Why MTM Certification Matters

MTM certification serves as an essential benchmarker for the highest standard of care. It reflects NBMTM’s core values of compassion and a passion for continuous learning. Patients, pharmacists, employers, credentialing organizations, and insurers hold board certification in high regard.  Board certification is considered as the highest standards of a pharmacist’s experience and knowledge to provide high-quality patient care.

Too many physicians and other healthcare providers have expressed their frustration over pharmacists without sufficient practical pharmacotherapy experience. Even though pharmacists learned proper knowledge based of clinical literature in pharmacy schools, today’s healthcare system requires pharmacists to exhibit a real-world understanding of drug therapy and not to simply quote guidelines and references from the clinical literature.

Being an MTM pharmacist requires more than merely reviewing drug interactions and determining proper drug dosing. It requires patient counseling that factors in patient’s emotional state, patient’s financial state, and patient’s cultural state. For more information visit website #MTM pharmacist.
