Saturday, October 12, 2024 from 1:45 PM to 3:15 PM MST
Available for 1.50 hours of CPE credit
Activity Number: 0217-0000-24-118-L04-P
Activity Type: A Knowledge-Based Activity
Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are measurable and quantifiable metrics that are used to track progress toward specific goals. Unfortunately, KPIs vary greatly between healthcare systems and are viewed as a necessary evil. The Clinical Administration PRN Programming Committee presents a session that will have participants look beyond the numbers and see how collected data can be used to make a positive change in pharmacy practice. Specific topics include: (1) a review of current metrics commonly reported by pharmacies, (2) an examination of additional metrics that can be measured to expand pharmacy practice, (3) a discussion of how benchmarking can be utilized as a means of justification or change to the C-suite, and (4) shared examples where use of metrics has changed pharmacy practice in a panel discussion. The target audience for this session is pharmacy leadership, such as administration, management, and clinical coordinators; however, general information will be provided that can be useful for practitioners who are looking to expand their administrative knowledge.
