Which of the following is NOT a requirement to enroll in the MTM program?

The MTM (Medication Therapy Management) program is designed to optimize therapeutic outcomes for individuals with multiple chronic conditions and complex medication regimens. To enroll in this program, individuals typically need to meet specific criteria that focus on their health status and medication use.

Being under the age of 65 is not a requirement for enrollment in the MTM program. In fact, the program is generally aimed at older adults who may be managing several chronic conditions. Many programs specifically target individuals who are 65 years of age or older, as they are more likely to have multiple health issues and take several medications. This demonstrates that age, particularly being under 65, does not disqualify someone from participating in MTM programs.

The other criteria, such as having multiple chronic conditions, taking several medications, and having a high combined medication cost, are all designed to identify individuals who would benefit most from the intensive management and support provided by MTM services. Each of these factors helps to ensure that the program effectively addresses the needs of participants, improving their medication management and health outcomes.
