"Primary Care Strategy Signals Government's Priorities For Pharmacy." Says The CCA, UK
Rob Darracott, CCA CEO states:
"This strategy reinforces Department of Health commitment to a customer (patient) focussed approach in primary care. It also clearly signals that Government wants to create a market in primary and community care to drive innovation and choice.
It provides an insight into the areas that the Department of Health see as especially important for community pharmacy as part of its overall strategy. These include a minor ailments scheme, vascular checks and provision of healthy living services and public health interventions.
It is good news that there is recognition of the need for pharmacy to have access to the care record, but these good intentions need to be translated into concrete action plans. It is crucial that we make significant progress on all these commitments in the next 12 months."
The Company Chemists' Association (CCA) provides a forum for its member companies to work together to create an environment where community pharmacy can flourish, and where contractors compete in a fair and equitable way. Our nine members - Boots, The Co-operative pharmacy, Lloydspharmacy, Tesco, J Sainsbury, Wm Morrison Supermarkets, Asda Wal-Mart, Rowlands Pharmacy and Superdrug operate over 6,000 pharmacies - more than 50% of all the pharmacies in the United Kingdom.
