Your chronic disease patient bought their refill at the pharmacy near their office this month — because you did not remind them
How a loyal patient quietly drifts away
A patient on three chronic medications — antidiabetic, antihypertensive, and statin — refills their prescriptions every month. Most months they come to your pharmacy because you are convenient, your staff know their name, and their doctor is nearby.
Then they travel for work and their prescription runs out while they are away from their usual pharmacy. They buy at whatever medical store is closest. The next month, their workplace has changed and the new convenience pharmacy is not yours. A significant proportion of chronic patient revenue is lost this way. It is not deliberate switching. It is the passive attrition that happens when no one actively maintains the relationship.
