| Abstract | OBJECTIVE: To develop consensus recommendations that provide principles and strategies for effectively implementing health care system changes, including an optimized role for pharmacists to engage in team-based, patient-centered care. DATA SOURCES: An interdisciplinary group of stakeholders representing 12 states and 10 pharmacy practice settings. Consortium participants represented many areas of pharmacy, medicine, and nursing. SUMMARY: The health care environment in the United States is undergoing unprecedented change, with myriad health care reform initiatives, mounting evidence for the positive contributions of pharmacists, and federal government interest in pharmacist-provided services from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and Surgeon General. Many individuals and groups have asserted that pharmacists are a dramatically underused resource that could help improve outcomes within our health care delivery system, if properly engaged as essential members of the health care team. In January 2012, the American Pharmacists Association Foundation convened a roundtable consortium in Washington, DC, for dialogue on the role of pharmacists in patient care. The consortium participants' seven recommendations for advancing pharmacists' patient care services and collaborative practice agreements included (1) use of consistent terminology; (2) provider control over collaborative practice details; (3) infrastructure that embeds pharmacists' patient care services and collaborative practice agreements into care; (4) use of electronic health records and technology in patient care services; (5) relationships among the health care team that are strong, trusting, and mutually beneficial; (6) incentive alignments based on meaningful process and outcome measures; and (7) redesign of health professionals' practice acts, education curriculums, and operational policies. CONCLUSION: Pharmacists deliver many patient care services to sustain and improve health. In an era of health care reform, advancing the level and scope of pharmacy practice holds promise to improve health and reduce costs for care. Published evidence supports the role of pharmacists as essential members of the interdisciplinary health care team and emphasizes that pharmacists are well positioned to perform medication- and wellness-related interventions that improve patient outcomes. The consortium participants' seven recommendations provide methods and infrastructure for empowering collaborative, interdisciplinary care. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
