Pharmacy Automation: Technologies and Global Markets

Summary

Introduction

Although Pharmacy Automation Dates Back To The 197s With The Introduction Of Pill Counting Machines, The Pharmacy Automation Market Is Anticipated To Make Generous Strides In Technology And Efficiency Through The Forecast Period Outlined In This Study. The Continually Increasing Demand For Accuracy, Safety, Industry Standards, And Competency In The Pharmacy Environment By Regulatory Authorities, Manufacturers, Healthcare Professionals, And Consumers Has Forced The Growth Of This Market.

New Opportunities In Various Settings Will Continue To Surface-From Small, Private, Family-Owned Pharmacies To Large Hospital And Mail-Order Service Facilities, Such As Medco Health Solutions, Inc. Many Small, Private Pharmacies Are Still Conducting Operations Through Manual And Semi-Manual Methods, Particularly In Regions Outside The United States. The Opportunity To Fully Automate These Pharmacies Surfaces More Often Each Year, And With A Growing Compliance With Bar Coding Standards, This Trend Will Continue To Increase At A Rapid Rate. A Large Portion Of Inpatient Facilities Are Already Highly Automated; However, There Are Advancements In Technology And Performance Improvements Every Year, And These Pharmacies Will Continue To Seek Out The Most Efficient System To Upgrade To. In Order To Remain Competitive In The Pharmaceutical Dispensing Business, Organizations Will Be Highly Dependent On Efficient Automation Systems. Therefore, Upgrades Are Likely To Be An Ongoing Process.

Methodology

The Information For This Bcc Report Was Obtained Through Primary And Secondary Data-Collection Methods. Primary Methods Included Interviews With Approximately 5 Key Executives, Product Managers, And Clinical Specialists Involved In The Pharmacy Automation Industry. Secondary Methods Included Published Literature In The Area Of Pharmacy Technology And Services, Investment Reports, Company Literature, And Various Pharmacy-Related Business Journals.

All Market Data Pertains The Global Market At The Manufacturers' Level. Data Is Expressed In Current U.S. Dollars. The Base Year Of The Report Is 27, With Historical Data Provided For 25 And 26, And Forecast Data Provided For 212. Historical Base Year And Forecast Data Are Provided For Each Market Segment Of The Report. Competitor Market Share Estimates Are Provided For Each Market Segment For The 27 Base Year.

Although This Study Provides Information On A Variety Of Pharmacy Automation Equipment, It Does Not Include A Comprehensive List Of Products Available. Many Companies Offer Products To A Variety Of Industry Types, Including But Not Limited To The Following Industries:

• Appliance Industry
• Aircraft Industry
• Automotive Industry
• Electrical And Electronics Industry
• Communications Industry
• Food Production Industry

Some Systems Not Covered In This Study Include Those That Are Primarily Used In Other Industry Types, But Are, However, Designed To Accommodate Other Settings, Including The Medical And Pharmacy Industries.
