they have to know all the government and insurance regulations (which are massive and becoming a huge problem keeping up with government demands)and have patient consultations.

Has your wife ever considered nuclear pharmacy? That is becoming a huge demand in our area because of patient testing (like bone scans) and chemo.

Nuclear Pharmacy - salary around $95,000 (mostly done at hospitals)

Nuclear pharmacy is a specialty area of pharmacy practice dedicated to the compounding and dispensing of radioactive materials for use in nuclear imaging and nuclear medical procedures. These procedures use small amounts of radioactive material for the safe diagnosis, treatment and monitoring of disease. Diagnostic nuclear imaging is used principally for bone, brain, kidney, liver, gall bladder, heart, lung and infection assessment.

Once she get's into pharmacy school, I'm sure she will be exposed to that field. It all depends upon what peaks her interest. Right now, we are just concentrating on getting her accepted. I say 'we' because I help her with the chemistry portion becasue I am a research chemist. I saw the PCAT section on chemistry and it looks like they are testing general knowledge and not difficult calculations.
