Abstract

Emerging value-based payment (VBP) models are changing the way health care is delivered and paid for in the United States. Increasingly, health care providers are compensated for interventions that optimize clinical outcomes. As a result, opportunities for pharmacists to practice at the top of their license and training by delivering patient care services are emerging and expanding.

Developed by the APhA Academy of Pharmacy Practice and Management (APhA–APPM) Medical Home/ACO Special Interest Group (SIG), this resource highlights 10 examples in which pharmacists are successfully integrated into PCMHs and/or ACOs in various practice settings.
