Supported by Larrivière & Massicotte pharmacy (LMP)
We are committed to providing comprehensive, coordinated care at every stage of the patient’s treatment. After receiving a prescription, we begin by calling you to update your file. We then obtain patient consent, personal habits, and insurance information.
We then oversee reimbursement, whether for exception drug requests or exception patient forms. We then conduct a guidance call, which includes providing information, medication reconciliation, verification of drug interactions, checking up on laboratory results, as well as planning future follow-ups, among other things.
We will coordinate with your community pharmacy at the start of treatment. Our follow-up is long-term, involving a routine call every 7-14 days, followed by further calls depending on the patient’s clinical situation. These patients will also benefit from monthly follow-ups to assess treatment efficacy, toxicity, and adherence.
All our interventions are carefully documented in the patient’s file. In addition, we offer flexible delivery in 24 hours or less to the location of the patient’s choice. Our goal is to make the pharmaceutical care experience as convenient and stress-free as possible, and to facilitate the management of patients for community pharmacists.
