Additionally, they are responsible for counseling and educating elderly hospice patients and their families in clear and precise ways. What sets the hospice pharmacists apart is that their primary goals are palliative care and long-term pain management without dealing with the underlying cause. Therefore, a big challenge to patient medication counseling is the patients' fear of addiction. Generally, these pharmacists see sub-acute and long term care patients versus patients that cycle in and out of hospital settings. This affects their patient-centered care plan as the duration of treatment is significantly longer. Because these patients are so ill, they are often on heavy doses of complicated medication regimens. This raises the possibility of harmful medication interactions. Ultimately, they must ensure that their care plans focus on patient comfort, respect, and dignity for the entire duration of treatment.

(Managed Care Pharmacist).

Pharmacists who work within the managed care area of a chain closely interact with those in clinical services in developing compliance programs and other professional services which can be marketed to insurance companies, so the pharmacist can have a more direct impact on patient care. As one pharmacist put it, "we don't get involved in all the nuances of different insurance companies, in effect, we are the insurance company." These pharmacists work directly with patients, while staying in continuous contact with their providers, to keep the patients within the therapeutic "international normalized ratio" or "INR" goal. Many managed care pharmacies incorporate aspects of both chain and hospital pharmacies. Within the clinics arena, the pharmacist generally reviews both lab work and progress notes from the previous day, contacts the patient when additional information is needed, and makes some therapy decisions while in communication with the provider. Additionally, the pharmacist will assist in maintenance of the electronic patient database, answer patient calls into the clinic, and occasionally see new patients initially in a class setting. The daily responsibilities of a pharmacist working in a managed care pharmacy vary.
