Which component is for pharmacies serving out-of-province or international patients?

  1. Distance care

  2. Central fill

  3. External dispensing

  4. Satellite pharmacy

The correct answer is: Distance care

This component is known as "Distance care" because it allows pharmacies to serve patients who are not located in the same province or country. "Central fill" refers to a system where prescriptions are filled at a central location and then distributed to various pharmacies. "External dispensing" is a practice where a prescription is filled by one pharmacy and then dispensed by another. "Satellite pharmacy" is a smaller pharmacy located in a larger healthcare facility, typically used for fast service and quick access to medication. These other options do not specifically address the aspect of serving out-of-province or international patients.
