AB  - Pharmacists  are  a  vital  component  of  interdisciplinary  care  teams  aimed  to  treat  the  patient  more  holistically  and  in  a  manner  that  does  away  with  older,  paternalistic  models.  Newer  care  models  require  health  care  teams  to  effectively  collaborate  and  communicate  with  one  another  and  encourage  patient  engagement  in  their  own  disease  state  management.  These  teams  of  health  care  professionals  are  also  concerned  with  treating  populations,  particularly  underserved  populations  in  which  social  determinants  of  health  play  a  role  in  patient  outcomes.  Pharmacists  are  among  the  health  professionals  most  frequently  encountered  by  patients;  as  such,  rapidly  evolving  regulations  are  changing  throughout  the  United  States.  Many  pharmacists  are  involved  in  administering  immunizations,  furnishing  oral  contraceptive  and  travel  medications,  and/or  in  administration,  oversight,  and  counseling  for  use  of  medical  devices  and  point-of-care  testing  equipment.  With  expanded  scope  of  practice  in  many  states,  some  are  managing  health  conditions,  including  collecting  patient  health  information,  assessing,  planning,  educating,  implementing  health  care  plans,  and  following-up  with  patients  to  help  achieve  health  care  goals.  With  more  breakthroughs  in  technology,  software,  robotics,  and  pharmacogenomics,  pharmacists’  roles  will  continue  to  advance  at  an  accelerated  pace.
