Addressing the Quadruple Aim via Embedded Pharmacists: A Value-Proposition!
Given the projected shortage of primary care providers, the explosion of high cost specialty pharmaceuticals, future use of pharmacogenomics in precision medicine and value-based reimbursements, the addition of a pharmacist to most physician practices will be financially prudent if not essential. Leveraging appropriately so the role of the pharmacist in primary care settings, to achieve better health outcomes in all patients and achieve not only the Triple but Quadruple Aim, is a value proposition worthy of exploration by pharmacists.

Promoting Faculty Wellness and Professional Fulfillment
Rio Mar Salon 1–4
Dedicated faculty represent the most important and valuable resource in academic pharmacy, making faculty retention a vital concern to department chairs. Lack of fulfillment and inadequate professional advancement are associated with higher rates of turnover, particularly for female faculty. In this session, Lisa Merlo, Ph.D., MPE, will discuss specific strategies for increasing professional fulfillment while improving engagement and professional advancement among pharmacy faculty. Drawing on the Stanford Model as the foundation of her presentation, Dr. Merlo will discuss how and why many well-intended efforts to prevent “burnout” and promote “wellness” among faculty in academic health centers are destined to fail. In contrast, she will describe evidence-based strategies to inspire faculty to pursue professional fulfillment by focusing on what brings meaning to their work and, by extension, to their lives. Specific interventions that chairs can make to improve fulfillment and professional advancement among female faculty will be discussed, with recommendations to facilitate implementation in departments and colleges of pharmacy.
At the completion of this activity, the participant will be able to:
- Explain the Stanford model of professional fulfillment.
- List common mistakes in faculty wellness initiatives.
- Describe an example intervention to promote wellness and professional fulfillment for women faculty.
