The effectiveness of pharmacist-provided telephonic medication therapy management on emergency department utilization in home health patients.
This article's objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of a telephonic medication therapy management (MTM) service on reducing emergency department utilization within a Medicare-insured home health population. The authors found that this pharmacist-delivered telephonic medication therapy management program did not decrease emergency department utilization overall but may further reduce the such risk among patients who are at lower risk of utilization.
