Activity Overview

With technology advances and widespread Electronic Health Record (EHR) adoption in health systems, one challenge faced by many institutions and pharmacy practices is how to bridge the gap between data science and clinical practice to collect and use data in a meaningful way and develop tools and best practices. In this presentation, experts in the field of pharmacy informatics will share experiences on how successful program managers are turning documentation into actionable data, the challenges and rewards of the process development, how data was subsequently used, and future opportunities for pharmacy documentation using emerging technologies.
