Variation in Provision of Collaborative Medication Reviews on Entry to Long-Term Care Facilities

Residential medication management reviews (RMMRs) are comprehensive medication reviews conducted by clinical pharmacists and general medical practitioners. RMMRs are the primary government-funded service to optimize medication management in Australian residential aged care facilities (RACFs) and are recommended for all new residents. This study investigated resident characteristics associated with timely RMMR provision within 90 days of RACF entry and national intrafacility variation in timely RMMR provision.
