Clinical Outcomes Committee

The mission of the clinical outcomes committee is to highlight the distinct patient care services provided by specialty pharmacy, specialty pharmacists and/or associated service companies that demonstrate improved clinical, economic and humanistic outcomes at the start of therapy, and that mitigate risk of suboptimal therapeutic outcomes throughout therapy; to recommend core metrics for which specialty pharmacy will be measured for the purposes of network inclusion, business insights, and performance guarantees; to develop enhanced metrics to drive strategic partnerships and reimbursement; and to promote the ongoing professional recognition of the value that specialty pharmacies and specialty pharmacists offer consistent with the mission of NASP and the needs of the membership and the patients we serve.

Meets: Fourth Monday of the month via Zoom, 11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. EST
