Pharmacoinformatics-enabled Interventions Improved Care Coordination and Identified Pharmacy-Related Safety Issues in a Multicultural Medicare Population.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundCompared to White populations, multicultural older adults experience more gaps in preventive care (e.g., vaccinations, screenings, chronic condition monitoring), social determinants of health barriers (e.g., access to care, language, transportation), and disparities and inequities (e.g., comorbidities, disease burden, and health care costs).
objectivesThis study aims to describe an informatics-based approach used to execute and evaluate results of a member-centric, pharmacoinformatics-informed engagement program to deliver culturally tailored microinterventions to close medication-related gaps in care utilizing multidisciplinary care coordination that leverages the expanded role of the pharmacist. The operational framework will be described, and the influence of the medication use processes will be reported in a multicultural Medicare Advantage cohort.
methodsA pharmacoinformatics framework was leveraged to conduct a retrospective, observational cohort analysis of the program. Claims data were used to evaluate the influence of medication use process microinterventions from a large Medicare Advantage cohort of members who self-identify as Black and/or Hispanic, and have type 2 diabetes mellitus and/or hypertension, and meet eligibility criteria for multidisciplinary (e.g., nursing and pharmacy) care management (CM) and received pharmacy referral from January 1, 2022, through September 30, 2023.
resultsA total of 3,265 Medicare Advantage members (78.3% Black and 21.7% Hispanic) received CM and pharmacy referral. Pharmacovigilance reviews conducted during this timeframe identified 258 acute events that escalated member CM. Provider outreach (
conclusionThe application of pharmacoinformatics by a payor-led multicultural clinical program demonstrated quality improvements in Medicare Advantage member identification including risk stratification, timely outreach for pharmacy-related safety issues, and improved efficiency of multidisciplinary care coordination involving medication use process workflows.
