@iSIMPATHY reviews improve quality, safety and outcomes meaningful to patient; economic benefits are a product of optimising medicines.

In the realistic scenario (80% of working time spent on review-related activity), each review:
Costs €187
Saves €376 drug costs and €65-518 avoided healthcare utilisation
Each pharmacist employed generates net savings of €124,968 - 347,844 per annum 2/3

Delighted to share our cost-benefit analysis of @iSIMPATHY medicines reviews in Ireland rdcu.be/dJxlL.
Employing a pharmacist to work in GP practices to deliver person-centred reviews is economically dominant, generating savings outweighing the cost of delivery. 1/3

🚨 Our new paper published in @IntJClinPharm shows that #patient-centred #medication reviews by #pharmacists in general practice settings produce substantial savings 💶 💊
These roles should be considered for wider implementation (in #Ireland & beyond)

A cross border polypharmacy project has improved patient safety. It has resulted in people taking fewer and more appropriate medicines, and has reduced adverse drug reactions. bit.ly/4992xij #OurHealthService
