So the core funding contract for pharmacists has been announced and, unfortunately is exactly where it was widely rumoured to be. As highlighted by both the NPA and IPA there is still a huge gap in relation to historic funding levels. This confirms the position recently discussed by HubRx CEO Daniel Lee in a recent C&D article, that as business owners, this is not a time to wishfully hark back to the days of community pharmacies flourishing, through NHS dispensing and OTC sales alone, but to embrace technology, new ways of working and developing clinical services revenues.
With the Pharmacy Minister confirming that the final legislative steps for Model 1 Hub & Spoke will be taken in the coming weeks, now is the time to assess the options that this opens up for you and your business.
HubRx has built a cutting-edge automated dispensing facility for the benefit of independent pharmacies. Running successfully for over a year at our own pharmacies now, and delivering 99.6% of items successfully next-day, this service will be available later this year to independents of all sizes.
All with no capital expenditure, implementation overheads, staffing costs, or ongoing maintenance.
Our transparent sharing of at-scale margin improvements offsets the vast majority of the cost of using HubRx. See our benefits calculator or make an enquiry through our contact form for more info.
