A Conversation With...

Dr. Beth Chester, senior director of clinical pharmacy services and quality at Kaiser Permanente Colorado, explains that the pharmacist has a natural and important role in patient medication reconciliation and review. She describes the dramatic impact that a pilot pharmacist intervention had on emergency department visits and mortality rates among patients just discharged from skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) once the health plan's pharmacists stepped in to monitor medication therapy in this population.

Healthcare Questions & Answers...


Health Coaches Fuel Smoking Cessation ROI

Each week, healthcare professionals respond to a reader's query on an industry issue. This week's expert is Dr. Elizabeth Rula, principal investigator of Health Outcomes Research at Healthways Inc.

Question: With what factors have health coaches made the largest impact on ROI?

Response: Exercise and diet are huge components. Both are risk factors that can lead to multiple different chronic conditions, primary diabetes and heart disease. Also, there is definitely a link between these risk factors and productivity. It is obvious that as people become thinner as they exercise more and have a healthier diet, they would have a great energy level that would improve their productivity. But to expand upon that, smoking is a risk factor that has a clearly established link to increased costs. Although this might not be an effect at this point — luckily smoking rates are going down to some extent — there is still a huge proportion of the population, especially in certain employer groups, who smoke. This is clearly an area where savings is possible.
