The ambulatory pharmacy navigator program provides for improved service levels for HMH Discharge Patients by seeking to supply medications prescribed by the patient's physician for discharge in a timely manner so that the patient can be discharged efficiently from an acute care HMH facility and transition directly to home. The Navigator I assists with obtaining all information necessary for prescription processing, helps prioritize workflow, helps troubleshoot barriers (financial, insurance, or clinical) and facilitates delivery of completed prescriptions back to the patient prior to discharge.
The Navigator ensures OBRA compliance by ensuring an offer to counsel is made and that patient medication educational needs are met. The Navigator I functions will include all job functions of an Ambulatory Pharmacy Technician plus additional duties described below.
