Every CPESN CH affiliated pharmacy has social determinants of health expertise, while training at least one Community Health Worker - expanding roles of technicians, support staff, and delivery drivers to help patients with high social risk navigate healthcare and community resources. 

With nearly 400 affiliated pharmacies in over 30 states, CPESN Community Health is the largest network of pharmacies committed to providing pharmacy care with a special emphasis on underserved and marginalized patients.

Increasingly, Medicare, Managed MCOs, and state Medicaid programs are recognizing these services in value-based payment models. CPESN Health Equity helps CPESN pharmacies and local networks navigate conversations with health departments, state Medicaid agencies, value-based payers and others, around best-practice services to address health inequities.
