This study aimed to describe and compare the public's change in awareness and perceptions of, willingness to use, willingness to pay, and interest in insurance coverage for community pharmacist prescriptive authority services and point of care testing over a time span of 14 years.This was a retrospective review of anonymous questionnaires administered by student pharmacists in 2004 and in 2018. Questionnaires were administered to individuals who presented to University of New Mexico College of Pharmacy sponsored health fair screenings and at various community pharmacies throughout the state of New Mexico (NM).In total, 545 (2004) and 659 (2017-2018) participants completed the questionnaire. Awareness of community pharmacist clinical services increased from 2004 to 2018. In 2018, awareness of newer prescriptive authority services provided by pharmacists in NM was low relative to the services assessed in previous years. Most respondents indicated a willingness to use and pay for pharmacist-provided clinical services and felt that pharmacists should receive compensation by their insurance for these services. Trust in pharmacist advice grew from 2004 to 2018.Overall rates of awareness of community pharmacist clinical services were low with the exception of immunizations; however, most participants indicated interest in and willingness to use these services. Most participants believed pharmacists should receive reimbursement from insurance companies for clinical services and were also willing to pay a copay or out-of-pocket cost for these services. |
