The Hidden Culprit: Uncovering Medication Risk in Value-based Care

February 4, 2025 12:00 pm

Overview

ACOs have made great progress in reducing total cost of care. Yet, one elusive culprit continues to drive avoidable costs and poorer outcomes: adverse drug events (ADEs). Many avoidable costly hospitalizations and ER visits can be traced back to suboptimal medication regimens. In fact, research reveals that patients with polypharmacy drive a substantial portion of an ACO’s avoidable medical loss ratio. But the most proactive ACOs face challenges due to fragmented care models, complex patient needs, and inadequate clinical decision support.

Join GalenusRx for the start of a three-part investigative webinar series as we uncover medication risks and reveal actionable solutions to improve outcomes, enhance satisfaction, and reduce unnecessary spending. Through perspectives from physicians, pharmacists, and patients, you’ll learn how to:

• Detect and address ADE risks before they escalate.

• Prioritize and manage high-risk polypharmacy patients effectively.

• Transform medication management into a measurable source of cost savings and improved care quality.

Don’t miss the opportunity to solve one of value-based care’s most pressing challenges. During our webinar series, we will crack the code on complex patient cases.

You’re invited to submit de-identified patient cases to FLAACOs Director, Samantha Watson at [email protected]. She will collaborate with Desiree Massari, PharmD, BCGP, Operations Manager at Precision Pharmacotherapy Services, to address them during the sessions.
