Maximising your pharmacy through technology
March 24, 2014
Many pharmacies will feel a
further squeeze in April when
the effects from PBS reforms will
become reality.
In light of recent changes,
pharmacies will need to develop
strategies to effectively counteract
these adjustments. There are
many untapped opportunities
that community pharmacies have
the potential to create by simply
identifying, establishing and
pursuing these goals. Identifying
opportunities can be crucial as it
can potentially provide pharmacies
with additional revenue streams.
Through technology, pharmacies
have the ability to gain a true
perceptive of means underutilised
in their pharmacy. Focusing on
maximising avenues such as
professional services strengthens
pharmacies offering and by
providing these beneficial services
to patients, not only can this
impact patient’s health but also
provide value to community
pharmacies.
Technology is merely an enabler;
it assists you in tasks that might
be tedious otherwise. Utilising
technology to its full potential
is something that we all need to
work on. Processes, KPI’s along
with establishing clear goals and
procedures can assist with the
implementation of technology in
pharmacy.

your pharmacy’s needs and talk to
