SpanishImprove service efficiency and customer satisfaction
Most people go to a pharmacy after a visit to the clinic. Queues at retail pharmacies are ubiquitous and cause long waiting times and queues at the
store that raise frustration. Nonetheless, waiting to be served at the pharmacy is an inescapable part of our lives.
Long waiting times lead to low service quality and directly affect a pharmacy’s operational efficiency. Wavetec’s customer flow management systems
have the flexibility and capability to transform service experiences and increase operational efficiency of a pharmacy by streamlining patient flow
from an initial entry point to check out.
