To help reduce the risk of possible medication problems, the MTM program offers two types of clinical review of your medications:
- Targeted medication review: at least quarterly, we will review all your prescription medications and contact you, your caregiver, your pharmacist, and/or your provider if we detect a potential problem.
- Comprehensive medication review (CMR): at least once per year, we offer a free discussion and review of all your medications by a pharmacist or other health professional to help you use your medications safely. The CMR is provided to you confidentially via telephone. The CMR may also be provided in person or via telehealth. This review requires about 30 minutes of your time. Following the CMR, you will get a written summary of this call, which you can take with you when you talk with your doctors. This summary includes a:
- Recommended To-Do List (TDL): The TDL has steps you should take to help you get the best results from your medications.
- Personal Medication List (PML): The PML will help you keep track of your medications and how to use them the right way.
