2025.02 Part 1 Enhancing Medication Safety in Transitions of Care

In this episode, we'll focus on Transitions of Care (TOC) and the critical role pharmacists play in ensuring medication safety and continuity during care transitions. We'll explore ISMP Best Practice 21 recommendations, discuss how pharmacist-led interventions help reduce hospital readmissions, and review key CMS and Joint Commission quality measures that reinforce the pharmacist's role in TOC programs.
