Abstract

Value-driven health care and team-based care are gaining momentum from policymakers, payers, and providers. An important facet to examine is the health care team, especially in outpatient care. Community pharmacy is a significant aspect of the patient's health experience and a valuable component of outpatient care. An in-depth look into how community pharmacy can participate in the outpatient care team is described. To function as a team, it is crucial to address collaboration among outpatient practices, while making it easier for patients to navigate the outpatient health system. Previously published characteristics, principles, and values of effective health care teams within primary care can aid in establishing teams across practice settings including community pharmacy.
