Notification-fatigue is real, Cureatr alerts are informative and easy-to-access, without being in your face.
First developed in 1991 by Mark Beers, MD, the criteria is a list of overused and potentially unsafe drugs for seniors that can be checked against when they are prescribed a new medicine.
As Co-Chair of the AGS Beers Criteria® Panel, Michael Steinman, MD stated, “This tool works best as a starting point for a discussion—one guided by personal needs and priorities as we age.” Read more from AGS here.
Now you can find that starting point right inside Meds 360° with a "High Risk Medication" purple alert, allowing for a more efficient process for providers, and a higher quality of care for patients.
