Medication risk mitigation system and method

A method for mitigating medication risk, comprising:

• A network linked computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable medium having program instructions stored in a memory device, the instructions executable by a processor to direct the performance of operations for the management of a regimen for a patient's use of prescribed medication, the program instructions comprising the steps of:
• initializing a prospective intervention comprising the steps of:
• receiving at least one medication input from a prescriber for the patient into the memory device;
• comparing the at least one medication input for the patient to at least one intrinsic component data source and/or extrinsic component data source;
• sending a first message to the prescriber through the network linked computer program if the at least one medication input is matched with at least one contraindication based on the comparison between the at least one medication input and the at least one intrinsic component data source and/or extrinsic component data source;
• editing the at least one medication input with any modifications the prescriber may make based on the contraindication, thereby creating one or more prescribed medications;
• initializing a concurrent intervention comprising the steps of:
• sending a second message to a pharmacist through the network linked computer program comprising the one or more prescribed medications;
• comparing the one or more prescribed medications for the patient to the at least one intrinsic component data source and/or extrinsic component data source;
• sending a third message to the prescriber through the network linked computer program if at least one of the one or more prescribed medications is matched with at least one contraindication based on the comparison between the one or more prescribed medications and the at least one intrinsic component data source and/or extrinsic component data source;
• editing the one or more prescribed medications with any modifications the prescriber may make based on the contraindication, thereby creating one or more revised prescribed medications;
• initializing a retrospective intervention comprising the steps of:
• recognizing a triggering event;
• comparing the one or more prescribed medications and/or revised prescribed medications for a patient to the at least one intrinsic component data source and/or extrinsic component data source;
• sending a fourth message though the networked linked computer program to the prescriber if at least one of the one or more prescribed medications or revised prescribed medications is matched with at least one contraindication based on the comparison between the one or more prescribed medications or revised prescribed medications and the at least one intrinsic component data source and/or extrinsic component data source;
• and
• editing the one or more prescribed medications or revised prescribed medications with any modifications the prescriber may make based on the contraindication, thereby creating one or more revised prescribed medications;
• and
• the pharmacist dispensing the one or more prescribed medications or the one or more revised prescribed medications after the concurrent intervention and/or the retrospective intervention.
