The Argus Commission examined the history and current status of progressive pharmacy patient care services across several federal branches of government, including the Veterans Administration, Department of Defense, and the U.S. Public Health Service where officers and civilian pharmacists practice in the Indian Health Service, Bureau of Prisons, Area Health Education Centers and other locations. The engagement of pharmacy faculty, students and residents in these practices was assessed. Colleges and schools of pharmacy advocate for the expansion of the capacity for placement of learners in these progressive practices. AACP is encouraged to establish on going collaborations with federal pharmacy leaders to create new opportunities for partnerships that advance patient care, especially for special populations served in these federal programs.
