AIM: To investigate provider utilization of pharmacist support in the delivery of pharmacogenetic testing in a primary care setting. METHODS: Two primary care clinics within Duke University Health System participated in the study between December 2012 and July 2013. One clinic was provided with an in-house pharmacist and the second clinic had an on-call pharmacist. RESULTS: Providers in the in-house pharmacist arm consulted with the pharmacist for 13 of 15 cases, or about one of every four patients tested compared with one of every 7.5 patients in the on-call pharmacist arm. A total of 63 tests were ordered, 48 by providers in the pharmacist-in-house arm. CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that the availability of an in-house pharmacist increases the likelihood of pharmacogenetic test utilization.
