AB Identifying  and  addressing  financial  barriers  is  an  important  intervention  which  can  facilitate  safe  and  effective  transitions  of  care.  When  optimizing  medication  therapy,  pharmacist  interventions  should  include  addressing  cost.  This  may  include  initiating  prior  authorizations,  selecting  cheaper  alternatives  when  available,  or  identifying  resources  to  supplement  the  cost  of  medications.  When  available,  collaboration  with  case  management  and  social  work  can  be  valuable  in  meeting  the  unique  and  individual  needs  of  the  patient.
