First seen Mar 10, 2026 · Last updated Jun 19, 2026 · Updated 13 times
Summary
This study looks at whether giving pharmacists extra education plus monthly feedback on their performance helps them adjust heart failure medications more often than just education alone. About 400 pharmacists across 22 VA sites will take part. The goal is to see if simple changes in how information is shared can improve care for veterans with heart failure.
