Working conditions are leading to increasing levels of burnout among healthcare workers. The solution? An evolution of the healthcare team.
During a STAT in DC event, Surescripts Chief Executive Officer Frank Harvey shared his insights on how pharmacists can bridge the gaps in availability of primary care.
Harvey outlined a “three-legged stool” of improvements that would make this evolution possible:
Technology improvements that make it easier to connect healthcare professionals and access health intelligence
Legislative changes that better enable pharmacists to provide patient care at the full extent of their education and training
Proper payment structures that properly reimburse pharmacists and pharmacy technicians for the services and care they provide
