October 19, 2022 A Tale of Two Health Systems, Retail Pharmacy, & the Evolution of the CancelRx | Un-Scripted by Surescripts
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.
