The APCI Choice team had a fantastic afternoon at APCI headquarters on April 29 for Team Building Day! From claims management and audit support to clinical services, the group came together to collaborate, share ideas, and continue growing as a team. The energy in the room was all about learning from one another and finding new ways to better serve our members. Days like this remind us that what we do matters — and that we’re at our best when we do it together. And yes, good food and a few laughs were part of the agenda too!

Ultimately, patients would benefit the most from #PBMReform. ow.ly/cTkY50YSry9
