Description of the enterprising work that went into this entry and its significance or impact on readers:

Pharmacy Technology Report (PTR) is a biannual supplement to Specialty Pharmacy Continuum that focuses on innovations in automation, informatics and other technological areas that can help pharmacists care for patients more effectively. This issue was packed with cutting-edge technology, such as drones that delivery specialty medications to patients’ homes, and disinfecting and medication delivery robots.

Beyond these exciting developments, the issue delves into technology-related challenges the field faces: How will new software-based therapies be covered by insurance? How should hospital pharmacists treat patients’ diabetes monitoring devices? How can pharmacies navigate evolving federal requirements for tracing drugs through the supply chain?

Finally, PTR offers a look back at a century of innovation in the preparation of sterile injectable medicines—a task that can result in dangerous and even fatal errors if not done correctly.
