| Purpose: To assist researchers in implementing large-scale non-experimental studies in evaluating the impact of technology on medication use; recognizing the need for an evaluation framework for evaluating electronic health record initiatives and identifying the seven steps in the design and implementation of an evaluation study; identifying the role of pharmacists in responding to natural disasters; identifying factors affecting prescription drug utilization for near-poor elders within an economic model of consumer choice; and identifing collaborative clinical activities for pharmacy and medical students. Relevance: The potential for e-prescribing standards and sharing information between pharmacies and physician offices has implications for changing the patient-doctor relationship with respect to adherence issues; Canada's latest initiative is the development of a person-specific comprehensive pharmacy network that will be accessible to authorized health care providers at the point of care. This system is vital to improving the effective and efficient use of health care resources and will enable health care providers to make better informed and timely decisions as well as provide government and other organizations with aggregate information for policy development and research that will lead to improved population health; Reflecting on the important role pharmacists played in responding to the hurricane Katrina disaster will assist future disaster relief efforts; Rejecting the hypothesis that consumer decisions respond to predicted end-year rather than current drug prices for a near-poor population has implications for the design of prescription drug insurance programs that can support access to needed medication for near-poor elders as well as cost containment; and The provision of educational materials and review of instruction maximizes medicine's effectiveness, increases compliance, and improves health. Educational collaboration may result in enhanced provision of pharmacy services in many clinical environments. | |||
