This uniquely designed self-assessment tool is intended to be used by individual pharmacists and other health care practitioners and by organizations of virtually any size, from a physician's office to a large corporate health plan. The interactive tool provides individual practitioners and organizations with an online step-by-step process to identify, evaluate and improve upon specific task, skills and functions that contribute to effective medication therapy management.
By answering a series of questions contained in the interactive self-assessment tool, the program helps identify drug therapy management areas ripe for improvement. The program then populates any one of three action plan templates chosen by the user. The action plan template provides a format for defining measurable goals, assigning responsibilities, identifying available resources, and tracking progress, thus beginning a continuous quality improvement process.
