Evaluating Pharmacy Dispensing Models to Help Improve Cancer Care Delivery Overview

With this project ACCC seeks to gain deeper insight on the impact variations in dispensing models within hospitals, health systems, or practice groups has on patient-centered cancer care delivery, coordination of care as patients transition between care settings, and optimal pharmacy operations. Important components of coordinated, patient-focused care delivery may be affected by decisions related to adoption of particular dispensing models in oncology. These decisions, in turn, may be influenced by multiple factors including:

• Organizational culture and structure
• Commitment to empower pharmacy staff to work at top of these licenses
• Technology integration challenges in dispensing
• Performance metrics
• Payment models
• Internal and external specialty pharmacy relationships
