Hub and Spoke Is Coming: Why Now Is the Time for Pharmacies to Prepare

The pharmacy sector is on the cusp of a significant transformation. With new legislation set to enable hub and spoke dispensing across different legal entities, this long awaited shift has the ability to redefine how community pharmacies operate.

As experts in hub and spoke, we've created a comprehensive guide, "Hub and Spoke Is Coming", to help pharmacy teams understand the upcoming changes and how to make the most of them.

What’s Changing?

Historically, hub and spoke dispensing for pharmacy has only ever been allowed within the same legal entity. The upcoming legislation will remove this restriction, leveling the playing field for smaller and independent pharmacies and enabling them to benefit from centralised dispensing models previously only available to larger groups.

Expected to come into force as early as September/October 2025, these changes will provide new opportunities, especially for those who act now.

Why You Should Start Planning Today

The funding pressures facing community pharmacy are well known. Hub and spoke models represent a scalable, cost-effective solution that can:

• Free up pharmacist and technician time

• Reduce operational costs

• Improve stock management

• Create capacity for clinical service delivery

Using data from existing pharmacy partners, we’ve shown that:

• Payroll costs per item can be reduced by up to 81%

• 50% of total dispensing volumes can be removed from branches

• ROI can be achieved in under two years

What’s in the Guide?

Our full guide covers:

• The legislative background and what it means

• Estimated timeline for implementation

• Tangible business benefits and cost savings
