Medication Management

Medication Management is a Health Cloud add-on product that helps providers and care coordinators manage the medication regimen of their patients, helping to improve patient safety and reduce healthcare costs.

You must set up and configure Medication Review before working with the Medication Management add-on.

Note

With Medication Management, your users can perform medication reconciliation and medication therapy review to improve care quality, safety, and patient experience.

Medication Reconciliation helps providers and care coordinators reconcile their patients’ medications, stay informed about any potential drug-to-drug interactions, and add relevant recommendations during transitions of care.
Medication Therapy Management helps healthcare providers and pharmacists to optimize a patient’s medication regimen for the best possible therapeutic outcomes and to prevent expensive drug-related problems. Medication therapy reviews are either comprehensive or targeted.

Medication Reconciliation
Medication reconciliation is a comprehensive evaluation of a patient’s medication regimen achieved by comparing the patient’s current and previous medication lists. The process helps to ensure health benefits and safety by identifying if the patient is taking new medications, using non-prescription drugs, or has changed previous medications.

Medication Therapy Management offers a range of services to help patients optimize their medication regimen for the best possible therapeutic outcomes, reduced medication-related adverse events, and minimized healthcare costs.
