The Role of the Pharmacist and Pharmacogenomics in the Care of Seriously Ill Patients

Participants will undergo pharmacogenomics testing and will be asked to provide a one-time buccal scraping. These results will be utilized for clinical treatment decisions.

Participants will have their medical information, including patient demographics, problem list, medication list, allergies, and relevant lab work reviewed by a One Point pharmacist. The pharmacist will work with the Palliative Medicine team to make medication related recommendations to improve individual patient care. The pharmacist will call the patient roughly 48 hours following their outpatient consultation or hospital discharge to review the medication list and address any medication-related questions. The pharmacy will send refill reminders to the patients.
