Variables affecting pharmacists' willingness to accept third-party prescription contracts: a conjoint analysis.
Pharmacists were asked to rate their willingness to accept 12 hypothetical third-party prescription contracts offering different combinations of dispensing fees, average wholesale price levels for the ingredients, and payment lag times. Dispensing fee explained the most variance in the dependent variable of willingness to accept third-party contracts, followed by payment lag time and average wholesale price level.
