Now accepting applications for this NEW program! 

Pfizer, Inc., Oncology Organized Customer Field Medical Team, in partnership with the Academy of Managed Care Pharmacy Foundation, will support the new AMCP Foundation/Pfizer, Inc. Oncology Internship Program. Its goal is to develop future leaders in managed health care through activities that expose interns to population health and the application of managed care pharmacy principles in formulary management, benefit design, medication therapy management and adherence management with a focus on oncology.  

Working directly with pharmacists and other members of the health care team in oncology, specialty pharmacy, or related business units, interns will gain an appreciation of how managed care pharmacy principles maximize health care resources and patient care outcomes. Two student pharmacists will be selected for the internship through a nationwide selection process. 


Internship Details 

During the 10-week program each intern will be assigned to a health plan, pharmacy benefit management company, specialty pharmacy, or other sites. In addition, interns will be matched with virtual preceptors and present capstone research projects at AMCP Nexus 2020. This immersive experience will round out their introduction to the managed care pharmacy profession and transform their career plan.

  • Interns may also spend time at Pfizer headquarters in New York. 
  • The program will cover housing, travel and other approved expenses. Interns will also receive a modest stipend.
