Congratulations to Jenny Loucks on her appointment to the Kansas Board of Pharmacy's Collaborate Drug Therapy Management (CDTM) Advisory Committee

Congratulations to KCHP member Jenny Loucks on her recent appointment to the Kansas Board of Pharmacy's Collaborate Drug Therapy Management (CDTM) Advisory Committee. Jenny is Pharmacy Clinical Coordinator for Ambulatory Services and PGY-2 Ambulatory Care Residency Program Director at The University of Kansas Health-System. We're excited to have her represent health-system pharmacy on the CDTM Advisory Committee. This committee is a seven member committee appointed for the purpose of promoting consistent regulation and to enhance coordination among such boards with jurisdiction over licensees involved in collaborative drug therapy management. Jenny has also been a part of the newly created KCHP Section of Ambulatory Care Practitioners. This is a group of about 10 ambulatory care pharmacists and residents that practice across the state in different clinics and settings. Their mission is to improve patient care and patient health outcomes in the state of Kansas by advancing and supporting the professional practice of pharmacists who are medication-use specialists, patient-care providers, and operational specialists in ambulatory care settings. Our vision is that every patient in the state of Kansas can receive care needed from an ambulatory care pharmacist as part of their healthcare team. If you are interested in participating in this section, contact Katie Wilson, KCHP District 3 Director at marwilson@saint-lukes.org .
