Low Call center / PBM pharmacy technician turnover:
Mail Order / PBM pharmacies generally pay their Pharmacy Technicians better then other areas of pharmacy. Good pay coupled with a desirable working environment means that PBM pharmacies have an easier time recruiting experienced technicians. Call Center Pharmacies very rarely hire inexperienced Pharmacy Technicians. If you have been in retail pharmacy for any length of time, you know the frustration of hiring and training technicians with no pharmacy experience. PBM pharmacies also have many technicians working at one time so a single technician sick call is more easily absorbed and is less likely to ruin your entire day.
