Speaker. we devoted a great deal of attention to medicine and health in the 93d Congress. We passed the health revenue sharing bill. the health planning bill. and other such legislation. We were concerned about such problems as medical care for the poor. migrant health. the adequacy of medical education. and the distribution of doctors both nationally and regionally. One of the areas of the health field that perhaps receives less attention than most is pharmaceutical care and the pharmacist. The importance of this part of the health picture was brought home to me again recently when I read an article about the responsibility of the pharmacist by Glenn Spaulding. who is director of pharmacy relations for PAID Prescriptions. a nationwide. nonprofit drug service contractor.
