That's a bit harsh. I get what sosoo is saying. Apparently, current procedures make it impossible or near impossible for the verifying pharmacist to verify that the exp date printed on the label is within the exp date on the manufacturer stock bottle. So sosoo either has to trust that the technicians are verifying the exp dates, or they have to change procedures so that the technicians include the stock bottle with every script they verify. Sosoo seems to argue that neither solution is realistic with the way things are set up at CVS, especially when it comes to meds that are RTSed. Sosoo understands how exp dates work, and knows that it's wrong and illegal, but seemingly is not able to see a solution to how to verify exp dates or ensure technicians are checking exp dates, while still staying in line with what CVS tells them to do. Sosoo is arguing that CVS procedures are set up in a way that makes it nearly impossible to verify exp dates while performing all of their other duties as a pharmacist.
If sosoo's assessment is accurate, how do other pharmacists in CVS handle this issue efficiently while still meeting all of the other expectations put on them by management? Do all CVS pharmacists simply cut corners when it comes to exp dates? Do they just blindly trust that their technicians are checking exp dates? CVS pharmacists who refuse to do so - what happens to them?
If sosoo's assessment is inaccurate - how so? what are they missing and how do they correct course?
