Here on the occasion of new year’s day we gathered at the symposium and started our first day of the year by understanding how medicines play an important role in one individual’s life which is given to them. “I Dr. B. Suresh congratulated the whole CliMed Team for organizing such a wonderful event which is on the International Symposium of Medication Therapy Management. Firstly after receiving the invitation from CliMed I was about to give an excuse then I had thought of seeing into it and found many young pharmacists are trying to prove themselves and proving their role. I like people who talk less and work more. Here is the very important thing that to understand the passion and drive towards the goal which you are going to achieve. Because nothing going to happen in an overnight”. I have an example for this “ If you’re looking at Elon Musk, is talking about the landing of people on mars and handing them. He did not think the things gone to happen in over a night. He had planned for the past 10 years about the landing on Mars after 10 – 20 years. Here we see Elon Musk was thinking about the people to land after 10 – 20 years but not thinking about today. Likewise, you need to understand multiple aspects which gone a be in search of big vision, the people should believe in the vision and they have to persuade in that vision and try to see whether it is doable and make efforts takeovers. By this thing, Elon Musk tried his vision and proved himself and people believed him and challenged themselves and booked the planes, ready to buy his idea. “Even the futuristic idea is sold properly the people are ready to buy the idea, But we have kept it in mind that not everybody is willing to buy, for some, the idea can not be uniform, for some, it may be uniform. So we as a professional should try judiciously to target and reach out to the people.
Our approach has been very thin we want to be everywhere, but not to be visible what we are doing, that’s the sad part of our story to make our case when people ask us for data, information, and what the role really we play we don’t have any substance to tell except what has been done at the west side. Here in the Medication Therapy Management and its importance and whom all are people associated with it? Before going into it, firstly I put a question to all? Are we convinced about our role… if you are not believing what your doing then there is no point in moving further by lacking the confidence to deliver them what you want to In Medication Therapy Management, there are three stakeholders physicians (The providers), pharmacists and patients. Obviously, in medication management, we try to forget about the patient who is most important and beneficial we always talk about pharmacists knowledge and compare with the physicians’ knowledge and end up saying that we know better than them and why can’t we prescribe the medication for the patients. We don’t do our work and we want to do some others’ work as ours this is the beginning of the failure in some cases. If we will leave physicians as a part and talk only about the patients how they undergo these challenges, and how they are beneficial, then we see people standing around us and getting information on why clinical pharmacists are not being used effectively used for the advantage of people.
The two primary objects for the medication therapy
Improve the medication outcomes
Reduce the cost
Here I say that the pharmacists should act as a collaborator for both physicians and patients for beneficial. Make sure that to tell the insurance companies and government how to reduce the cost of care for them. If clinical pharmacists, these two things be delivered then people can make the way of opportunity and privilege to move further. There are a lot of medication Therapy Management efforts that have been carried out globally some have started legally while some have failed because they have started it as a separate service by moving away from the original stream to provide the care for the people. Here there is a problem that we pharmacists always focus on the physicians’ errors and talk in publications. We need to change our focus like how to prevent errors, talk about quality assurance rather than quality control in prescription, we can do best practices in prescription dairies. Our young pharmacists should think innovative by using technology rather than looking at the conventional beaten road pathway as the previous world passes by. We need to follow three steps first assessment and alignment and then accelerate set up the most beneficial to the patients by the technology developed. Basically, we see the problem in Medication Therapy Management was the attitude of pharmacists which prevents the implementation of the MTM system in the countries. We have kept in mind the diversity of the country in implementing and de-average technology to the maximum which is going to be our future. In future, we get the help to provide care for the patients and get to know how the pharmacists role in it”.
