About Civica
Civica is a 501(c)(4) social welfare organization established in
2018 by health systems and philanthropies to reduce chronic generic
drug shortages and related high prices in the United States. Civica
is led by an experienced team of healthcare and pharmaceutical
industry leaders.
Today, more than 55 health systems have joined Civica. They
represent over 1,500 hospitals and one-third of all U.S. hospital
beds. Civica has also begun to supply the U.S. Department of
Veteran's Affairs, the U.S. Department of Defense and the U.S.
Strategic National Stockpile of essential medicines.
Civica recently announced plans to expand its mission, via a unit
called CivicaScript, to into the outpatient pharmacy space and to
manufacture and distribute insulins that, once approved, will be
available to people with diabetes at significantly lower prices
than insulins currently on the market. The availability of Civica's
affordable insulins, beginning in 2024, will benefit people with
diabetes who have been forced to choose between life sustaining
medicines and living expenses, particularly those uninsured or
underinsured who often pay the most out of pocket for their
medications.
Civica's mission is to ensure that quality generic medications are
accessible and affordable to everyone. Since established, the #1
Policy for the Civica team has been "Do What Is in the Best
Interest of Patients." Civica's manufacturing facility in
Petersburg, Virginia, is the future home of affordable insulin and
essential sterile injectable medicines. The facility is currently
in late-stage construction and hiring for the site is
well-underway.
