Experience

At UMass Medical School’s Clinical Pharmacy Services, we have assembled a team of pharmacists with the expertise and drive to improve our clients’ ability to deliver high-quality pharmaceutical care. While we understand the need to contain the ever-rising cost of medication, our over arching goal is to improve patient outcomes. Our experience and accomplishments demonstrate our team’s dedication to achieving that goal and to creating balanced medication management systems.

Behavioral Health
We identify and address polypharmacy with the dual goals of improving patient outcomes and reducing the quantity of behavioral health medications used when possible.

Commercial Plans
We tailor our clinical call center services to meet the individual needs of our commercial health plan clients.

Correctional Health
Our team provides the inmate population in Massachusetts with evidence-based pharmaceutical care that meets national clinical guidelines — and contains costs.

Medicare/Medicaid
Our aggressive cost-containment strategies have helped MassHealth, the Massachusetts Medicaid program, cut its pharmacy budget in half.

Special Populations
Our specially-trained staff oversees the pharmaceutical care of medically fragile children receiving in-home nursing care through the Massachusetts Medicaid program.
