title: Principal findings from the Washington State cognitive services demonstration project.
abstract: In addition to dispensing, pharmacists are ideally positioned to provide cognitive services that are targeted at optimizing drug therapy through identification and resolution of drug therapy problems. The Washington Cognitive Activities and Reimbursement Effectiveness project sought to determine: (1) if pharmacists would respond to a financial incentive by performing more cognitive services, and (2) the effect on drug cost of cognitive services they performed.
