Waiting around for your accountant to tell you how profitable ordering is?
Then you're leaving money on the table every month.

Shortages, price changes, supplier pricing tiers. None of that waits around for a 6 monthly meeting.

Now John has regular chats with Richard, his business manager - he can "see the bigger picture" every single month.

Rich helps analyse what's going on in his profit report - and how he can tweak how e-CASS orders for him, saving money and time for his team.

Dispensary managers need more support.
Jo Shurety at Wickhambrook says "We don't stop. I don’t think people outside understand the work that goes in. Finding stock, training staff, all the legal adherence, SOPs that need rewriting."

But without time, training or a real framework, things can fall down.

What more can teams & the NHS do? We spoke to Jo, Kirstye & Max for the latest Dispex Gazette - read the article there or below.

"𝐈 𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐲𝐨𝐮'𝐝 𝐭𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐦𝐞 𝐲𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐝𝐚𝐲."
There's nothing worse than not having medicines exactly when you told patients you would.

John, owner of Focus Chemists, used to order on his old platform and "it told us we'd get it next day - but invariably we didn't."

"𝐈 𝐝𝐨𝐧'𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 '𝐨𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐠𝐮𝐲 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐥𝐞𝐭 𝐦𝐞 𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧'"

It doesn't happen anymore.

Now he uses e-CASS, and he can tell patients "We'll have it in stock tomorrow".

✅ It tells him if product is in stock with his mainline wholesaler, and if it is - he can tell the patient they can come back tomorrow to collect.

🏷️ And because he can see pricing too, he has all the facts to make informed, profitable orders.

What medicine is on the new Category H?
The last thing contractors need is more tariff homework🤦but Category H start on March 1st nonetheless.

Keep an eye out for prices when the drug tariff is announced (this should be on Feb 26th), when we will know if reimbursement will reduce for these lines.

And if you're a Cambrian Alliance member - chat to your Business Manager to look at the impact on your pharmacy.

Members like David Bache from Wilson's Pharmacy have saved £1000s in dead stock by using our new Excess Stock tool.

“𝑾𝒆'𝒓𝒆 𝒂 𝒔𝒎𝒂𝒍𝒍 𝒈𝒓𝒐𝒖𝒑, 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒊𝒕'𝒔 𝒆𝒇𝒇𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒍𝒚 𝒔𝒂𝒗𝒆𝒅 𝒖𝒔 𝒇𝒓𝒐𝒎 𝒘𝒂𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈 £16,000 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒕𝒉 𝒐𝒇 𝒔𝒕𝒐𝒄𝒌 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒘𝒐𝒖𝒍𝒅 𝒉𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒈𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝒐𝒇 𝒅𝒂𝒕𝒆."

It's simple.

Add stock to e-CASS Web, and the next time someone orders that item, e-CASS will take it from the Excess Stock, and you can send dispatch notes to make sure the stock is transferred – whether from another of your branches or within your own.

Members can get Excess Stock added to their e-CASS Web from today!
