The Educating Pharmacy Students and Pharmacists to Improve Quality program: Tool for pharmacy practice

Gauging the current state of pharmacy quality or the extent to which intended improvements have an impact is not possible unless quality is measured. Tools for quality measurement from the EPIQ program can be used to improve pharmacist understanding of quality measurement and reporting, to interpret quality reports, and ultimately to make changes that can improve quality in pharmacy practice. Pharmacists are encouraged to use the tool described in the current work to interpret quality reports.
