As I ended my day, I was catching up on social media posts and was drawn to some discussions about disruption in pharmacy—a common theme right now. It seems everyone believes they have a better business model, better technology, better convenience, and of course, they can do everything at a much better price than anyone else. They also make claims that you can access an online remote pharmacist to answer your medication related questions. It’s the same story, different companies.
love the article Randy! Totally in agreement - I feel like every new buzzy startup pharmacy is just mail order, but with a fancy app. I wrote up VERY similar thoughts about our professional role here: https://benjaminjolley.substack.com/p/pharmacists-partners-in-health
