QCompass QS/1

In this week’s update on the COVID-19 vaccination update, we discuss the latest from the CDC, week 3 of the Federal Retail Pharmacy Partnership and Reporting requirements, and how pharmacies should begin to clean up patient demographics to help for easier reporting.

Wintry weather across most of the country is impacting the delivery of COVID-19 vaccines to pharmacies, the National Governors Association is sending a letter to federal leaders, and the soft rollout of the Federal Retail Pharmacy Partnership are just a few of the topics in this week's RedSail Technologies' COVID-19 vaccination update.

QS/1 will release Service Pack 19.1.34 for NRx soon. It includes the new RedSail Technologies Patient Chart. Zach Princell, Pharm.D. and Assistant Product Manager, tells us more on how the new patient chart can help pharmacies as well as a few other of the new features included in the enhancements in the new service pack.

In this week's COVID-19 vaccination update, we discuss reporting requirements that have been updated for several states, who will control decisions in the coming vaccine phases, and how pharmacies can help senior citizens navigate technology to sign-up for the COVID-19 vaccination registration.

Pharmacies and LTC operations continue to tackle challenges as the first phases of the CDC COVID-19 vaccine ramp up. This week, David Pope, Pharm.D., chief innovation officer for OmniSYS and Ed Vess, R.Ph. RedSail Technologies' director of professional pharmacy affairs talk about what pharmacists need to do to get ready for implementation of the next phase as well as educating patients about potential vaccine scams that are already being reported.
