Its not just about the generics…

Wherever you choose to buy your generics, you will make
a profit in the dispensary. It is not this area of your
purchasing that will hurt your margin if you get it wrong.
The most expensive outlay for you will be on branded
products – and with much lower standard discounts on
these lines – if there is not an MDS available you will be
making a loss. Making 10% loss on an item that costs
£100 can make a real difference to margin and outweigh
any benefits you are getting from your generics.
It is therefore really important that you regularly review
your branded prescribing to see if there are any other
options that can benefit the practice, and utilise the
tools on offer from your PSUK account manager such
as Boost tables and the new PAD guide. These tools can
give you valuable insight in to discounts and profit on
products in specific therapy areas and drive real benefits
to your bottom line.
With over 89 MDS schemes through PSUK and 36
enhanced or exclusive to PSUK members, you can be
confident that you can maximise any opportunity with
branded products through PSUK.

If you want to learn more about APM, Keys or our tools to support
your dispensary contact your Dispensing Doctor Account
Manager or call the team in the office on 01904 558 360.
