Pharmacist II
About the Role
The Medication Management Clinic (MMC) is an ambulatory care pharmacist-led clinic that partners with primary care and specialty physicians to assist patients navigating the pharmacy system. Services include 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 rapidly expanding with new providers and disease states. The clinic is embedded within physician clinics, outpatient pharmacy, and hospital locations. Pharmacists work independently with patients to meet therapeutic goals while 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.
