  • Structural equation modeling (SEM) was applied to analyze the interrelationships between factors.

    • Main Results:

    • Four main factors of pharmacy services were identified: dispensing, supply of goods, offering home care, and cooperation in community health and medical programs.
    • Strengthening cooperation in community health programs directly improves dispensing and home care functions.
    • Enhancing home care services directly improves the supply of goods, including long-term care and sanitary items.

    Conclusions:

    • Cooperation in community health and medical programs is the most critical area for prioritizing the expansion and upgrading of pharmacy functions.
    • Investments in community health partnerships yield significant benefits across multiple pharmacy service domains.
    • Strategic enhancement of pharmacy roles in community health is essential for advancing home care support.
