Rafael Saenz – I am an Operations Manager with the Department of Pharmacy at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. I am a fairly new practitioner who underwent formal management training and has developed my own staff to take on leadership roles in the department. I understand the delta between formal management training and traditional matriculation into management roles in our profession. Having to mentor, coach and train new managers has given me a solid understanding of what is required to be successful in pharmacy management. Additionally, I co-founded the UPMC 2 year combined Masters/ Practice Management Residency Program through which new practitioners (primarily) are provided with formal management training.

Solving the Puzzle: Effective Implementation of Outpatient Clinical Pharmacy Services
Description
Learning Objectives:
Analyze the changing workforce and financial environment of healthcare over the next decade that will provide opportunity for the development of new pharmacy services. Design a strategy to move health-system pharmacy practice into roles that will advance the profession (e.g., use of pharmacy technicians, influencing your boss, or health-system administrators). Evaluate the strategies utilized by high-performing pharmacy departments to advance pharmacy practice and assess how they could be utilized in your organization. Compose a business case for your pharmacy to achieve the resources needed to expand pharmacy practice (e.g., ROI, technology, medication errors, customer service, health-system administrators).
