Favorite Audit Tip
Double check the quantity field on your hardcopies and be sure the units of measure are clearly labeled (e.g. mL, box, pen); call the prescriber’s office for clarification if necessary and be sure to document appropriately.

After graduating from UW-Madison’s School of Pharmacy with my PharmD, I spent my first eight years at an independent pharmacy dividing my time between both retail and long-term care. I fell in love with the independent pharmacy world and joined the PAAS team to help independents not only survive, but thrive.

I enjoy assisting pharmacy staff both pre- and post-audit and enjoy providing them with knowledge and tools to decrease audit risk going forward. I write articles for Third-Party Newsline each month and answer member questions daily. I look forward to building professional relationships with each of our members and assisting you with your next audit.
