Medication management has a great impact on patient outcomes including reduction of emergency department visits, decreases of serious drug events, reduction of healthcare expenditures, and decreases of medication related problems. Medication management may be completed across a variety of settings by the interprofessional team. Participate in this module to learn about medication review, medication therapy management (MTM), and comprehensive medication management (CMM). This module will enable you to perform a comprehensive assessment of medication therapy and develop strategies for addressing medication related problems.

This learning module, created by Laura Meyer-Junco and Michael Koronkowski, discusses medication management. By the end of the module, learners should be able to: (1) define medication management and describe its impact patient outcomes; (2) identify information that should be collected from patients and caregivers in order to perform a comprehensive assessment of medication therapy; (3) describe common medication-related problems (MRPs) in the older adult population and discuss strategies for addressing MRPs; and (4) integrate a systematic approach to medication management. Registration is required to access the material but there is no charge.
