THE Pharmacy Programs Administrator (PPA) has confirmed that claiming for follow-up Home Medicine Review (HMR) and Residential Medication Management Review (RMMR) services will be available by the middle of next month.
The changes to the programs (PD 21 Apr) are part of the response to the Interim Report of the Royal Commission into Aged Care Safety and Quality, and introduce up to two remunerated follow-up services within nine months of the initial patient interview.
This will enable Service Providers to follow up with both the patient and the referring Medical Practitioner.
