SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Proposed Project
Pharmacy Survey on Patient Safety
Culture Comparative Database
In 1999, the Institute of Medicine
called for health care organizations to
develop a ‘‘culture of safety’’ such that
their workforce and processes focus on
improving the reliability and safety of
care for patients (IOM, 1999; To Err is
Human: Building a Safer Health
System). To respond to the need for
tools to assess patient safety culture in
health care, AHRQ developed and pilot
tested the Pharmacy Survey on Patient
Safety Culture with OMB approval
(OMB NO. 0935–0183; Approved 08/12/
2011). The survey is designed to enable
pharmacies to assess staff opinions
about patient and medication safety and
quality-assurance issues, and includes
36 items that measure 11 dimensions of
patient safety culture. AHRQ made the
survey publicly available along with a
Survey User’s Guide and other toolkit
materials in October 2012 on the AHRQ
Web site.
The AHRQ Pharmacy Survey on
Patient Safety Culture (Pharmacy SOPS)
Comparative Database consists of data
from the AHRQ Pharmacy Survey on
Patient Safety Culture. Pharmacies in
the U.S. are asked to voluntarily submit
data from the survey to AHRQ, through
its contractor, Westat. The Pharmacy
SOPS Database is modeled after three
other SOPS databases: Hospital SOPS
[OMB NO. 0935–0162; Approved 05/04/
2010]; Medical Office SOPS [OMB NO.
0935–0196; Approved 06/12/12]; and
Nursing Home SOPS [OMB NO. 0935–
0195; Approved 06/12/12] that were
originally developed by AHRQ in
response to requests from hospitals,
medical offices, and nursing homes
interested in knowing how their patient
safety culture survey results compare to
those of other similar health care
organizations.
PO 00000
Frm 00043
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Rationale for the information
collection. The Pharmacy SOPS survey
and the Pharmacy SOPS Comparative
Database will support AHRQ’s goals of
promoting improvements in the quality
and safety of health care in pharmacy
settings. The survey, toolkit materials,
and comparative database results are all
made publicly available on AHRQ’s
Web site. Technical assistance is
provided by AHRQ through its
contractor at no charge to pharmacies, to
facilitate the use of these materials for
pharmacy patient safety and quality
improvement.
The goal of this project is to create the
Pharmacy SOPS Comparative Database.
This database will:
(1) Allow pharmacies to compare
their patient safety culture survey
results with those of other pharmacies,
(2) Provide data to pharmacies to
facilitate internal assessment and
learning in the patient safety
improvement process, and
(3) Provide supplemental information
to help pharmacies identify their
strengths and areas with potential for
improvement in patient safety culture.
This study is being conducted by
AHRQ through its contractor, WESTAT,
pursuant to AHRQ’s statutory authority
to conduct and support research on
healthcare and on systems for the
delivery of such care, including
activities with respect to the quality,
effectiveness, efficiency,
appropriateness and value of healthcare
services and with respect to quality
measurement and improvement. 42
U.S.C. 299a(a)(1) and (2).
Method of Collection
To achieve these goals the following
data collections will be implemented:
(1) Registration Form—The point-ofcontact (POC), the pharmacy manager or
a survey participating organization,
completes a number of data submission
steps and forms, beginning with
completion of an online Registration
Form. The purpose of this form is to
collect basic demographic information
about the pharmacy and initiate the
registration process.
(2) Pharmacy Background
Characteristics Form—The purpose of
this form, completed by the pharmacy
manager or a participating organization,
is to collect background characteristics
of the pharmacy. This information will
be used to analyze data collected with
the Pharmacy SOPS survey.
(3) Data Use Agreement—The purpose
of the data use agreement, completed by
the pharmacy manager or participating
organization is to state how data
submitted by pharmacies will be used
and provide confidentiality assurances.
