Pharmacy and the U.S. Health Care System, Second Edition, examines and gages the ramifications of each of these phenomena to clarify the issues at stake and ensure that better-informed and prepared students, academics, practicing pharmacists, and manufacturers emerge to lead the profession to a higher level of success. As you will see, without the active examination of societal changes and the setting of new professional goals, the profession faces stagnation. Pharmacists face formidable tasks such as filling more and more prescriptions with less time and manpower, increasing one-on-one contact with health care consumers, monitoring consumer consumption of over-the-counter drugs, and surviving the competition caused by mail order pharmacy and 'discriminatory'pricing. Pharmacy and the U.S. Health Care System provides you with in-depth coverage of these challenges and the strategies and techniques now being employed by leaders in the field to control health care utilization and cost.
