Spotting serious diagnoses among common neurological conditions

Migraines and bipolar disorder are treated with some of the same multi-use drugs. So are restless leg syndrome and Parkinson’s disease. Accurately assessing mortality risk in such cases means knowing more than what drug was prescribed—it also means knowing why. In this webinar, you’ll learn how to use the enhanced information in Prescription Data, such as prescriber specialty or fill quantity, as well as Medical Data, to instantly differentiate between common, benign neurological conditions and a range of more serious concerns including mental health and even cardiac issues. Don’t miss those red flags.

Topics covered

• Summaries of migraine, restless leg syndrome (RLS), Parkinson’s disease, and their available treatment options
• Multi-use drugs prescribed for common neurological diagnoses (such as migraines and RLS) that are also prescribed for red-flag conditions such as bipolar disorder, Parkinson’s disease, epilepsy, and substance use disorder
• Using Prescription Data, Medical Data, and the Irix Rules Engine to instantly clarify which condition is indicated by the available data
• Using updated Prescription Data with Medical Data to stratify risks for patients with serious conditions like diabetes or heart failure

Who should attend
