With the operations of a pharmacy being a required element of PharmD courses, this textbook will provide pharmacy students with an understanding of business processes used and how those processes impact their practice of pharmacy in providing patient care. The material will provide those who aspire to become managers in healthcare organizations with a foundation of how to manage in an environment that is focused on "the business of healthcare." Special features include cases that allow students to apply what they have learned in the chapters to business situations with the context of various practice settings.
"This introductory level book provides a foundation for pharmacy management...Pharmacy is more than clinical management of patients, it is a business, and this book details the basic aspects of running a pharmacy operation...Topics such as pricing, pharmacy layout, risk management, and personnel management are covered. Charts and case studies help illustrate the topics." Barbara L. Giacomelli, PharmD, MBA, Doody's Notes, May 2013. -- Barbara L. Giacomelli * Doody's Notes *
"...it did highlight several areas that I hadn't first thought about, such as appraising readiness to become an entrepreneur...this book seems to cover most bases, as well as including self-test questions at the end of each chapter with answers at the end of the book, and cases to look through. Overall, if you are considering owning your own pharmacy, or managing one, in the future, then this book is a good starting point."
