PHAR 7128 Introduction to Medication Therapy Management

Introduction to MTM: This elective course introduces the student to the concept and application of medication therapy management (MTM) and the pharmacist’s patient care process (PPCP). The course is based on the profession’s accepted and standardized approach to direct patient care (PPCP). The student is taught the principles of MTM using the American Pharmacists Association (APhA) Delivering Medication Therapy Management Services Certificate course. Course instruction is delivered using mini-topic discussions, applications, cases, and hands-on experience with MTM web-based platforms. The course is intended to prepare student pharmacists to transition directly into the practice of MTM during their advanced practice pharmacy experiences (APPEs). Upon successful completion of this course, students will obtain their APhA Medication Therapy Management Services certification.
