Medication Therapy Management
The Medication Therapy Management (MTM) program can help you learn about your medications, prevent or address medication-related problems, decrease costs, and help you stick to your treatment plan.
In most cases, a pharmacist will reach out to you and ask if you are interested in learning more about your medications. They are asking because they want to help you. You can also request this service from your pharmacy.
The pharmacist may ask to schedule time with you to go over all of your medications, which includes any pills, creams, eye drops, herbal supplements or over the counter items. With this program, your pharmacist will get alerts and information about your medications and decide if you may need extra attention. They offer ways to help you with your medications and how to take them the right way. They will also work with your doctor and others to help address your needs and improve how you use your medications.
This service, and the pharmacist’s help and information, are part of being a CareSource member and are available at no cost to you.
MTM benefits:
- Improve safe use of medications
- Coordination with all your doctors and other caregivers
- Increases your knowledge of your medications and how to use them correctly
- Improves your overall health
We encourage you to talk with your pharmacist about your medications. This can help you get the best results from your medications.
