Gleeson LL, Clyne B, Barlow JW, et al. Medication safety incidents associated with the remote delivery of primary care: a rapid review. Int J Pharm Pract. 2023;30(6):495-506. doi:10.1093/ijpp/riac087.
Remote delivery of care, such as telehealth and e-prescribing, increased sharply at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. This rapid review was conducted to determine the types and frequency of medication safety incidents associated with remote delivery of primary care prior to the pandemic. Fifteen articles were identified covering medication safety and e-prescribing; none of these studies associated medication safety and telehealth.
