    The Pharmacy and Therapeutics (P&T) Committee faces evolving healthcare challenges, requiring adaptation in drug cost-effectiveness and formulary management. This includes defining roles for physicians, pharmacists, and pharmacy directors in standardizing therapy and dosing policies.

    Area of Science:

    • Health Policy
    • Pharmacy Administration
    • Pharmacoeconomics

    Background:

    • Healthcare reforms necessitate adjustments in hospital pharmacy and therapeutics committee functions.
    • Increasing focus on cost-effective drug therapy presents new challenges for P&T Committees.
    • The evolving landscape requires P&T Committees to address formulary management and non-formulary agent use.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze the impact of healthcare changes on P&T Committee operations.
    • To provide guidance on managing cost-effective drug therapy and formulary decisions.
    • To clarify the roles of various stakeholders within the P&T Committee structure.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of current healthcare trends and their influence on P&T Committee responsibilities.

    • P&T Committees must proactively address issues of cost-effectiveness in drug selection.
    • Clear definition of roles for physicians and pharmacists is crucial for effective committee function.
    • Standardization of therapy and drug-dosing policies emerged as key areas for P&T Committee focus.

    Conclusions:

    • P&T Committees require enhanced preparedness to navigate new healthcare challenges, particularly regarding drug costs.
    • Effective collaboration and defined roles among healthcare professionals are essential for optimal P&T Committee performance.
    • Implementing standardized therapeutic and dosing guidelines is vital for efficient and cost-effective medication management.
