Structural-level changes in healthcare organizations bringing facilities varying in size, systems, and complexity under the new integrated care delivery networks create unprecedented challenges. This paper develops guiding principles for formulary management in automated systems that facilitate medication management and alignment of medication information technology (IT) solutions in healthcare organizations ranging in size from a single facility to very large enterprise/multifacility networks. Summary This paper describes formulary management best practices for healthcare organizations as they follow crucial medication management processes: formulary item builds, urgent and nonformulary medication requests, and formulary item build testing and maintenance. As medication management practices are embedded in automated technologies that are similar yet nuanced, we pay special attention to practices and change control processes that maximize coordination among systems while preserving medication data integrity and reducing medication errors. Conclusion For increasingly complex healthcare systems with multiple medication management system demands, formulary drug database builds and maintenance are challenging and time-consuming. Formulary item build, testing, and maintenance processes involve multifunctional teams collaborating to ensure the integrity of data, prevent unexpected system incompatibilities, and improve patient safety by reducing medication errors. Ideally, formulary item build, testing, and maintenance processes produce consistent final drug records in IT systems meeting user needs. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
