Frequently Asked Questions

This resource tool helps pharmacy teams visualize and quantify potential sales and profit growth through two key strategies:

  • Basket Size Growth: Understanding the financial impact of increasing the average transaction value.
  • Script Solutions Growth: Calculating potential revenue from attaching OTC products to prescription transactions.

Script Solutions (or Script Solution Conversion) refers to the practice of offering relevant OTC products alongside prescriptions to better serve patient health needs.

Script Only Sales (AKA Naked Scripts) are defined as transactions where one or more prescription products have sold without a retail product.

To calculate the SOS percentage in your store, use the formula:

Script Only / (Script Only + Scripts & Retail)

  • Transactions containing retail-only products are not used in the formula.
  • A transaction containing multiple scripts only counts once, as it represents a single opportunity to upsell.

Effective implementation requires "buy-in" from the whole team. Organise a team meeting to discuss:

  • Purpose: What does a script solution mean for the patient and the business?
  • Process: How will your team implement the workflow?
  • Questions: What specific questions will you ask the patient?
  • Responsibility: Who is responsible for each step of the process?

Dispensary Tips:

  • Pay attention to verbal and non-verbal cues for customer comfort.
  • Swap medical jargon for simple, accessible words.
  • Use visual learning by showing the patient the product(s) you are recommending.
