abstract: 'Objectives: The objective is to describe and quantify the impact of a
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
novel practice model for pharmacist involvement in care coordination and
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
patient education in hepatitis C virus (HCV) care.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Setting: This practice model was implemented in the gastroenterology
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
clinic at the Richard L. Roudebush Veterans Affairs Medical Center in
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Indianapolis, Indiana.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Practice description: Traditional pretreatment workup for HCV requires
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
multiple on-site appointments to complete imaging and laboratory
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
assessments and for provider and social work appointments. High
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
pretreatment time burden and increasing psychosocial complexity of the
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
patient population present significant barriers to HCV eradication.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Patients frequently miss appointments, and each on-site visit creates a
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
separate opportunity for patients to be lost to follow-up.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Practice innovation: The pharmacist-driven multidisciplinary
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
pretreatment workup process was launched by HCV pharmacists to mitigate
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
barriers. Patients complete the pretreatment evaluation process, which
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
includes same-day pharmacy education, provider visit, social work
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
assessment, FibroScan, and laboratory assessments, in approximately 2.5
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
hours.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Evaluation: Forty-six patients who completed the pharmacist-driven
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
multidisciplinary pretreatment workup process versus 235 patients who
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
completed traditional workup were analyzed for time from date of HCV
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
consultation placement to treatment start and time from most recent HCV
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
provider visit to treatment start.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Results: From time of HCV consult entry to date of treatment start,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
patients were initiated on HCV treatment in an average of 42.2 +/- 7.5
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
days and 184.1 +/- 27.6 days (P = 0.0001) within the intervention and
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
traditional workup groups, respectively. A decreased time from most
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
recent HCV provider visit to treatment initiation was noted between
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
groups with 38.2 +/- 7.1 days and 54.7 +/- 3.6 days (P = 0.04) in the
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
intervention and traditional workup groups, respectively.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Conclusion: The pharmacist-driven multidisciplinary pretreatment workup
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
process is an effective way to engage patients and decrease time to
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
treatment initiation. This model could be replicated in other practice
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
settings, especially those challenged by multi-step care coordination.
