BOWL OF HYGEIA

Steven Hoyman, PharmD, Emmetsburg, IA

The 2024 Bowl of Hygeia recipient is known in his community as “a man of character and integrity.” Steven (Steve) Hoyman, PharmD, of Emmetsburg, IA, was presented this award at IPA’s 2024 Annual Meeting in Coralville, IA.

Steve Hoyman is the pharmacist and owner of Hughes Health Mart Pharmacy in Emmetsburg. A 1993 graduate of the University of Iowa College of Pharmacy, Hoyman has served the profession through a variety of roles with IPA, serving on various committees to advance pharmacy practice across the state.

Community involvement runs in the Hoyman family, following in the footsteps of his pharmacist father, Greg. A few of Hoyman’s many accomplishments include: serving as the co-founder and president of the Five Island Trail system, keeping the Riviera Theatre open to the public and operating a socially-distant vaccine clinic during the COVID-19 pandemic, serving on the city cemetery board, serving as treasurer of the Emmetsburg Education Foundation, co-founding and leading the Emmetsburg Bike Club as well as RAGBRAI Committee, serving as treasurer of the Little League, fundraising for the West Elementary playground and high school track, serving on the Finance Committee of the First United Methodist Church, among many others. As one nominator put it, “If it happens in Emmetsburg, Steve will be involved in some way.”

Luckily for the Emmetsburg community, “when he leads a project, you can be sure it will succeed.” Hoyman is supported and recognized for his efforts with over twenty nomination letters from community members, business leaders, and his family.

Grant Houselog, PharmD, CSPI, Sergeant Bluff, IA

Grant Houselog grew up in Dubuque, IA, and earned his bachelor’s degree in biochemistry from Loras College. Houselog graduated with his PharmD from the University of Iowa College of Pharmacy in 2016.

Since joining the Iowa Poison Control Center (IPCC) in 2016 as an Assistant Director and Certified Specialist in Poison Information (CSPI), Houselog has made significant strides in enhancing poison control services in his community and beyond.

Houselog takes an active role in his profession, serving as chair of America’s Poison Centers’ Government Affairs Committee. His leadership in this capacity reflects his commitment to advocating for policies that benefit public health and safety related to toxic exposure. Houselog is also active within IPA, serving on the Board of Trustees and IPA Committees, presenting to IPA members, and serving annually in the House of Delegates.

Although still early in his career, “Houselog embodies the qualities of an exemplary pharmacist and community leader.” His valuable contributions to the profession, IPA, and the Iowa Poison Control Center make him well deserving of this award.

APPRECIATION AWARD

Individual

A Drake University alumna, Sue Mears is a pharmacist compliance officer in the Department of Inspections, Appeals, and Licensing (DIAL). With over thirteen years of experience with the Iowa Board of Pharmacy, Mears has been an asset to the regulatory board and the profession, facilitating Board rulemaking, tracking legislative action, and providing education to IPA members. Mears served as a longstanding guest on IPA’s What, Why & How podcast, exploring WHAT regulatory changes occurred, WHY action was taken by the Board, and HOW these changes impact pharmacy practice.

Mears played a pivotal role in shaping Iowa’s new Pharmacy Practice Act through code revision and a full rewrite of Board of Pharmacy rules pursuant to Executive Order 10 and HF 555. Mears’ “commitment to clarity and precision” throughout the rulemaking process helped ensure the new Pharmacy Practice Act reflects the evolving needs of the profession and aligns with pharmacists’ full training and education for years to come.

As stated by one nominator, “Sue embodies the qualities of a visionary leader, dedicated professional, and tireless advocate for regulatory excellence.” IPA is grateful for her service.

PHARMACY TECHNICIAN OF THE YEAR

Molly Walter, CPhT, Coralville, IA

Molly Walter graduated from Iowa City West High School. She attended the University of Northern Iowa and earned a dual degree in Youth Theatre Education and Theatre Design. After a fun career working professionally around the country, Walter became a certified pharmacy technician in 2011.

As a pharmacy technician, Walter has worked in many roles within University of Iowa Health Care, both in the main hospital and Stead Family Children’s Hospital. Known for her leadership among the technician team, she helped facilitate the programing and hospital-wide rollout of new McKesson machines. In the words of one nominator, Walter “is an ideal team player.”

Walter currently works with the UIHC Specialty Pharmacy and Cardiology, Lipidology and Orthopedic Clinics. As a Specialty Pharmacy Revenue Cycle Representative, she provides support for prior authorizations and copay assistance, among other tasks. Walter acts as a continuous resource for her aging patients as they navigate the complexities of Medicare. “Without Molly’s expertise and dedication to patient care,” said one nominator, “many patients would simply not have access to the therapy they need.”

When not at work, Walter is active with two young kids involved in martial arts, music and theatre. She regularly volunteers for the Iowa City Animal Shelter and enjoys playing the concertina.

Madelynn Aeilts, 2026 PharmD Candidate

Utilizing Quality Improvement Organization Outreach & Community Pharmacies to Improve Nursing Home Vaccination Rates

Objectives: Residents of long-term care (LTC) facilities, including nursing homes, make up less than 1% of the U.S. population but account for 35% of all COVID-19 deaths. Quality Improvement Organizations (QIO) have been tasked by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) to engage nursing homes to improve vaccination rates. The objective of this project was to determine whether partnering with community pharmacies to provide vaccine services would address barriers identified during Telligen’s outreach to facilities, including vaccine access, staffing shortages and billing challenges.

Methods: Telligen contracted with the Community Pharmacy Enhanced Services Network (CPESN) to provide vaccine clinics to nursing homes in Colorado, Illinois, Iowa and Oklahoma. Clinics were offered to nursing homes with low up-to-date (UTD) rates for the COVID-19 vaccine and were promoted to departments of public health and nursing home associations. Pharmacies offered vaccines for influenza, COVID-19, pneumonia, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and other vaccines upon request.

Results: Between February 28, 2024 and May 23, 2024, 142 clinics were requested, which accounts for 9.5% of the facilities in the region, and 58 clinics have been completed. Based on preliminary results, partnering with CPESN pharmacies appears to

improve vaccination rates in nursing homes with low UTD COVID-19 vaccination rates, including rural areas and areas with high social vulnerability index (SVI), which is an indicator of potential health inequity. Of the clinics completed, 34% were in rural areas and 17% were in areas with a high SVI. The mean increase in COVID-19 rates based on CMS data for residents was 16.6%, with the largest improvement seen in areas of high SVI (28.1%). Based on calculated rates from pharmacy-reported data, the average increase in influenza, pneumococcal and COVID-19 vaccination rates at clinics where those vaccines were administered were 23%, 23% and 39%, respectively.

Conclusion: The results indicate a continued partnership between Telligen and CPESN could be a strategy to support maintaining UTD vaccine status in nursing homes. Results confirmed a pharmacy partnership can support nursing home barriers of vaccine access, billing challenges, and decrease staff burden caused by staffing shortages. Pharmacy-reported data demonstrated substantial impact on rates for the nursing homes where vaccines were administered, whereas the overall impact seen by CMS data was lower and may have been underrepresented due to a lag in data. The partnership also helped nursing homes in rural areas and areas with high SVI receive vaccination services.
