Hi pals,this time the post is going to be about pharmacy technician training.Another career which related to medical word is work as a pharmacy technician. Technicians working in pharmacies have some of responsibilities such as prepare the prescription, which could include counting pills, or weighing, measuring, or mixing the medication. Once the prescription is filled, a pharmacy tech will price and file it, and it must be checked by an accredited physician before it is given to a patient. In this setting technologists may also prepare insurance claim forms, stock, and take inventory of prescription and over-the-counter medications.
So, if you are interested in this field you have to complete some sort of pharmacy tech formal training. There is a pharmacy technician certification examination, and through education, on-the-job training, or a combination of the two, technicians can work toward certification.
After completed, you are already on your way to getting the acclaimed pharmacy technician salary!

Yes, just like other medical jobs as medical transcription, billing or coding, pharmacy technician is being offered as well. Schools and universities and even online providers are now giving training programs to interested students. The way I see it, just like MT, it is one of the growing industries and I think it is going to continue to grow as time goes by.
