The real-time, AI-based platform gathers hospital, patient and pharmacy data to determine situations where a pharmacist-led intervention may be needed. It also helps identify patients who may require additional attention and directs pharmacists to prioritize the neediest patients for consultations at discharge.
Sutter Health aims to reduce inpatient drug spending and support clinical teams through the implementation of the platform. The health system will deploy the solution at four hospital sites, eventually rolling it out to 26 additional sites.
“Applying Qventus’ artificial intelligence to our pharmaceutical operations allows us to identify areas of improvement while keeping the focus on those in our care,” said Ryan Stice, PharmD, executive director of Pharmacy at Sutter Health.
