The robotisation of pharmacies has been a comprehensive and yet subtle development proceeding over the past two decades. Pharmacies provide a novel and relevant framework for the study of automation where multiple factors, including professional interests, governmental regulation, and private business interests all determine how robots are integrated into work. Applying a mixed methods approach including interviews with automation manufacturers and pharmacy workers as well as a comprehensive survey (N = 573), we investigated how pharmacy automation is produced and implemented. Our research shows that pharmacy automation is deemed more useful by the pharmaceutical staff compared to technical assistants. Autonomous machines may reduce workers' own autonomy. Significant factors in evaluating the usefulness of automation were primarily autonomy and time pressure. The findings further reveal that pharmacy robots facilitate a new spatial design where the effectiveness of automation can also be harnessed to increase over-the-counter product sales amplify the societal use of medication, also known as pharmaceuticalisation.

Performance evaluation tools have been vastly used in many areas of healthcare, and supply chains in specific. However, the adoption of performance appraisal in the public sector has lagged. The present study sought to explore current literature and highlight the state of the art of performance evaluation in public healthcare supply chain management. A structured and systematic literature review method was used to identify research papers covering the study theme. Through the resulting bibliographic portfolio of 13 relevant papers, we examined the application of performance evaluation methods employed to measure the overall performance of supply chain management in public healthcare and highlight the key indicators and focus of the studies. Most studies focused on operational efficiency indicators, material management efficiency, and financial performance. The small number of studies identified in this review raises the question of whether the sub-field is mature enough to warrant a literature review.
