Tom FaganPharmacy Benefits Management Clinical Informatics Instructor
VETERANS HEALTH ADMINISTRATION
Learning Objectives
• Understand the Mission of Pharmacy Benefits Management • Understand the Background on Pharmacy Re-Engineering
Project (PRE) including (MOCHA) Medication Order Check Healthcare Application
• Understand the reason and goals for Benefits Realization assessment of PRE including MOCHA by OHI PE Team
• Understand the data sources, methodology and rationale used in assessment
• Understand initial assessment findings and recommendations
VETERANS HEALTH ADMINISTRATION
Mission of Pharmacy Benefits Management
• To improve the health status of veterans by encouraging the appropriate use of medications in a comprehensive medical care setting.
• Functions– Drug Benefit Design– Evidence-Based Formulary Management– Utilization Management – Staff Education– Patient Safety
VETERANS HEALTH ADMINISTRATION
Clinical Informatics
• Application of Information Technology to deliver Healthcare Services
VETERANS HEALTH ADMINISTRATION
(PRE) Pharmacy Re-engineering Background
• Began in 2002• Multiple Increments Project Management• Main Goal to Improve VistA Pharmacy Package
– Respond to Patient Safety Issues– Medication cost reduction– Improved workflow and process
VETERANS HEALTH ADMINISTRATION
PRE Increments
• First Iteration
Increment 1 – PRE Foundational Enhancement Increment 2 – Pharmacy Enterprise Customization System (PECS) Increment 3 – Medication Order Check Healthcare Application (MOCHA v1.0 ) (Non-Dosing) Increment 4 – Medication Order Check Healthcare Application (MOCHA v2.0 ) (Dosing) Increment 5 – Pharmacy Enterprise Customization System Enhancements Increment 6 – Enhanced Order Checks

MOCHA V1.0
• Medication Order Check Healthcare Application – MOCHA v1.0
• Rolled out during the summer of 2011• Delivers a valuable enhancement to medication order checks in
the Pharmacy and CPRS packages • Utilization of a clinical drug database vendor, First Databank (fdb)• Enhanced Therapeutic Classification (ETC) allows for multiple
classes per drug, thereby reducing the number of clinically inexact or inappropriate warnings
VETERANS HEALTH ADMINISTRATION
MOCHA V2.0
– MOCHA v2.0 (Dosing) Development• Introduces dosage order check functionality which will reduce medication
errors, adverse events, and potential deaths• Provides an extremely valuable tool to VA clinicians in CPRS, Inpatient
Pharmacy, and Outpatient Pharmacy• Version 2.0 consists of a maximum single dose check derived from the
patient’s age, weight, and body surface area (BSA)• Currently installed in six test site environments with a planned national
release of July 2012

Stated Benefits of PRE
• Increased Patient Safety • Increased Efficiency of Prescription and Order
Processing • Decreased Costs • Increased Satisfaction • Increased Regulatory Compliance
VETERANS HEALTH ADMINISTRATION
Goal for Assessment
• Office of Health Information (OHI) Product Effectiveness (PE) Benefits Realization (BR) Assessment
• One key question– Is VHA realizing the intended benefits from the PRE functionality, and
if not, what can be done to make needed improvements?
