Independent Pharmacy Alliance, est. 1988, is a trade group and retail pharmacy buying cooperative representing over 3,700 independent pharmacies in New Jersey, New York, Connecticut and Pennsylvania. IPA represents its members for the purpose of combined purchasing to lower a pharmacy’s “cost of goods and services” as well as to provide them with comprehensive legislative advocacy, third party resolution support and free continuing education. In IPA’s commitment to represent each member, customer service is an integral part of the services we provide. Members know that they can call IPA during office hours and get a real person, not voice mail, and immediate action on any issue.
