PHARMACY Alliance will take advantage of MPS automated medication management systems in a new partnership aimed at cutting time spent on manual packing.
The agreement gives pharmacies access to the robotic packing services of MPS's three TGA-licensed dose manufacturing facilities in Australia, allowing them to avoid inefficient practices associated with dose administration aids (DAAs).
MPS ceo Luke Fitzgerald said the partnership was a great solution for Pharmacy Alliance and would help improve health outcomes.
"We are very excited to be partnering with Pharmacy Alliance to provide them with a proven and trusted solution to assist in managing their customers' complete medication requirements," Fitzgerald said.
Pharmacy Alliance ceo Darren Dye said: "We are thrilled to be able to provide our members with a time-saving medication management solution which will help them better serve their community and allow their patients to maintain their independence with personalised, convenient and compact medication packs."
The MPS partnership will be presented at Pharmacy Alliance member meetings nationally this month as an important initiative to combat PBS reform discounts.
