Domiciliary Medication Management Review - Guidelines

DMMR will also be known as the Home Medicines Review. Guidelines have been sent to SBOs to be distributed to divisions as advanced notice. Collet te Murray spoke about the new item at the EPC Network meeting on the 17th of August. The new MBS item 900 has been approved and will be included in the November 2001 Medicare Benefits Schedule. It is likely that the new item will be gazetted to be avail able from 1 October.

This Guidance is currently being finalised for design, printing and distribution. It is expected that initial copies of the Guidance will be distributed through Divisions of General Practice. The Guidance will also be a key resource for Medication Management Review Facilitators who will be employed in Divisions to support the operation of DMMR.
