Mounting Pressure on Healthcare Providers to Reduce Errors in Prescription Medication Drives Market

With the introduction of the latest technologies, automation is available for functions such as compound preparation, tablet counting, medication packaging, prescription management, inventory management, and dispensing. It is possible to realize the complete benefits of each of the aforementioned systems after the relevant technologies are assimilated cohesively. The global market for pharmacy automation is anticipated to expand in response to the growing prevalence of chronic ailments requiring high and complicated doses of medicines and the mounting pressure to prevent the incidence of medication errors.

The demand from the market is also augmented by the escalating healthcare expenditure, rising drug prices, and reducing medical reimbursement facilities. These factors escalate the pressure on healthcare providers to reduce their pharmacy costs. Furthermore, implementation of stringent government regulations pertaining to drug compounding, labeling, and packaging also fuels demand from the global pharmacy automation systems market.

Rising Cost of Deploying Novel Technologies Hampers Market

On the flip side, the rising cost of the implementation of these novel technologies is a major challenge faced by pharmacies, which adversely impacts the market. Nevertheless, vendors operating in the pharmacy automation systems market may capitalize on the available market opportunities by developing cost-effective technologies for mid- and small-sized hospitals.
