Cash & Carry Dispensing
Dispensing medications in-office provides benefits to your patients in four primary categories: Convenience, Cost, Compliance and Confidentiality.
- Convenience: Save a trip to the pharmacy. Pharmacy wait times can be hours. Patients value the time savings of filling prescriptions at their doctor’s office.
Cost: Regardless of the service you choose – Cash, Insurance Adjudication, or Workers’ Comp – dispensing with PharmaLink saves money for patients.
Compliance: According to several studies, patients fail to fill between 20% and 30% of prescriptions.
- Confidentiality: Our clients report a high utilization of their in-office dispensing option especially when the condition being treated might be sensitive to the patient. Patients appreciate the option to fill prescriptions in the privacy of their doctor’s office.
If you’d like to read more, the National Center for Biotechnology Information (part of the NIH) has a good article titled Good Intentions, Uncertain Outcomes: Physician Dispensing in Offices and Clinics that discusses many of these arguments.
