At what point does a BD Rowa™ pharmacy robot pay for itself?
A robot may well have paid for itself after just 1.5 years if the staff utilize the time saved to make additional sales. The additional income can allow to refinance the robots.
What can I input into BD Rowa™ pharmacy robots?
As a rule, our customers can input virtually everything. To this end, we offer corresponding solutions such as outer packaging and, for example, homeopathy carriers. Other customers prefer to input prescription-only products. Naturally, that is also possible.
What support does a storage system offer for the processing of e-prescriptions?
It simplifies workflows in the pharmacy considerably. The prescription is registered by the ERP system when scanned and forwarded directly to the storage system. The medication is output directly to the sales counter. That means the pharmacy team does not need to print the prescription, have a tablet handy, or make a note of the prescription to be able to collect it from the drawers. The patented collection management system reserves the medication in the storage system if it has been ordered in advance. The advantage: up-to-date inventory at all times and no additional working steps.
