Pharmacy Technology CareersPharmacy technicians work under the supervision of licensed pharmacists and assume many of the vital technical and administrative responsibilities related to drug dispensing. There's plenty to do as a pharmacy technician such as:

  • Measuring and counting medications
  • Getting physician authorizations
  • Calling insurance carriers
  • Tracking inventory
  • Updating account information
  • Printing prescription labels
  • Preparing third-party billing statements
  • Ordering OTC medications

In the more than 50,000 pharmacies across America, more than three-billion prescriptions are filled annually. Our expanding elderly population, along with the ever-increasing quantity and variety of available drug treatments, should result in rising demand for both prescription and over-the-counter medications. This means great job prospects are in store for pharmacy technicians.
