In case you are not aware, the Florida legislature began an early session this year - to address the issue of redistricting.  But they are also discussing other aspects of state government, and, of course, our concern is pharmacy related issues.  The Florida legislature directly controls Florida Medicaid, which over the years has become one of the main payers of pharmacy services in the state.  They also control our profession - like it or not.  (Your employment is controlled by your employer, but your profession is controlled by state, and federal, government.)  This year there are some "important" bills related to pharmacy practice being discussed and debated in Tallahassee.  These can be good, or bad, depending on your point of view.  But the last thing you want is more restrictions on your practice/profession, and smaller payments for the services you/your pharmacy provides.  (Believe it or not, the source of your salaries is not an bottomless well.)  And the absolutely worse thing you could do for yourself and your profession is _____.  What does that mean???  

We now have a list of past President's of ECPA that was passed on to me.  It is now in digital format so that it now will not become "lost".  I would very much like some of those who have been around for a while to go over this list and please notify me of any inaccuracies, and any additional information we can put with this list.  I would even like to gather a list of those who have served in any capacity as an officer of ECPA in the past.  If you have served or know someone who has served, please send us the information.  Thank you!
