Course description
Many recent initiatives have designed care models that incorporate pharmacists into the initiation, titration and monitoring of drug therapy. In this presentation, we will describe current approaches to pharmacist and physician collaborative practices and their effect on care optimization using a cardiovascular-renal-metabolic collaborative clinic as an example. This information will assist pharmacists with designing and implementing their own care models to improve update of novel therapies.
This is an accredited, livestreamed course offered by Harvard Medical School as part of the Contemporary Pharmacotherapy: Collaborative Clinical Explorations series.
