R.J. Hedges & Associates is pleased to announce a new strategic partnership with Atrium24, bringing together two organizations dedicated to helping independent pharmacies strengthen their operations, expand revenue opportunities, and confidently navigate an increasingly complex healthcare landscape.
Independent pharmacies continue to face mounting challenges from shrinking reimbursement and increased competition to evolving regulatory requirements and operational demands. This partnership combines the strengths of both organizations to provide pharmacy owners with practical tools, trusted expertise, and meaningful business resources designed to support long-term success.
Atrium24 is a SaaS and Group Purchasing Organization (GPO) helping community pharmacies grow revenue through sales enablement, data-driven prescriber outreach, and exclusive product access. Its flagship platform, Dotti AI, is pharmacy's first CRM built specifically for community pharmacy owners, helping pharmacies strengthen prescriber relationships, identify growth opportunities, and better manage business development activities.
For more than two decades, R.J. Hedges & Associates has partnered with independent pharmacies and healthcare providers nationwide to simplify compliance and regulatory requirements. Through customized compliance programs, Medicare enrollment services, consulting, accreditation support, and ongoing regulatory guidance, helping clients stay compliant while allowing them to focus on patient care.
Together, the partnership provides pharmacy owners with access to both operational growth resources and trusted compliance expertise through one collaborative relationship.
"Community pharmacies are being asked to do more with less - grow revenue, protect their license, and keep up with constantly shifting compliance requirements, all at the same time," said Nicolette Mathey, PharmD, Founder and CEO of Atrium24 and Dotti AI. "Partnering with R.J. Hedges & Associates means our members get proven compliance expertise built directly into the same platform where they're already managing prescriber relationships and growth strategy. For pharmacies already working with RJH, this partnership is also a first look at what the rest of the Dotti ecosystem can do for their business."
"We've always believed compliance should support business growth, not stand in its way," said Becky Templeton, Director of Operations at R.J. Hedges & Associates. "Partnering with Atrium24 allows us to connect our compliance expertise with innovative business development tools that help independent pharmacies operate more efficiently, strengthen prescriber relationships, and position themselves for long-term success. Together, we're providing pharmacy owners with practical solutions that address both today's regulatory demands and tomorrow's growth opportunities."
