Show notes

The Un-Scripted Podcast, episode two is a conversation with: Charlie Oltman, Program Director, NCPDP Foundation Dr. Samantha Pitts, assistant professor, Division of General Internal Medicine, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine Tolu Akinwale, Manager of E-Prescribing, Walgreens Michelle Chui, PharmD, PhD, FAPhA, Hammel-Sanders Professor, Social & Administrative Sciences Division, Director, Health Services Research in Pharmacy PhD Program, Director, Sonderegger Research Center for Improved Medication Outcomes, University of Wisconsin – Madison, School of Pharmacy Recently, a group of health IT leaders came together to discuss the need for CancelRx and the value it delivers far beyond the seemingly simple cancellation of a prescription. The participants in this podcast were part of a study in partnership with UW Health to evaluate the effectiveness of CancelRx to decrease medication discrepancies. Learn more: https://surescripts.com/enhance-prescribing This podcast is a call to action on the broader healthcare industry to standardize digital processes to help remove admin burden and increase patient safety. A highlight from the study: The results of UW Health’s system-wide CancelRx implementation were impressive. Before CancelRx, only about 34% of prescriptions that were discontinued in the clinical setting were also cancelled in the pharmacy. After CancelRx went live, the proportion of successful discontinuations jumped drastically to 93%. Additionally, the amount of time it took to discontinue a medication plummeted from approximately 12 hours to virtually no time at all.

Never Pay the First Bill | PBM Reform Podcast Series Jun 18, 2021

Show notes

Special interview w/ award-winning ProPublica reporter Marshall Allen, a primer for anyone who wants to fight the predatory health care system--and win. We welcome back two patriots in PBM Reform on the interview w/ Marshall. Monique Whitney - CEO of Pharmacists United for Truth & Transparency and PUTT President and Pharmacy Owner Scott Newman. Every year, millions of Americans are overcharged and underserved while the health care industry makes record profits. We know something is wrong, but the layers of bureaucracy designed to discourage complaints make pushing back seem impossible. At least, this is what the health care power players want you to think. Never Pay the First Bill is the guerilla guide to health care the American people and employers need. Drawing on 15 years of investigating the health care industry, reporter Marshall Allen shows how companies and individuals have managed to force medical providers to play fair, and shows how you can, too. He reveals the industry's pressure points and how companies and individuals have fought overbilling, price gouging, insurance denials, and more to get the care they deserve. Laying out a practical plan for protecting yourself against the system's predatory practices, Allen offers the inspiration you need and tried-and-true strategies such as: Analyze and contest your medical bills, so you don't pay more than you should Obtain the billing codes for a procedure in advance Write in an appropriate treatment clause before signing financial documents Get your way by suing in small claims court Few politicians and CEOs have been willing to stand up to the medical industry. It is up to the American people to equip ourselves to fight back for the sake of our families--and everyone else. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

New Roles & Regulations for Pharmacy Technicians | Pharmacy Podcast Nation Jun 14, 2021

Show notes

The Role of the Pharmacy Technician is changing along with the new demands on pharmacists. We discuss the new regulations on Pharmacy Techs with James Broughel, Ph.D. Senior Research Fellow with Mercatus Center at George Mason University Op-Ed Pharm. Tech Regulation James recently wrote an op-ed in the Hill newspaper – a paper read by a lot of people working on Capitol Hill and in government – about putting President Biden’s pharmacy plan into action. This was the President saying he wanted everyone to be able to receive the COVID vaccine by April 19. In the article, James wrote that there is more “that can be done to improve the workings of the pharmacy program. One option is to expand the number of trained pharmacy staff allowed to perform vaccinations.” Have different states taken different approaches with respect to how they’ve treated pharmacies during the pandemic? Is there a best and/or worst approach? Paper on Pharm. Tech Regulation James also wrote a recent paper on Pharmacy Technician Ratio Requirements, which talks about how many states limit the number of pharmacy technicians permitted to work under the supervision of a licensed pharmacist at any given time. And we all probably know that with COVID-19, many states with these regulations have relaxed these rules. You wrote that having less restrictive regulation could actually be an important way to advance public health. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. Learn more about your ad choices.
