Emergency Medicine Pharmacist Prescriptive Authority for Resolution of Outpatient Prescription Issues
Broad EMP prescriptive authority through CPAs enables independent resolution of postdischarge prescription issues, improving care continuity, potentially reducing ED revisits, and sparing provider time to optimally take care of patients. This model can serve as a framework for other institutions aiming to optimize pharmacist-driven transitions of care.
