The government of Ontario has leveraged community pharmacist expertise in medication management. One professional service are medication reviews via the MedsCheck program, which remunerates pharmacies for completing medication reviews among patients taking three or more medications for chronic disease, patients living with diabetes, patients at home, and patients in long-term care.
Below you will find interactive charts exploring longitudinal data related to MedsCheck programs, divided into four categories:
- Annual: Blue
- Diabetes: Red
- Home: Green
- Long-Term Care: Yellow
Three main indicators were selected, and are represented in the interactive atlas tool as distinct tabs for each service:
- Trends: Trends in the number of monthly claims by region and type of service.
- Age & Sex: Crude counts and rates by age-group and sex.
- Maps: Choropleth maps representing regional summaries of standardized rates.
