Development of a Pharmacy Business (MTM)
Chelsea ShipmanSouhanda SefinWesley Singleton
What Is Medication Therapy Management?
• MTM services, or programs, are patient care services that were established by the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003.
• Creating and maintaining a successful MTM practice necessitates a culture change where staff training, workflows, and processes revolve around delivery of a service as opposed to delivery of a product such as prescription medications.
Core Elements of an MTM Service Model in Pharmacy
Practice The MTM service model in pharmacy practice includes the following five core elements: • Medication therapy review (MTR) • Personal medication record (PMR)• Medication-related action plan (MAP)• Intervention and/or referral• Documentation and follow-up
Medication Therapy Review• The medication therapy review (MTR) is a systematic process of collecting
patient-specific information, assessing medication therapies to identify medication-related problems, developing a prioritized list of medication-related problems, and creating a plan to resolve them.
Personal Medication Record• The personal medication record (PMR) is a comprehensive record of the
patient’s medications (prescription and nonprescription medications, herbal products, and other dietary supplements).
Medication-Related Action Plan• The medication-related action plan (MAP) is a patient-centric
document containing a list of actions for the patient to use in tracking progress for self-management.
Intervention and/or Referral• The pharmacist provides consultative services and intervenes to
address medication-related problems; when necessary, the pharmacist refers the patient to a physician or other healthcare professional.
Documentation and Follow-upMTM services are documented in a consistent manner, and a follow-up
MTM visit is scheduled based on the patient’s medication-related needs, or the patient is transitioned from one care setting to another.
Current Atmosphere of MTM Services
Quality Measures• Though current pharmacy practice models do involve provision of some patient care
services, the majority are tied to the product. • Counseling on a medication the patient is picking up is a prime example of this, as
the patient may view receiving the product as the primary goal of visiting the pharmacy and counseling as an adjunctive service.
• Product centered workflows and behaviors create a discrepancy between where the profession wants to go (i.e. service centered) and where pharmacy practice remains rooted.
Legislation in MTM Services• The Medicare Drug Benefit is commonly known as Medicare Part D. The Centers for Medicare and
Medicaid Services (CMS) require plan sponsors, such as prescription drug benefit managers or Medicare Advantage organizations, to develop and administer MTM programs.
• Requirements for Medication Therapy Management Programs (MTMP): Under 423.153(d), a Part D sponsor must have established a MTM program that:• Ensures optimum therapeutic outcomes for targeted beneficiaries through improved medication use• Reduces the risk of adverse events• Is developed in cooperation with licensed and practicing pharmacists and physicians• Describes the resources and time required to implement the program if using outside personnel and
establishes the fees for pharmacists or others• May be furnished by pharmacists or other qualified providers• May distinguish between services in ambulatory and institutional settings• Is coordinated with any care management plan established for a targeted individual under a chronic care
improvement program (CCIP)
PayersMedicare Part D payers are required to cover MTM services for eligible patients. After identifying and contracting with Medicare Part D plans, a consultation with each payer should be done to determine how MTM services should be billed. The most common scenarios for provision of Medicare Part D MTM services are the following: • The payer (Medicare Part D plan) uses its own employee pharmacists to
provide MTM and does not contract for the services.• The payer contracts with pharmacies or individual pharmacists to provide the
services.

• Secondary Information• Literature articles• Continuing education programs• Research databases
How large is this problem, and what are the trends?
• Primary Research• Secondary Research
• Patient trends • Incidences• Medical outcomes• Disease prevalence or complications
How well are the patient needs currently being
addressed?• Physicians• Nurses• Pharmacists• Pharmacy benefit management
