There is a growing body of research supporting how pharmacists improve patient outcomes and population health. However, some of these interventions are not adopted more widely within the modern healthcare system. Multiple barriers can stifle innovation and uptake of new services that are clearly beneficial to patients. So how can change be catalyzed? In this episode of DISRxUPT, Dr. Denise Rhoney, who serves as the Ron and Nancy McFarlane Distinguished Professor in the Division of Practice Advancement and Clinical Education at the University of North Carolina’s Eshelman School of Pharmacy, joins us to discuss this topic of implementation science. Listen as we discuss how implementation science can be used as a key tool to foster innovation in healthcare today.
