JOB SUMMARY

The Medication Management Clinic (MMC) is a pharmacist led clinic that partners with primary care and specialty physicians to assist patients navigating the pharmacy system, including comprehensive medication management, education, insurance authorizations, refills, and financial assistance. MMC pharmacists work at the top of their license through collaborative practice agreements to manage drug therapy including prescriptive authority for various disease states, such as: diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, asthma, COPD, weight loss, tobacco cessation, rheumatologic indications, irritable bowel syndromes, and hepatitis C. The MMC is a hospital-based clinic that is rapidly expanding with the addition of new providers and disease states. The clinic is embedded within physician clinics as well as additional office locations in the outpatient pharmacy and hospital. Pharmacists work independently with their patients to meet therapeutic goals while also being a vital member of a multidisciplinary team. As the MMC grows, pharmacists have opportunities to contribute to the development of new services and find a role within the clinic that best suits them.
