Mitigating Risk and Protecting Business Growth Thru Regulatory Advocacy

In 2009, Boston-based, Injured Workers Pharmacy Inc., sought help from Armory Hill Advocates to immediately respond to various state government regulatory actions which threatened to adversely impact their business.

We moved quickly to build a government relations strategy to deliver immediate value thru monitoring regulatory activity in priority states, building relationships with key legislators and agency officials to educate them on this narrow aspect of the pharmacy industry. After working with Armory Hill Advocates for 18 months, IWP was positioned to recapture lost revenue due to previous state regulatory actions, strategically enter new markets, and continue to build their brand with lawmakers and regulators nationwide.
