Saving Small Business One Pharmacy at a Time

February 17, 2017/0 Comments/in All, Pharmacy Growth Strategies/by pdsmarketing

Saving Small Business One Pharmacy at a Time

Approximately 20,000 independent pharmacies are operating in the U.S. today, and all are facing fierce competition ready to knock them out of the game. The resources and budgets of independents can’t compare to those of a multi-million dollar retail pharmacy, so independents have to get ‘creative’ by harnessing the talents and providing professional development, for everyone on their team.

A new wave of indie pharmacy owners are working to dispel the notion that they are a dated and dying breed of healthcare providers. Here are a few reasons why your local store is the place to visit for your healthcare needs.

  • Indie Pioneer: Hashim Zaibak, owner of Hayat Pharmacy, saw the opportunity to save their patients money by providing a low-cost epinephrine pen alternative. This safe and comparable option to an expensive life-saving medication helped uninsured patients when retail giants could not.
  • Indie Pioneer: Patient Synchronization (SyncRx) isn’t a new program to the pharmacy industry, but Jason Turner of Moundsville Pharmacy recognized how valuable it could be to patients with complex medication regimens. He developed a Medication Therapy Management (MTM) component which allowed his team to provide OTC solutions for patients suffering medication side effects. Jason changed the game by providing personalized patient solutions.

Your community pharmacy is your local health care destination. No one has the knowledge and latitute to address community health care needs like your local pharmacy. Many have community-centered programs that are beneficial to anyone such as wellness clinics, immunization programs, and disease testing and education.

The end all, be all goal of independent pharmacies is successful patient outcomes.
