VA OIG Testified before Congress on Medication Management in VA Health Care

Описание: “Medication reconciliation is most critical during transitions of care, such as at discharge or when a patient moves between different levels of care, or receives care from VA and community providers. These transitions increase the risk of medication-related errors due to miscommunication. To reduce this risk, healthcare teams must ensure that, at each transition point, the patient or caregiver clearly understands the treatment plan.”

— Dr. Julie Kroviak, MD, Principal Deputy Assistant Inspector General, in the role of Acting Assistant Inspector General for Healthcare Inspections
