Interesting. I guess that sort of qualifies, even though a pharmacy owner can technically choose to not enter into any agreements.

The government is at the root cause of wanting to squeeze all players in the healthcare business, since public rancor reached a tipping point in the late 2000s and ACA was passed. Pharmacists just got shafted first because they were the easiest to squeeze due to supply and demand. Doctors were next with the insertion of physician assistances and nurse practitioners.
