Discussion Topic: Class team Collaboration on Policies & Procedures for Health Information Exchange of Pharmacy Facilities

CLASSMATE POST #1

So I have worked in a pharmacy for over 10 years, retail, specialty, and long term care. They were all pretty much the same as far as security, fraud waste and abuse training is something that I have to take every year. One of the biggest issues we face is with controlled substances, esp[ecially with the ongoing opioid crisis. So we can talk about the policies for dispensing controlled substances especially those that are classified as C2’s (narcotics), or we can talk about fraud waste and abuse as it pertains to CMS. Let me know what you guys have found so we can post on time. Here are a few links to the information I found.

Were you familiar with any of these? Did any stand out?

Now it’s your turn! Go out into the world and bring me back at least 2 strange BUT true weird facts associated with the urinary system (kidney, nephron, urinary bladder, ureters, urethra). Make sure to include your references and perform a quick double-check to ensure your information is true.

Have fun!!
