DOAC stewardship is an essential need. In a recent paper, experts have estimated between 2016-2020 there were 1.2 million emergency room visits due to oral anticoagulant-related bleeding. To mitigate risks associated with DOACs, different management models have been constructed and established across institutions and clinics worldwide. Join experts as they discuss a patient-focused DOAC model similar to warfarin management at Brigham & Women’s Hospital as well as a population health model used across VHA. A question-and-answer panel will address the value of DOAC oversight by anticoagulation services.
