Walters Rx Strategy is led by Robert O. Walters Jr., PharmD, MBA, ACE — a senior healthcare executive with 15+ years of progressive leadership in hospital pharmacy, oncology services, and 340B program management.
Most recently Senior Director of Pharmacy Operations and Oncology Services for a New Jersey health system, where he led a $53M two-location Cancer Care Institute, a $60M annual 340B program, and 100+ pharmacy staff across two acute care hospitals, two cancer centers, an FQHC infusion site, and a satellite ED.
Robert is Apexus Advanced 340B Certified, ASHP Pharmacy Revenue Cycle Management certified, and CITI-certified for investigational research. He is a published peer-reviewed researcher (American Journal of Health-System Pharmacy, 2026) and the author of The Modern Pharmacist's Playbook.
His operational track record includes a 50% reduction in medication safety incidents, a 40% reduction in medication errors, $2.5M cumulative drug cost savings over four years, and operational turnaround of an FQHC infusion center from deficit to profitability.
Walters Rx Strategy combines that operational depth with practical, actionable advisory — built for clients who need outcomes, not slide decks.
Three principles that shape every engagement.
Our recommendations come from someone who has run the work, not just observed it. No vendor preference, no pre-packaged frameworks — just clear thinking grounded in operational reality.
Engagements are scoped to specific outcomes — savings recaptured, accreditation achieved, audit findings resolved, career transition completed. We measure success on what changed for the client.
You work directly with the principal. No layered teams, no junior consultants writing the deliverable. The person you talk to is the person doing the work.
Initial consultations are complimentary. Tell us what you're working on and we'll let you know if and how we can help.
