hundreds of other pharmacies to do it too.
