Emerging from a year-long crisis offers us a fresh stimulus to reflect on the pharmacy profession and the challenges that lie ahead. Industry observers have long noted the limited value of the dispensing function, and some have predicted that it will ultimately succumb to automation. Pharmacists have been jealous guardians of the professional role of pharmacists in overseeing the dispensing of prescription drugs, but the economics may eventually dictate that the process can safely be turned over to machines.
从长达一年的危机中走出来,为我们提供了一个新的契机,让我们重新审视药学专业以及未来所面临的挑战。行业观察人士早就注意到配药这一职能的价值有限,一些人甚至预测它最终将被自动化所取代。药剂师一直对监管处方药物配药的专业角色耿耿于怀,但从经济学角度来看,这个过程最终可能安全地交由机器来完成。
