Abstract

ObjectivesTo propose a metric evaluating the quality of comprehensive medication reviews (CMRs), and to discuss the optimal setting for CMR delivery. SummaryFirst, we provide a current assessment of the quality of CMRs performed in community, payer, and health system/clinic settings, with recommended opportunities for improvement. Thereafter, a companion metric for CMR quality is discussed, because this is critical to ensuring that patients are not just receiving CMR services, but that CMRs reflect evidence-based recommendations supporting optimal patient outcomes. ConclusionBased on the data currently available, accessibility to electronic medical records would enhance patient-specific recommendations to optimize CMR delivery and patient outcomes. Future studies may help to identify additional factors, such as pharmacist-physician collaboration in clinic and use of evidence-based recommendations, that can further enhance CMR quality.
