Abstract:
Board-certified psychiatric pharmacists (BCPPs) are doctorate-level, board-certified experts in managing medications for people living with psychiatric disorders, including substance use disorders. BCPPs work as part of an integrated health care team that provides comprehensive medication management focused on optimizing medication-related outcomes and ensuring the safety of the prescribed medications. The authors describe BCPP education and training, settings in which BCPPs practice, and in what roles. Current policies that limit BCPP involvement in behavioral health care and proposed solutions to support the role of BCPPs in addressing behavioral health workforce shortages are discussed.
