Primary Investigators:
Jennifer Bacci, PharmD, MPH, BCACP, Assistant Professor
Peggy Odegard, BSPharm, PharmD, CDE, Professor
Project Goal:
To compare the impact of usual care and a community pharmacist-led model of initiating and monitoring statin therapy on the change in
- percent of pharmacy population with diabetes initiated on a statin therapy, and,
- patient adherence and persistence to statin therapy
Sponsorship:
This research is supported by a grant from the National Association of Chain Drug Stores Foundation.

Recent projects
Project VACCINATE
expand
Primary Investigators:
Jennifer Bacci, PharmD, MPH, BCACP, Assistant Professor
Peggy Odegard, BSPharm, PharmD, CDE, Professor
Project Goals
- Improve influenza, pneumococcal, pertussis, and herpes zoster immunization rates in adults
- Implement innovative methods for sharing immunization information across appropriate healthcare partners
- Align incentives between payers and pharmacies to identify an effective value-based payment model
- Improve vaccine preparedness planning among the state health department and community pharmacies
Important Findings
The project found a 14% increase in the number of adults immunizations in a one year periodas a result of the pharmacist outreach and support.
Sponsorship:
This project was supported by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the National Association of Chain Drug Stores (NACDS). This project is part of a larger initiative with three (3) sub-awardees spanning four (4) states to increase adult immunizations. The demonstration projects are supported by Grant Federal Award Identification Number, IH23IP000985, for $800,000 funded by the CDC. NACDS contributed an additional $300,000 to execute the demonstration projects. Given this contribution, each sub-awardee received approximately 67 percent ($200,000) of its funding from the CDC and approximately 33 percent ($100,000) from NACDS to implement its demonstration project. A total of $1.1 million will be used to complete CDC project work, with 73 percent from the CDC and 27 percent from NACDS.
