Guardian Pharmacy Services, Inc. announced on August 4 its acquisition of Managed Healthcare Pharmacy in Eugene, Oregon.
Established in 1991, Managed Healthcare Pharmacy is one of Oregon’s largest long-term care (LTC) pharmacies, serving LTC communities across both Oregon and Washington. The pharmacy serves residents in assisted living and behavioral health communities, as well as individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
Founded in 2004 and headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, Guardian is one of the nation’s largest LTC pharmacy companies. Guardian’s pharmacies provide client services and resident care to LTC communities, including assisted living and skilled nursing, group home, behavioral health and to organizations that serve individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. With a network of more than 50 pharmacies nationwide, Guardian provides service to more than 189,000 residents and approximately 7,000 LTC facilities across 38 states, as of March 31, 2025.
This transaction establishes Guardian’s first physical footprint in Oregon and expands its presence in the Pacific Northwest. All existing leadership and staff will remain in place, and the pharmacy will continue operating under its existing name. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
According to data in the LevinPro HC database, this transaction marks the 17th Specialty Pharmacy transaction of the year. In 2024, 28 Specialty Pharmacy acquisitions were reported.
Additionally, this marks Guardian’s third deal announcement of 2025. The company acquired Senior Care Pharmacy in May, followed by Mercury Pharmacy Services in June.
