  • Prescription Fulfillment
  • Willingness to Refer Friends or Family Members
  • Key performance metrics around patient satisfaction were:
  • Prompt Call Center Interactions
  • Prescription Fulfillment
  • Staff Listening Skills and Empathy
  • Staff Knowledge of Disease and Medication

Determining an NPS allows for a comparison between specialty pharmacy and other service-oriented organizations in a variety of sectors.
