Abstract:
|
Objectives: A central goal of the Healthcare Utilization Management Center (HUMC) at the University of Rhode Island, College of Pharmacy is to expose students to the challenges faced by organizations managing healthcare services. Methods: Students in the HUMC partner with center staff in order to complete client based projects. The center specializes in providing healthcare management solutions for clients including: clinical services, strategic planning, contracting, marketing, and research. Results: Several projects have been completed by HUMC students. One of these projects, an affiliation with the Rhode Island Department of Corrections (RIDOC), focuses on the improvement of clinical services. Students involved in this project conduct clinical reviews, and provide P&T Committee support. They have also provided support for the medical and psychological committees, including literature review and guideline development. As a result of the efforts of the HUMC students and staff, the RIDOC was able to cut medication costs by 15% between 2000 and 2005. A partnership with the Office of Vermont Health Access (OVHA) has given students the opportunity to provide strategic planning and research support to Vermont’s Medicaid program. This project involved an in depth analysis of the care of mental health patients in this program. Implications: The partnerships developed through the HUMC have provided unique experiences for many professional students in the University of Rhode Island, College of Pharmacy. Additionally, this program offers clients the unique insight provided by highly trained students in their final year of the doctor of pharmacy program. |
