Pharmacists’ Patient Care Process
Collect
The pharmacist assures the collection of necessary subjective and
objective information about the patient in order to understand the
relevant medical/medication history and clinical status of the patient.
Information may be gathered and verified from multiple sources.
Collect:
• A current medication list and medication use history for prescription and
nonprescription medications, herbal products, and other dietary
supplements
• Relevant health data that may include medical history, health and
wellness information, biometric test results, and physical assessment
findings
• Patient lifestyle habits, preferences and beliefs, health and functional
goals, and socioeconomic factors that impact access to medications and
other aspects of care
Assess
The pharmacist assesses the information collected and analyzes the
clinical effects of the patient’s therapy in the context of the patient’s
overall health goals in order to identify and prioritize problems and
achieve optimal care.
Assess:
• Each medication for appropriateness, effectiveness, safety, and patient
adherence
• Health and functional status, risk factors, health data, cultural factors,
health literacy, and access to medications or other aspects of care
• Immunization status and the need for preventive care and other health
care services, where appropriate
Plan
The pharmacist develops an individualized patient-centered
care plan, in collaboration with other health care professionals
and the patient or caregiver that is evidence-based and costeffective.
The plan:
• Addresses medication-related problems and optimizes medication therapy
• Sets goals of therapy for achieving clinical outcomes in the context of the
patient’s overall health care goals and access to care
• Engages the patient through education, empowerment, and selfmanagement
• Supports care continuity, including follow-up and transitions of care as
appropriate
Implement

with other health care professionals and the patient or
caregiver.
The pharmacist:
• Addresses medication- and health-related problems, and engages in
preventive care strategies, including vaccine administration
• Initiates, modifies, discontinues, or administers medication therapy as
authorized
• Provides education and self-management training to the patient or
caregiver
• Contributes to coordination of care, including the referral or transition
of the patient to another health care professional
• Schedules follow-up care as needed to achieve goals of therapy
Follow-up: Monitor and Evaluate
The pharmacist monitors and evaluates the
effectiveness of the care plan and modifies the
plan in collaboration with other health care
professionals and the patient or caregiver as
needed.
Monitor and evaluate:
• Medication appropriateness, effectiveness, and safety and
patient adherence through available health data, biometric
test results and patient feedback
• Clinical endpoints that contribute to the patient’s overall
health
• Outcomes of care, including progress toward or the
achievement of goals of therapy
Application Examples: Service/
Setting

American Society for Automation in Pharmacy Annual Conference • January 21­23, 2016 • Kiawah Island, SC Answer Key 1. It is the only infrastructure being built from scratch to fulfill just that mission. All other
competitors have legacy infrastructures designed for a go-to-store world that locks
them into having their most profitable items poached.
2. Prime Buyers are the: most wired, educated, affluent, biggest-spending customers who
will pay up for: speed, convenience and variety.
3. Most profitable items are picked most often (consumables) with the greatest amount of
Gross Margin dollars in the unit of purchase (a higher price total). AMZ averages 5%
lower prices on the most profitable, popular items.

American Society for Automation in Pharmacy Annual Conference • January 21­23, 2016 • Kiawah Island, SC Answer Key 1. When interdependent, forces of change become too many and strong, the future
becomes more fractured, turbulent and unknowable.
2. The intersection of the most profitable customers who are buying the most profitable
items/services is a company’s “Profit Core”. The core typically involves about 20% of all
active regular customers and 20% of all active, selling items/services. The core profits
will be 120 to 200% of the operating income to pay for: losing customers and items and
a residual profit.
3. An adjacency is a new directional business offshoot of the Profit Core that builds on
existing company strengths. The “best” is the tangential option(s) which are statistically
assessed as most likely to have the highest return for the least risk.

Classification
“(ii) MODEL GUIDELINES- The [HHS] Secretary shall request the United
States Pharmacopeia to develop, in consultation with pharmaceutical benefit
managers and other interested parties, a list of categories and classes that may
be used by prescription drug plans under this paragraph and to revise such
classification from time to time to reflect changes in therapeutic uses of covered
part D drugs and the additions of new covered part D drugs.”

(MMG)
“…in order to comply with the requirement to cover EHB, a plan would
cover at least the greater of:
(1) One drug in every USP category and class; or
(2) the same number of drugs in each category

Container Labeling
  The
purpose of this Expert Panel will be to create
an initial set of classes of known drug crossallergies and cross-intolerance, and to assign drug
codes to support electronic health record (EHR)
documentation.
Health Literacy: Prescription Container
Labeling
 
Purpose
–  To develop standards for prescription container labels as they are the
patient’s best source. The prescription container label must be able to
fulfill the professional obligations of the healthcare provider to give
the patient all the information needed to understand how to safely
use the medication
 
Official May 2013
 
Revision to be published February 2016
 
At a minimum, a prescription container shall be labeled in a patient-centered
manner. The label shall contain essential information that is important for the
patient’s safe and effective use of the medicine. Labels should be designed and
formatted to improve readability and understanding.
 
Example of Prescription Container Labeling:
–  Access for visually impaired
–  Endorsement of the Universal Medication Schedule
–  Endorsement of metric units and associated dosing components for oral liquids
 
28
1 in 5 Americans have access to a patient –centered label

When oral liquid dosage forms are prescribed, the
appropriate dosing component (e.g., oral syringe,
dosing cup) shall be provided to the patient or
caregiver to accurately measure and administer the
oral medication. The graduations on the component
shall be legible and indelible, and the associated
volume markings shall be in metric units and
limited to a single measurement scale that
corresponds with the dose instructions on the
prescription container label (see Packaging and
Storage Requirements <659>).
