Optimizing warfarin and dual oral anticoagulation practices in an academic clinic during a merger amid the COVID-19 pandemic in a marginalized population

Multi-faceted strategies significantly improved warfarin safety during the project and maintained these improvements for 24 months. Transitioning from warfarin to DOACs was crucial for optimizing anticoagulation management with limited resources. The lead physician and team used various tools to address barriers to effective warfarin management, ensure appropriate DOAC prescribing, and enhance practices for DOAC prescriptions. This project effectively addressed barriers, improved population health, and provided a model for anticoagulation management in primary care settings.
