I'm posting for our Pharmacy Director: Our pharmacy is working with the imaging department to meet the standards and intent JC has issued related to pharmacy oversight of contrast agents used in Medical imaging. We plan on pharmacy screening inpatients for use of imaging products in advance, and outpatients using pre-approved protocols. I am interested in learning how other small hospitals have done their procedures, and if Meditech can help communications. For instance,
1. are you entering all contrast agents in the Meditech PHA system like you would any other drug? 2. does your pharmacy also dispense these agents? 3. Did you create a new order type for the imaging drug dictionaries to use? We thought this might be helpful to track only contrast products. 4. Do you use any kind of Meditech automation to alert the pharmacy to an imaging procedure that needs a contrast agent screened? All help or opinions would be appreciated. Bill Arrington D.Ph.
