Our MTM program is designed to help both physicians or clinics, and your patients by offering these benefits:

• Benefits of MTM for Prescribers
  • More efficient patient care (i.e., the pharmacist as the medication expert can identify and resolve medication-related problems effectively)
  • More comprehensive patient follow-up
  • Improved continuity of care
  • Minimization of medication errors, adverse effects, and adverse drug-drug interactions
  • Increased adherence to therapy
  • Enhanced medication reconciliation
  • Reduced duplication of therapy (due to polypharmacy)
• Safer and more effective medication use. We believe that educating patients on appropriate medication use can improve their adherence, help them reach and maintain their therapeutic goals and prevent medication errors. To ensure medication effectiveness, our pharmacists will conduct follow-up phone calls to monitor a patient’s symptoms and adherence with the medication regimen.

• Selection of the most therapeutic and cost-effective medications. We offer patient counseling services that can assist in selecting the most cost-effective and clinically appropriate generic or brand name medications. If we find a medication that is more cost effective than the patient’s current medication, our pharmacists will consult you and receive your authorization before any medication changes occur.

• Improved coordination of care. Many patients see multiple providers for various health conditions, which can lead to duplicate therapies or harmful medication interactions. As part of the medication review, we will provide patients with a personal medication list and a medication action plan that explains the safest and most effective use of their medications. We will instruct patients to bring these records to their visits with you and other prescribers to provide you with the patient’s full medication history.

• Documentation of patient clinical situations. Our pharmacists carefully document all MTM services provided to eligible patients. We will contact you if a patient’s clinical situation requires your attention, and any changes made to a prescription medication will only be made with your prior authorization.
