Abstrakt: |
Cost can be a barrier to achieving health equity for guideline‐directed medical therapy; however, ambulatory care pharmacists who provide services in primary care settings can assist in reducing these barriers. Strategies to reduce drug cost should be tailored to patient‐specific factors including insurance type, drugs being prescribed, and availability of local and national assistance programs. Pharmacists can use a team‐based approach, when possible, to promote health equity in drug access due to cost. The authors provide recommendations that can be incorporated into clinical practice and improve health equity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
