Adherence packaging is ideal for patients with complex medication regimens. But for pharmacies, filling and checking blister cards can be labor-intensive, repetitive, and difficult to scale. As production volumes rise and labor shortages persist, pharmacies need smarter workflow solutions that protect technician time and preserve pharmacist check capacity — without sacrificing accuracy.

Today’s pharmacies face mounting operational pressures—from staffing shortages and rising workloads to shrinking reimbursement rates and shifting compliance demands. To stay competitive and profitable, pharmacies must diversify with new services and revenue streams.

High volumes of unused medications in long-term care (LTC), assisted living, skilled nursing, correctional, and other institutional care settings account for significant annual disposal costs and inventory losses for dispensing pharmacies. Pharmacy automation solutions provider JFCRx™ is bringing to market a new way for pharmacies to reclaim packaged but unused medications: TruSort™, the only automated, image-verified pill sortation device available in North America.

As pharmacies struggle with erratic market conditions and significant regulatory changes, the impact of automated production is an opportunity to improve efficiency and profitability and significantly reduce operational costs.

Although cost-to-fill is key to pharmacy profitability, traditional adherence packaging technology has been less efficient than possible. Pharmacy automation solutions provider JFCRx announced today that its adherence packaging system TruPak™ can help pharmacies reduce adherence pouch packaging operational costs by as much as 75%, depending on specific use scenarios.

Canadian pharmacies serving the hospital, retail, and long-term care markets now have access to next-generation pharmacy automation technology to increase the reliability, efficiency, and safety of medication management.
