While I admit to having no information for why these are closing, in-store clinics often face a daunting profitability challenge. Health care provider cost, session time, and traffic can mean always chasing a breakeven hurdle. Depending on local and state regulations, as these clinics approach their breakeven point they often have to add expensive health care workers. I believe that these clinics could be meaningful as patient drivers for hospitals and local primary care physicians (assuming there are any accepting new patients) ... neither of which necessarily benefit the retailer. However, they would have a much greater chance for success with a transformed retail layout focusing on "retail clarity" and a significantly reformatted pharmacy model. #Walgreens #cvs #riteaid #pharmacy #pharmacist https://lnkd.in/gibdfajg

While we support increased medicine access for all, our concern lies with rural and regional pharmacies. The average Aussie pharmacy dispenses 70% & retails 30%. However, many smaller community pharmacies in regions like Hay rely heavily on dispensing, making up 90% of their business. Changes to this model could jeopardize their survival. We urge the government to ensure no backward steps in medicine access for those already facing challenges. 🌏💊 #RuralHealth #MedicineAccess #SupportLocalPharmacies 👉 https://lnkd.in/gZBzVYvm
