Each year, medication-related problems account for an estimated
1.5 million preventable adverse events that cost the U.S. health
insurance industry approximately $177 billion. Medications have
such a significant impact on the cost and quality of care that
Medication Therapy Management (MTM) has become a critical component
of member-centric care management models.
Join MEDecision Chief Medical Officer Andrew Schuyler, M.D., and
Product Marketing Director Nancy Bucceri, for a complimentary
webinar examining MTM, the technologies required to successfully
implement it and how health plans are the single entity best
positioned to facilitate improved outcomes with MTM tools and
programs. The session will discuss how MEDecision's solutions are
ideal for MTM because of their ability to gather comprehensive data
from disparate sources and transform it into actionable information
that can then be delivered to the proper source at the right time
to optimize clinical outcomes.
This webinar will reinforce the need for health plans to deliver
MTM programs and answer the following questions:
- What is MTM and why is it important?
- Who drives MTM programs today?
- What is the financial impact of MTM programs to health
plans?
- How does the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act's
Interim Final Rule on Medical Loss Ratio classify MTM
services?
- What are the information technology requirements of an MTM
program?
- What is MEDecision's approach to supporting MTM?
