National Pharmacy Association Names MedPoint as Recommended Business Partner

After a rigorous assessment of the MedPoint technology and service offering, we’re delighted to announce that we’ve been chosen as a National Pharmacy Association (NPA) Recommended Business Partner.

Our mission is to support pharmacies everywhere to embrace the digital technology needed to adapt their businesses in the fast changing world of healthcare. This new partnership with the NPA will help us support even more independent pharmacies to futureproof their businesses.

MedPoint has helped many independent pharmacies to innovate and improve their business proposition and patient’s experiences already. We’re excited about partnering with the NPA to help even more pharmacies to thrive during what is a challenging time for many community pharmacies.

Kevin Murphy, MedPoint’s Co-Founder and Chief Clinical Officer said:

“Independent pharmacies provide essential services and act as a lifeline to many individuals and families in their local communities. MedPoint helps these pharmacies to improve their business proposition with better customer experience and increased profits. Being recognised as a recommended business partner shows the confidence that the NPA has in MedPoint’s technology to help independent pharmacies to operate their businesses successfully for years to come.”

Laura Sims, Head of Membership added:

“The NPA is actively seeking innovative ways for community pharmacies to embrace digital technology to remain competitive. We are supporting our members by recommending preferred suppliers such as MedPoint that offer some added value to our members, which helps eliminate some of the stress of vetting suppliers and agreeing favourable terms. We look forward to working with MedPoint to help our members futureproof their businesses.”

 

Offering a prescription ‘click and collect’ service through a solution such as MedPoint allows pharmacies to increase prescription volumes without increasing staff resource as well as increasing safety and efficiency.

Throughout 2020, we’re happy to have helped many local pharmacies across the UK to provide a new and improved prescription collection service that safely allows them to service increasing numbers of patients.

“2020 has been a watershed moment for 24/7 prescription collection entering the mainstream.The business case is so strong that we anticipate every pharmacy will be offering the some form of 24/7 collection facility within 2-3 years so we are delighted to be able to offer pharmacies a British-made solution that’s now recommended by the NPA”
