The paradigm change occurring in the practice of pharmacy has been a regular topic of this blog. But the Thriving Pharmacist is not the only one talking about the importance of pharmacists participating in a new care centered model. Randy Dotinga, with Drug Topics echoes many of the same themes in his recent article : Care delivery key to nex-gen pharmacy success.
Independent pharmacies are not the only ones looking to differentiate themselves to prepare for this new model. A recent article in Chain Drug Review: 2016 Retail Outlook: Pharmacy’s reach to expand, reports the thoughts of several leaders in a variety of chain drugstores on the same topic.
Change is coming. Be ready. Start now, and make every encounter count.
