Guardian Pharmacy Services, Inc. (NYSE: GRDN), one of the nation’s leading long-term care (LTC) pharmacy services companies, today announced its acquisition of Managed Healthcare Pharmacy, a leading LTC pharmacy in Oregon with locations in Eugene and Medford. This transaction marks a significant milestone for Guardian, establishing its first physical footprint in the state and expanding its presence in the Pacific Northwest. The newly acquired pharmacy serves residents in assisted living and behavioral health communities, as well as individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Established in 1991, Managed Healthcare Pharmacy is one of Oregon’s largest LTC pharmacies, with a strong track record of service in LTC communities across the state and into Washington. All existing leadership and staff will remain in place, and the pharmacy will continue operating under its existing name.

"We continue to grow in regions where senior living operators value more dependable, high-touch support from established LTC pharmacies," said Fred Burke, president and CEO of Guardian Pharmacy Services. "Managed Healthcare Pharmacy has built a strong reputation in Oregon and Washington for its clinical expertise and deep commitment to the communities it serves. This acquisition allows us to expand our presence in the Pacific Northwest with a team already known for exceptional care and trusted partnerships."

As with Guardian’s other acquisitions, Managed Healthcare Pharmacy will benefit from the company’s locally operated business model, supported by its centralized corporate team. This enables the local pharmacy to remain focused on exceptional customer service and the specialized needs of the communities and residents they serve, while Guardian assists with the many complex behind-the-scenes business functions, including data analytics, HR, IT, payor relations, national sales and more.
