Description:
To say that managing a hospital's formulary is challenging is often an understatement. And to say that formulary integration across multiple clinical information systems is difficult is an even larger understatement. Further integration of a charging process that complies with the formulary and is 100% accurate is an additional layer of complexity. Learn tricks and tips on managing your institution's formulary in the electronic world in this session.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify challenges you may face when integrating a formulary across multiple information systems.
- Define your barriers to implementing a charging process that is consistent with the formulary.
- Describe methods and processes that have been used to successfully integrate formulary and charging information across information systems.
- Explain ways that your pharmacy department can take leadership in, and informatics personnel can facilitate, an accurate formulary and charging process.
