Re: The Responsible Pharmacist: Consultation

This is what comes of the Govnmt thinking that the CCA represents pharmacists. The proposal may well free up time for pharmacists to become 'barefoot' Drs, but in the short term will just be exploited by the multiples to reduce costs.

USA supposed to have a shortfall of 7,000 pharmacists, wonder what their govnmt is doing.
