Although resources were scarce for teams at smaller private practices, the pharmacists all agreed that patient care is always the priority.
There has been a general shift toward earlier treatment and less tolerance for clinically silent disease activity.
Although questions remain about ideal treatment strategies, consistent data have shown that patients should be treated early.
Aligning community pharmacy interventions with top-down findings, payers’ population health priorities, and identified unmet needs can help develop a sustainable pathway.
As value-based health care models become more widespread, these types of interventions will be important to demonstrate the value of pharmacist-embedded HSSPs.
Future potential directions include measuring the impact of clinical pharmacist interventions on referral utility, disease-specific clinical outcomes, patient satisfaction, medication adherence, and absenteeism.
Properly training staff and gaining stakeholder buy-in are crucial steps to successfully designing and launching a program to screen and address health-related social needs.
The results reinforce other real-world evidence from several broad infant immunization programs in the US, Spain, and France.
