I'm no expert on the subject, but in my opinion, all members of the health care system are probably underutilized. As a doctor, I can tell you that when one of my patients starts feeling unwell, it's almost always the pharmacist who calls me, rather than the patient coming to see me first.
Does that mean every private chain can start increasing the number of prescriptions? No. We saw problems when there were too many prescriptions. Problems should be properly resolved through monitoring and evaluation. We must be creative. There's no doubt about that.
