Continuing Education
Protecting Access to Oncology-Optimized Limited Distribution Drugs
Best Suited For: Pharmacist, Nurse, Pharmacy Technician, Nurse Practitioner, Physician Assistant
CE Credits: 0.75 hours
Activity Description
This activity is designed to educate oncology pharmacy teams on the critical role of Medically Integrated Pharmacies (MIPs) and the impact of Oncology Optimized Limited Distribution (OOLD) models on patient care, operational efficiency, and clinical outcomes. Participants will gain a clear understanding of how various distribution models affect medication access, therapy coordination, and practice sustainability. The program aims to close knowledge gaps related to operationalizing OOLD within practice workflows, particularly in the management of complex oral and combination oncology regimens. Ultimately, this education supports improved care coordination, increased internal capture rates, and enhanced patient-centered oncology treatment delivery.
