At Prime Therapeutics/Magellan Rx Management (Prime/Magellan Rx), we strive to provide the same care we would want for our loved ones. This purpose extends beyond employees to encompass our members, clients and communities.

In this special Power of People edition of the Pharmacy Friends podcast, Laura Spitzack, director of communications at Prime/Magellan Rx, discusses how our employees’ help goes beyond our work in health care. On any given day, Prime/Magellan Rx’s people can be found serving others in the communities where we live and work.

Featured in this episode is Kerry Florian, vice president, total rewards, who discusses how Prime/Magellan Rx’s community giving program, PrimeCares, brings employees together to donate, volunteer and participate in community events. She also talks about working with our communities to address inequality and injustice in all its manifestations, particularly racism, poverty, health and hunger through the Prime Together Foundation.

Also featured is guest Becky DeRosia, senior development officer, Hennepin Healthcare Foundation, who talks about their great purpose of healing and enriching life in our community and how organizations like the Prime Together Foundation are in instrumental in their work.

“Introducing these new populations to careers in healthcare, not just being a doctor, is important,” DeRosia said. “There’s so many phenomenal careers in nursing, medical aid, administration, etc. It’s really about opening their eyes.”
