Pharma Pulse 10/7/24: Pharmacy Desert Prevalence, How AI is Changing Healthcare & more

KOL Collaboration Series: Pharmacy Desert Prevalence

In a video interview with Pharma Commerce, John Stefankiewicz, VP of Analytics, Cencora, explained that pharmacy deserts are increasingly prevalent due to the ongoing closure of pharmacies, which affects community access to essential healthcare services. In urban areas, the nearest pharmacy may be difficult to reach due to barriers like highways and inadequate public transport. In rural regions, residents may need to travel significant distances, sometimes 20 miles, only to find pharmacies closed after work hours. Pharmacies serve as critical points of care, especially during peak seasons for illnesses like flu, emphasizing the necessity of local access to pharmacists for timely prescription filling and healthcare support.
