We’re pleased to announce that our FDB Targeted Medication Warnings™ solution, which is part of the FDB PatientFirst™ suite of clinical decision support (CDS) solutions, can now be integrated using CDS Hooks*. This enhancement enables healthcare IT developers to streamline the integration and seamless delivery of next-generation, patient-focused prescribing guidance offered by FDB Targeted Medication Warnings within any electronic health record (EHR) system. “Optimized medication safety alerts, made possible by FDB Targeted Medication Warnings, represent a significant progression in CDS capabilities at Lehigh Valley Health Network (LVHN) and many other healthcare institutions,’ said Donald Levick, MD, MBA, consultant and former Chief Medical Information Officer at LVHN in Pennsylvania. “Advantages include more efficient medication guidance, improvements in alert acceptance and override rates, and greater clinician satisfaction.

This bill could present operational challenges to Pharmacies operating in Illinois if passed. Highlights of the proposal include: ➡ It requires pharmacies to notify patients that an accessible prescription label is available upon request at no additional cost. ➡ If a person informs the pharmacy that they are blind, visually impaired, or otherwise print-disabled, the pharmacy must provide an accessible label. ➡ The bill aims to enhance accessibility and ensure that prescription information is available to all patients.
Illinois House Bill 5505: Improving Prescription Label Accessibility In a move toward greater inclusivity, Illinois has introduced House Bill 5505, focusing on pharmacy practices and prescription labels. Here’s what you need to know: 1. Accessible Prescription Labels HB 5505 emphasizes that pharmacies must inform patients about the availability of accessible prescription labels. These labels cater to individuals who are blind, visually impaired, or otherwise print disabled. By providing this service at no extra cost, Illinois aims to ensure that everyone can access vital prescription information. 2. Empowering Patients The bill recognizes the importance of empowering patients to manage their health effectively. When a person requests an accessible label, the pharmacy must promptly accommodate their needs. This step promotes independence and autonomy for patients with varying abilities. 3. Bridging the Gap By implementing accessible prescription labels, Illinois bridges the gap between healthcare services and diverse patient populations. Clear, legible information is crucial for medication adherence and safety. HB 5505 takes a significant step toward achieving this goal. 4. Collaboration with Pharmacists Pharmacists play a pivotal role in this process. They are the frontline professionals who interact directly with patients. HB 5505 encourages collaboration between pharmacists and patients, fostering a healthcare environment that values accessibility and understanding. Stay ahead of regulatory changes with RegComply™!

Fourteen pharmacy executives recently shared their key focus areas for the remainder of the year in a recent Beckers Article, here are two that really stand out: 1) Enhancing medication safety and adherence: Pharmacy chiefs are prioritizing initiatives to improve medication safety and increase patient adherence. This includes implementing technology solutions, such as electronic prescribing and medication reconciliation tools, as well as patient education programs 2) Optimizing pharmacy operations and workflow: Pharmacy chiefs are exploring ways to optimize pharmacy operations and workflow to enhance efficiency and patient care. This includes automating repetitive tasks, implementing electronic health record (EHR) integration, and streamlining medication management processes. Healthgrades is using cutting edge Medchat technology to partner with Specialty Pharmacies and take action in solving for these initiatives. Case Study & Results: By leveraging our bidirectional SMS capabilities for automated Rx refills and medication adherence, a leading partner saw the following: Before automation, a pharmacy tech attempted to handle refills manually by calling 3-4 times before connecting, if at all. 47% utilization in the 1st month in an older population, up from 10% pre-Medchat Patient Volume up 111% while call volumes only increased 8% Averaging 1,000 automated refills per month. https://lnkd.in/gd6dyUyR
