Saturday, October 12, 2024 from 9:45 AM to 11:15 AM MST at Convention Center North Building / Meeting Room 129

Available for 1.50 hours of CPE credit
Activity Number: 0217-0000-24-113-L04-P
Activity Type: An Application-Based Activity

Clinical pharmacists have established critical roles in optimizing patient outcomes, but barriers exist to ensure all patients receive this care. Barriers include value tracking and workload metrics, societal impression, and recognizing value in direct and non-direct patient care. These barriers are faced in every discipline of clinical pharmacy. Pharmacists are continually evolving in their practice models to provide the best possible care to patients. The laws around provider status and advanced practice pharmacy models are changing rapidly and often vary from state to state since there is not currently a federal mandate for pharmacist provider status. The recent global pandemic also highlighted the areas where pharmacists can serve to fill in gaps of patient healthcare; many laws were amended or changed to allow pharmacists to provide care during this period and these changing laws will have a lasting impact on the ways pharmacists can impact care. This session will be divided into 3 sections, an introductory session that will highlight current novel practice models that demonstrate the essential role of the pharmacist followed by a pro-con debate about the necessity of provider status or advanced pharmacy practice models to provide impactful patient care.

Learning Objectives

1. Discuss the currently described and documented impact of pharmacists in various patient care settings.

2. Formulate a plan for applying novel pharmacy practice models to different areas of pharmacy practice.

3. Illustrate the current impact of provider status or advanced pharmacy practice models in optimizing patient care.

4. Differentiate the utilization or absence of provider status and advanced pharmacy practice models in the advancement of pharmacists and the ability to improve patient care.
