MedsCheck program

The MedsCheck program is a new Program included in the Medication Management Programs under the Fifth Community Pharmacy Agreement.

This service will provide an in-pharmacy review of a patient’s medicines by a pharmacist.

This service aims to:

  • help patients learn more about their medicines including how medicines affect medical conditions
  • identify problems patients may be experiencing with their medicines
  • improve the effective use of medicines by patients, and
  • educate patients about how to best use and store their medicines.

The program is expected to be available from mid-2012.
