S3E1 - Anthony P. Morreale, PharmD, MBA, BPCS, CPEL, FASHP | Post-Scrip: The ASPL Pharmacy Law Podcast

American Society for Pharmacy Law (ASPL) Season 3 Episode 1

In this episode of Post-Scrip, Henry introduces Anthony P. Morreale, PharmD, MBA, BPCS, CPEL, FASHP. They discuss the upcoming "Pharmacogenomic Explosion: Legal and Liability Implications". 

 This presentation will focus on the rapid advancement of the science and its impact on prescribing and managing drug therapy and the consequences of ignoring pharmacogenomic evidence that is now present in well over 300 FDA approved medication prescribing information documents.

Integration of pharmacogenomic (PGx) testing into clinical practice has accelerated in select practice areas, moving it from a novelty to a standard part of patient care. That’s generally a good thing as it has proven in those areas to improve clinical outcomes. However, as PGx testing becomes a standard of care, failure to implement it could lead to instances where care may not be optimized, raising potential malpractice issues. There are a growing number of pharmacogenomic based legal cases that have been settled or resulted in significant financial judgments that deserve focus for all in the pharmacy and legal professions.
