The new coalition agreement: Why pharmaceutical training is now more important than ever

In their new coalition agreement set clear signals: On-site pharmacies will be strengthened, the pharmacist profession will be upgraded and new areas of responsibility such as prevention and medication management will be even more firmly anchored in everyday pharmacy life in future. Those who continue their training now are setting the course for a successful and future-proof pharmacy.

The coalition agreement as a turning point for pharmacies

The coalition agreement explicitly strengthens the role of public pharmacies. The following points in particular have a direct impact on daily practice and underline the need for continuous further training:

1. Strengthening the local pharmacy - especially in rural areas

Politicians are clearly committed to Ban on third-party ownership and wants to Strengthen rural pharmacies financiallyfor example, with a variable fixed fee of up to 11 euros per pack. Those who can offer innovative services in the future will gain a real locational advantage.

2. Expansion of prevention services

The coalition agreement stipulates that pharmacies will have more Prevention services can offer. This opens up new fields of action - from vaccination and advice campaigns to structured health promotion measures. Specialist knowledge in this area becomes a clear competitive advantage.

3. Less bureaucracy, more time for advice

Bureaucracy reduction, the elimination of Zero returns for formal reasons and simplified drug exchange give pharmacies more scope for what really counts: High-quality pharmaceutical advice. Those who sharpen their advisory skills now will make the most of this opportunity.

4. Pharmacists as a medical profession - with all the consequences

The coalition agreement states verbatim: "We are developing the pharmacist profession into a medical profession". Even though we have always counted ourselves among the health professions - our profession of pharmacist is now to be officially developed into a health profession. Healthcare profession be further developed. This means not only more recognition, but also more responsibility - for example in interprofessional collaboration with other healthcare professions. Further training thus becomes an indispensable basis.

5. New remuneration models for pharmaceutical services

In future, the remuneration of pharmaceutical services will be negotiated between the profession and the National Association of Statutory Health Insurance Funds - a clear signal for more personal responsibility. Anyone who wants to offer the new services in a qualified manner should rely on sound, quality-assured further training.
