Abstract

PurposeTo evaluate the impact of an informational presentation on acquisition cost-awareness and likelihood to consider acquisition costs for post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) medications among military anesthesia providers. DesignA descriptive, longitudinal survey was conducted between March 9, 2020, and April 3, 2020. MethodsMilitary anesthesia providers (n = 12) estimated the institutional acquisition costs of 9 PONV-related medications and rated their likelihood to consider costs before and after an informational presentation. FindingsNine paired surveys were completed and returned. After an informational presentation, providers significantly improved estimation accuracy for 4 medications and significantly increased the likelihood to consider costs. ConclusionsA survey evaluation highlighted deficiencies in acquisition cost-awareness and likelihood to consider acquisition costs for PONV medications among military anesthesia providers that improved after an informational presentation.
