Board Certified Medication Therapy Management Specialist

The Board Certified Medication Therapy Management Specialist (BCMTMS™) is a voluntary credential focusing on Medication Therapy Management with a distinct level of achievement beyond entry-level licensure. Pharmacists with the designated title BCMTMS™ demonstrate skills in handling complex patient care scenarios that can only be learned through experience and training. Board Eligibility is necessary to participate in the certification process and sit for the NBMTM certification examination. A candidate must meet all the following requirements: A. The candidate must hold a pharmacy degree from a school of pharmacy accredited by the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE) or the Canadian Council For Accreditation of Pharmacy Programs. Foreign Graduate Pharmacists must hold an equivalent degree to the requirements of a U.S. pharmacy degree such as a Bachelor’s degree (BPharm), Master’s degree in Pharmacy Practice (MPharm), or Doctor of Pharmacy degree (PharmD), and submit proof of pharmacy licensure in the country in which they practice. B. The candidate must hold a valid, unexpired, and unrestricted license to practice in at least one state, commonwealth, territory, possession of the United States or province of Canada. If the pharmacist is licensed outside of the United States the license must be valid, unexpired and unrestricted to meet this requirement. C.
