Idea Status:
Provide additional education to providers about formulary medications and non-formulary restrictions. Increased support of medical center upper management and publicization of formulary enforcement (via screen savers, posters, etc) could increase use of formulary medications and decrease medication cost. More publicized medical center support could enpower pharmacy to enforce the formulary. Also, increased use of automatic substituations for classes such as statins, ACEi and ARBs could also help. Possibly increased transperency of the cost/charge of medication would also help with medication selection choices by providers
