[Agency] AHRQ [Project Title] TOOLS FOR OPTIMIZING PRESCRIBING, MONITORING AND EDUCATION [Institution] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS AT CHICAGO [Amount] $0 [Summary] the TOP-MED CERT will pursue the following specific aims: 1. Revitalize the drug formulary as an evidenced based tool for directing drug therapy decisions. 2. Re-engineer drug usage review (DUR) systems and processes so that data analysis is easier, more timely and more likely to yield valid generalizations. 3. Reduce prescribing errors and enhance recognition of adverse drug effects in high hazard contexts by linking lab and pharmacy information systems and generating clinical alerts when problems are detected. 4. Develop, deploy and evaluate an N-of-1 trial service, integrated into a formulary restriction program, in order to support the goal of individualized therapy without succumbing to the unsafe, unscientific experimentation that is often now the norm. 5. Implement and study the impact of pharmacoeconomic support to enhance formulary decision making, as well as evaluate the cost-effectiveness of other interventions.
