#219: Dale Wollschleger (ExactCare) — From Pharmacist to Building a Billion-Dollar Pharmacy Care Company

Dale Wollschleger is the Founder and former CEO of Cleveland-based ExactCare Pharmacy and the developer of the ExactPack™—a patient-specific medication packaging system designed to simplify complex medication regimens.This conversation with Dale dives into the unlikely journey of a pharmacist-turned-entrepreneur who started in the back of a small Cleveland pharmacy and built a billion-dollar organization serving patients across the country.ExactCare's meteoric growth—from inception to a multi-hundred-million-dollar business in under a decade—has earned it repeated recognition as an Inc. 5000 fastest-growing company and a Top Workplace by The Plain Dealer. Dale himself was named an Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year.Ultimately, Dale's remarkable journey stems from an observation he made as a pharmacist: that pharmacists have the opportunity to play a more integral role in clinical care—and that their responsibility doesn't end when the patient leaves the store. Many patients could live healthier, more independent lives if only they took the right medications at the right times.In our conversation, Dale shares how he navigated the many chapters of scaling a healthcare business: bringing in private equity and outside capital, evolving his leadership, and balancing high-growth expectations with a deep commitment to patient outcomes, company culture, family—and much more.00:00 - The Journey of a Pharmacist Turned Entrepreneur14:34 - Building ExactCare: Addressing Complex Patient Needs24:18 - The Evolution and Vision of ExactCare31:07 - Entrepreneurial Spirit in Pharmacy38:59 - Understanding the Pharmacy Industry43:24 - Pride in Building in Cleveland-----For more on The O.H.I.O.

There's calls for law changes among experts after a 2-month-old baby died after she was allegedly given medication at an adult dosage by a pharmacy. This incident has prompted the Ministry of Health and Health New Zealand to 'urgently' undertake a joint review into the incident. Lanny Wong, director of Mangawhai Pharmacy and a member of the national executive of the Pharmaceutical Society says something's clearly gone wrong - and an investigation is needed. "It does seem out of place, I don't think any pharmacist would disagree with your sentiment. Obviously, something went wrong here and we need to understand what that is."

In this episode of the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) Podcast, host Marilyn N. Bulloch, PharmD, BCPS, FCCM, speaks with Christy C. Forehand, PharmD, BCCCP, FCCM, about retaining highly skilled pharmacists in the ICU setting. Dr. Forehand, a clinical pharmacy specialist and residency program director at Augusta University Medical Center and the University of Georgia College of Pharmacy, shares evidence-based insights and personal reflections on how pharmacist retention directly impacts quality and safety in patient care. The conversation highlights growing concerns around burnout and attrition among ICU pharmacists, underscoring how their involvement improves clinical and economic outcomes—ranging from medication safety and reduced ventilator days to optimized transitions of care. Drawing on American College of Clinical Pharmacy (ACCP) publications and American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP) guidance, Dr. Forehand outlines strategies for building retention plans that prioritize recognition, advancement opportunities, career mentorship, and structural supports such as protected administrative time. She emphasizes how institutional practices such as improved scheduling, remote work models, and role-specific stipends can prevent burnout while reinforcing team trust and efficiency.

About three years after being signed into law, one provision of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) that is of particular importance to 340B hospitals is about to take effect: Medicare price caps. Jan. 1, 2026, marks the date that the first 10 Medicare drugs will be subject to a maximum fair price (MFP). Meetali Desai, director of pharmacy business services at UMass Memorial Medical Center, joins us to explain how this will affect 340B hospitals and health centers such as hers.The Good and Bad News for Covered EntitiesThe good news, Desai says, is that there is potential for the 340B ceiling prices to go down for certain medications. This is because the MFP will become the new “best” price in the formula for calculating 340B prices. However, because the law will cap reimbursement rates to MFP when Medicare patients receive those drugs, 340B hospitals will see their 340B savings amounts go down for those dispenses.Updated Calculator Can Help Hospitals Gauge Potential Impact340B Health recently updated its calculator for hospitals to use to estimate the effects of MFP pricing based on the newest data. This new calculator allows users to project what the potential impact from the IRA could be on a hospital, including if drugmakers decide to lower their list prices significantly to avoid IRA inflation penalties. This drop in prices of Medicare drugs could result in 340B hospitals seeing higher ceiling prices and reduced savings.Reduced Savings Could Impact Patient CareDesai says Medicare price caps, combined with other financial pressures on hospitals, could mean some rough times ahead for hospitals that care for a large proportion of low-income patients. She encourages 340B teams to share their results from the IRA calculator with their senior leadership and with 340B Health as the hospital community prepares for the impact of these caps.ResourcesUse Our IRA Calculator and Share How Your 340B Savings Will ChangeRead Our Analysis: Second Federal Court Affirms HRSA's Authority Over 340B Rebates

Is the war on PBMs really about helping patients - or just another power grab dressed up as reform? In this eye-opening episode of The Brian Nichols Show, we rip the mask off the growing crusade against pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs). Critics claim PBMs are behind rising drug costs, but is that the full story - or just the version Big Pharma wants you to believe? If you've ever looked at your pharmacy receipt and wondered why your medication costs more than your electric bill, you won't want to miss this deep dive. We have a new show on Lions of Liberty!

And remember, they're all Blood Suckers! Studio Sponsor: ⁠Cardio Miracle⁠ - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": ⁠CardioMiracle.com/TBNS⁠ Brian welcomes economist and researcher Satya Marar from the Mercatus Center to break down how PBMs actually work, why they're being blamed for high drug prices, and what the real drivers of healthcare inflation are. Together, they dismantle the most common talking points against PBMs, including rebate manipulation, lack of transparency, spread pricing, and claims of collusion with insurers. It's a masterclass in separating economic fact from political fiction. We also unpack the emotional tug-of-war between small-town pharmacies and corporate chains. What happens when “Fred's Pharmacy” can't compete with CVS and Walgreens? Is it worth paying more for drugs to keep the local guy afloat - or are there smarter ways to balance access, cost, and community values without wrecking the system? But here's the kicker: what if the real culprit isn't the PBMs at all, but a broken government pricing system and global freeloading by other countries? Yeah, we go there. From Medicare's price models to how the U.S. subsidizes R&D for the world, we expose what's actually driving your pill prices through the roof. If you're sick of the soundbites and want real answers about the mess that is American drug pricing - this episode delivers. Tune in, take notes, and walk away with a smarter, sharper view of healthcare economics than most politicians will ever have.
