Medication Therapy Management

What is Medication Therapy Management?

Medication Therapy Management (MTM) is a comprehensive service designed to optimize therapeutic outcomes by providing medication reviews, developing action plans, implementing interventions, monitoring results, and documenting all activities. This structured program, often covered by Medicare Part D plans, involves pharmacists working directly with patients to ensure medications are appropriate, effective, safe, and used correctly. MTM services include comprehensive medication reviews, personal medication records, medication action plans, intervention and referral services, and follow-up documentation.

Why medication therapy management matters

  • Optimizes medication use: Ensures each medication is necessary, effective, and properly dosed
  • Identifies problems early: Detects drug interactions, side effects, and adherence issues
  • Empowers patients: Provides education and tools for better medication self-management
