If you’re on a drug plan and take medications for different medical conditions, you may be eligible to get services, at no cost to you, through our Medication Therapy Management (MTM) program. This program helps you and your doctor make sure that your medications are working to improve your health. Our pharmacist will give you a comprehensive review of all your medications and talk with you about:
• How to get the most benefit from the drugs you take
• Any concerns you have, like medication costs and drug reactions
• How best to take your medications
• Any questions or problems you have about your prescription and over-the-counter medication
You’ll get a written summary of this discussion, including an action plan that recommends what you can do to make the best use of your medications, with space for you to take notes or write down any follow-up questions. You’ll also get a personal medication list that will include all the medications you’re taking and why you take them.
It’s a good idea to schedule your medication review before your yearly wellness visit, so you can talk to your doctor about your action plan and medication list. Bring your action plan and medication list with you to your visit or anytime you talk with your doctors, pharmacists, and other health care providers. Also, take your medication list with you if you go to the hospital or emergency room.
If you take many medications for more than one chronic health condition, contact your drug plan to see if you're eligible for a Medication Therapy Management program.
