%X UNASSIGNED: Compass Rose™, a case management tool developed by Epic®, was designed to track various patient coordination tasks, outreaches, and outcomes. This report describes the implementation of Compass Rose™ within an internal health-system specialty pharmacy (HSSP) and changes in care coordination metrics before and after implementation. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study of its kind to discuss the implementation of Compass Rose™.
UNASSIGNED: The goals of this study were to describe the implementation process of Compass Rose™ at an internal HSSP and compare staff satisfaction before and after Compass Rose™ as the primary outcome.
UNASSIGNED: This was an Institutional Review Board exempt, retrospective cohort study conducted between June 2022 to December 2022 that assessed staff satisfaction, refill documentation time, prescription turnaround time, and patient satisfaction pre- and post- Compass Rose™ implementation through survey administration, observed time studies, and internal data reports. The process of Compass Rose™ implementation was also described and discussed.
UNASSIGNED: 24 specialty pharmacy staff members participated in the Compass Rose™ implementation survey. No statistically significant differences were observed in either staff satisfaction (3.96 ± 0.95 versus 3.70 ± 0.69, p = 0.29) or predicted versus actual challenge of implementation (3.67 ± 1.17 versus 3.09 ± 0.96, p = 0.064). There was no significant difference in refill documentation time pre- versus post- Compass Rose™ implementation (4.22 ± 3.15 minutes versus 4.10 ± 2.36 minutes, p = 0.82); however, there was a statistically significant increase in prescription turnaround time post implementation (2.59 ± 2.85 days versus 2.69 ± 2.35 days, p = 0.002).
UNASSIGNED: Compass Rose™ implementation had no significant impact on staff satisfaction, patient satisfaction, or overall refill documentation time. Prescription turnaround time increased, which could be due to significant workflow changes with Compass Rose™ or several other contributing factors such as increased prescription volume and training new staff during this period.Benefits of Compass Rose™ included standardization of workflow, ability to quantify staff performance and clinical impact, and increased transparency regarding care provided by the specialty pharmacy team.
