Washington Multistate Pharmacy Jurisprudence MPJE Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 445

According to OBRA-87, what is required every 30 days for patients in LTC facilities?

A physical examination by a doctor

Drug Regimen Review by a pharmacist

When it comes to patients in Long-Term Care (LTC) facilities, OBRA-87 (Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1987) requires a drug regimen review by a pharmacist every 30 days. This is to ensure that patients are receiving the most appropriate and effective medications for their conditions. Option A is incorrect because it states a physical examination by a doctor, which is not a requirement under OBRA-87. Option C, a meeting with the facility director, is also incorrect as it is not specific to medication management. Option D, a family conference call, is also incorrect as it does not pertain to medication management and may not even involve the patient's actual health care team.
