Medication Management (MM) (Ambulatory Health Care / Ambulatory Health Care)


Formulary - Adding New Medication
Publish | January 01, 0001
How do we monitor patient response to a newly added medication before we make it available for dispensing or ordering?  

Standard MM.02.01.01, EP 3 requires that before you add a medication to your list or formulary, you are sure that either staff and licensed Independent Practitioners are trained on the effects of the medication and monitoring requirements. In addition, the organization must have access to appropriate laboratory or other diagnostic testing which may be required to monitor effectiveness.
