UNION group Professional
Pharmacists Australia has urged
employee pharmacists to respond
to the Review of Pharmacy
Remuneration and Regulation,
saying it’s “not convinced that the
existing arrangements in pharmacy
fully utilise pharmacists’ skills”.
PPA ceo Chris Walton said “in
many ways employee pharmacists
are the best kept secret in health
care...it is critical the review
develops a model of pharmacy that
benefits consumers and effectively
utilises and recognises the skills of
employee pharmacists”.
Walton said it was refreshing
that questions about pharmacy are
being asked, “so that we can have
an honest debate about the best
way forward”.
He was contrasting the current
review with previous reform
proposals which were thwarted
“as a few owners, making up a
small proportion of the pharmacy
profession, circle the wagons to
protect business interests”.The above article was sent to subscribers in Pharmacy Daily's issue from 03 Aug 16 To see the full newsletter, see the embedded issue below or CLICK HERE to download Pharmacy Daily from 03 Aug 16
