The
Correct Way Means Customized Clinical Programs
Correct
Rx delivers a team of professionals with years of experience under
our lab coats. This has enabled our clinical department to design
an evaluation system that not only meets all regulatory requirements,
but provides useful data that can lead to cost reductions. The
Correct way fosters a close working relationship between pharmacy
and customer. We have identified six Global Areas of Focus (GAF)
when considering performance based standards:
| Dispensing
& Delivery |
How
the order is received, processed, documented, filled and delivered
to the appropriate facility. |
| Continuous
Quality Improvement |
Comprehensive
Goal Setting, Implementation, Review and Revision; Data Collection,
Interpretation, and Recommendations; Communication: Reports
and Meetings |
| Professional
and Clinical Program Management |
Developing,
Implementing, and Assessing the Strategy for each of the Global
Areas of Focus |
| Training,
Education and Staff Development |
All
aspects of training and development: includes what we provide,
what we require, and what we encourage for our staff, clients
and customers. |
| Regulatory
Adherence, Licensing and Credentials |
Absolute
assurance that Correct Rx and its employees maintain and follow
all mandated regulations. We strive to exceed compliance standards. |
| Pharmacy
and Therapeutic Processes |

Accuracy
and Evaluation
Accuracy
is an important component in controlling drug costs. Correct Rx
will produce accurate utilization reports focusing on the percentage
of patients currently taking medications, the number of prescriptions
per patient, appropriate therapies with an emphasis on patient
safety and any other necessary quality indicators . These quality
indicators will be monitored and compared to facility statistics
and industry standards. Improved patient care is always our goal.
Correct
Rx's clinical pharmacists also constantly evaluate primary medical
literature to determine which medication regimens produce the
best outcomes. Our recommendations are always clinically sound
and based on community standards of care.
Strategies
In
order to guarantee the best customer and patient care, Correct
Rx puts several strategies into action, such as use of a formulary,
improved bar code technology, automatic substitution, automatic
lab monitoring, clinically sound protocols, customized forms and
automatic stop orders.
A
review of utilization reports and disease states analyses will
determine which high-cost disease states must be addressed.
Generic
Medications
Another
logical solution to many cost issues is the use of generic medications.
Correct Rx uses FDA approved generic medications when available
unless the physician specifically requires a name brand medication.
