CYBER-STAFFING is Pharmacy & Therapeutics Consulting's exciting and unique staffing service. This service is provided in essentially the same way as our after hours order review product except CYBER-STAFFING is to augment your clinical pharmacist staff WHILE THE PHARMACY IS OPEN.

We can set up CYBER-STAFFING to cover planned or un-planned periods of short staffing due to open positions, leave of absence, vacations, and sick call. CYBER-STAFFING should also be considered for those predictable times of peak work volume.

Pharmacy & Therapeutics Consulting's CYBER-STAFFING service ensures that new or changed medication orders are reviewed for appropriateness by a qualified clinical pharmacist in a timely manner even during times of short staffing or peak work volumes.

Our goal is to provide identical clinical screening and other services (except actual dispensing) as when your pharmacists process medication orders resulting in continuity of care while achieving significant cost savings when compared to traditional temp staffing services.

Typically CYBER-STAFFING is set up to seamlessly work with your current computerized medication order processing system via secure Internet communication tools. This is made possible using highly innovative communication technologies coordinated by our partner and affiliate The Center for Drug Safety, Inc. (CDS). CDS has designed a medication management system with full MICROMEDEX clinical screening and drug information resources that is a true application service provider (ASP). It is 100% server side requiring no added set up on your side. Further, easy and real time communication between systems can be easily set up.

With this unique communication tool our pharmacists can be trained to review medication orders from multiple facilities using one system. Differences among the various hospital systems are handled by the communication tool resulting in a medication order review process that is transparent to the end users at both P&TC and your facility. This innovative method uses the Internet in a safe and secure manner allowing our pharmacists to work from home thereby further reducing costs. (Alternatively we can set up a system to process your manual medication orders with full MICROMEDEX clinical screening or remotely access your facilities automated systems in a more traditional fashion using older communication technologies)

Our pharmacists will be trained with documentation of competency in your organization's clinical pharmacy programs, as are your pharmacists. This may include initiatives such as dosing protocols, IV to PO conversion, therapeutic interchange protocols, laboratory monitoring, dosing adjustments based on renal clearance and other pharmacy based clinical services. Additionally, our pharmacists would have the ability to utilize your automated products such as CPOE pending order lists, computerized order entry, interfacing with the laboratory system to evaluate pertinent values, clinical documentation tools, etc. via our innovative communication technologies.

Our goal is having the medication ordering system work exactly the same as when your pharmacists process medication orders. This entire process will be transparent to the physicians, nurses, and other health care professionals who rely on pharmacist based clinical services.

Pharmacy &Therapeutic Consulting, Inc. and The Center for Drug Safety, Inc. have developed a truly remarkable, innovative, secure, cost effective process that you should evaluate if you are planning to outsource staffing.

How do we save you money?

Service rates are determined by the estimated amount of actual work time required to provide this service vs. the number of hours covered. Typically this saves up to 50% of the cost of an on-site pharmacist. We are prepared to provide any coverage needed to include 24/7/365.

CALCULATOR:

	Enter the number of hours of coverage that will be required per month.
	Does the number above include 3rd shift (11:30PM-7:00AM) coverage? If yes how many shifts per month?
	Enter the number of hours of actual work required based on the usual number of admissions, orders that need to be reviewed/processed, work related to clinical programs and other documentation required. Base this on how long it would take your pharmacists to do this work.
	Enter the total number orders processed each month at your facility. This figure must include all orders including those written during regular business hours.
	Optional: By default our system assumes $75.00 as the per hour cost of a temp service providing pharmacists. If you like you can increase the accuracy of the results by entering your actual temp service per hour cost. Remember to include the cost of benefits where applicable and shift differential.
