Brief Summary:
Objective: Among patients discharged from the hospital with changes in maintenance prescription medication, how does experiencing a medication access gap compared to a no medication access gap impact the time to first unplanned healthcare encounter?
This is a retrospective, cohort study conducted at two hospital sites in rural Pennsylvania and New York State using encounter data from the electronic health record to analyze any patient discharged with medication changes from June 1, 2023 to May 31, 2024.

Detailed Description:
Background: Transitions of care are high-risk periods marked by frequent medication-related problems with up to 80% of discharged patients and 98% of older adults experiencing discrepancies in their medication regimens. These gaps, often due to delayed prescription refills or poor care coordination, contribute to unplanned healthcare encounters, increased costs, and strain on providers. Pharmacists can mitigate these risks by improving medication access and continuity.
