You know a pharmacy does more to fill a prescription than just count out pills on a slip of paper, right?

How many pharmacists and pharm techs can be automated away by amazon that pillpack hasn’t already? And this is just a rhetorical question, neither of us are really qualified to address all the tasks to be done, nor current automation levels.

GP is likely referring to the requirement for humans to count and verify the packs of pills. FDA rules don't allow all of that to be automated away.
