1 Long Term Care Pharmacy Medication Reconciliation in The Electronic Age Courtney Doherty Oland R.Ph, MBA President The LTC setting is currently under enormous transformation silver tsunami - greater demand/ more DEMANDING Facility staff expertise level/ expectations Diversification in the definition of Long Term Care Increased demands for specialty solutions that are timely, convenient, clinically appropriate and cost effective Explosion of Technology Collaborative practice including vaccinations 1

LTC Multi-Dose Packaging Compliance Packaging Fill Schemes Cycle/ anniversary/ on demand DEA Agent issues Transmission of Rx E RX and Remote Dispensing A transition in care is defined by the American Geriatrics Society as a set of actions designed to ensure the coordination and continuity of healthcare as patients transfer between different locations or different levels of care within the same location. Successful transitional care depends upon a comprehensive treatment plan, shared by healthcare providers at both the transferring facility and the receiving facility or community-based provider(s). Clinicians, welltrained in chronic, complex care needs and focused on the patient's goals, preferences and evolving clinical status, are mandatory. A successful transition of care moves beyond the obligatory medication reconciliation and includes patient and caregiver education and extensive coordination of services between the healthcare professionals involved in each transition. 2

3 Case Study Alfred, a healthy 81-year old, was hospitalized for a knee replacement. He was started on a blood thinner to prevent blood clots following surgery. Shortly thereafter, he developed symptoms suggestive of internal bleeding. The blood thinner was stopped pending testing. Meanwhile, Alfred was transferred to a rehab facility. Three days later, he was lethargic, experiencing chest pain, difficulty breathing and was subsequently sent to the emergency room. He was diagnosed with multiple blood clots. Testing for possible internal bleeding had never been completed and the rehab facility did not question his post-surgical transfer orders, which were missing a blood thinner. Missed opportunities from both the discharging and receiving healthcare providers caused not only a re-hospitalization, but almost cost Alfred his life.

6 Why EHR Are Imperative for Nursing Homes/ LTC Even without federal EHR adoption incentives, skilled nursing settings will soon find that they have to adopt EHRs Three factors will motivate the move to technology: Stage 2 requirements: The Stage 2 Meaningful Use requirements require hospitals and physicians to submit written care summaries for every care transition. That includes the point when a patient moves between a hospital and a nursing home. Interoperability: The Stage 2 Meaningful Use requirements also stipulate that EHR systems must be interoperable. This requirement will ease concerns among nursing home administrators that the software they purchase will not be able to interact with hospital-based systems. 6

7 Why EHR Are Imperative for Nursing Homes Physician expectations: Young physicians who grew up using technology will expect skilled nursing settings to have EHRs. These physicians are unlikely to work in long-term care settings that don't have the tools they already use.
