Abstract
Collaboration of physicians and pharmacists is very important in providing treatment to patients. Collaboration includes an exchange of views or ideas that give perspective to all collaborators. In order to make collaborative relationship optimal, all members of the different professions should have a desire to cooperate. Pharmacists and physicians should plan and practice as colleagues, work interdependence within the limits of the scope of practice with a variety of values and knowledge. The role of director in cooperation between doctor and pharmacist takes decision‑making which refers to treatment of patients to be decided together between health professionals (physician and pharmacist). The study was a quasi‑ experimental design with a pre‑test‑post‑test control group design, using paired t‑test analysis. The study was conducted from October 2012 until February 2013. The paired t-test results showed that the variable of teamwork effectiveness in M. M. Dunda Hospital increased significantly (p=0.038), which means that the three‑party (physician‑pharmacist‑director) collaboration model may increase teamwork effectiveness. Three‑party collaboration model can improve physician‑pharmacist relationship in the hospital. Leadership has a positive and significant effect on employees’ organizational commitment. Director can be an inspiration in the work and determine the direction and goals of the organization. Therefore, the three‑party (physician‑pharmacist‑director) collaboration model can improve the quality of the relationship between the two professions, physician and pharmacist.
