Delivering Medication Therapy Management Services in the Community: A National Certificate Training Program for Pharmacists

 

Delivering Medication Therapy Management Services in the Community is an innovative and interactive training program that explores the pharmacist’s role in providing MTM services to patients. Pharmacists have a tremendous opportunity to receive reimbursement for monitoring and improving medication use in patients with complex medication regimens. This practice-based activity teaches pharmacists the essential skills necessary to become a successful MTM practitioner. The certificate training program will enhance pharmacists’ clinical expertise in evaluating complicated medication regimens, identifying medication-related problems, and making recommendations to patients, caregivers, and health care professionals. Delivering Medication Therapy Management Services in the Community is conducted in three parts: self-study activity and pre-seminar exercise; live interactive seminar; post-seminar exercise. Completion of all three parts is required to obtain the certificate.
