6 ways the MTM program benefits you

The MTM program is here to help you gain a better understanding of your medications and feel more confident taking them. You’ll work with a pharmacist who will provide support, answer your questions and help you stay healthy. Here’s what support and services you can look forward to. 

1. Get a personalized medication review

A pharmacist will look at all the medications you take. This includes: 

• Prescriptions

• Over-the-counter (OTC) drugs 

• Vitamins or supplements

They’ll explain why you take each one, how it helps your body and what side effects to watch for. You’ll have time to ask questions so you feel comfortable and informed. 

2. Talk through custom medication instructions

It’s very important you take all medications as directed by your pharmacist or primary care provider (PCP). After your review, you’ll get a list of all your medicines. It will explain detailed instructions, including: 

• Timing — when to take 

• Whether to take them with food 

• Dosage

• Other special directions 

3. Use a health plan "to-do list"

You may also get a “to-do list” from your pharmacist or health care provider. This list includes helpful tips, reminders and notes about things you may want to talk about with your PCP. It can guide you step-by-step and make it easier to follow your care plan. 

4. Talk through options and concerns

Your pharmacist will go over ways to get the best results from your medications. They can help you understand side effects, suggest safer ways to take your prescriptions and offer options if something isn’t working well for you. 

5. Find ways to save money

The pharmacist can also help you find ways to lower prescription drug costs. Some to ask about include: 

• Choosing a generic drug instead of name brand.  

• Checking for discounts. 

• Looking into alternative safe and cost-effective treatment options. Their goal is to help you get the care you need without overspending. 

6. Stay supported with regular follow-ups

The MTM program doesn’t end after one call. Every few months, the pharmacist will check in with you. They’ll see how your medications are working, talk about any changes to your conditions and treatment plan, and make sure you’re still getting the support you need. 

The MTM program is designed to help you understand your medications and stay safe. With useful reviews, easy-to-follow steps and support from both a pharmacist and your provider, you can feel confident that your treatment plan is tailored to your needs.
