How The HMR / DMMR Referral Process Works

Step 1

GP Identifies Eligible Patient

GPs assess patients who may be due for a Home Medicines Review. Age, number of medicines, recent hospital discharge, side-effects or poor response to treatment are key indicators.

Step 2

Referral Submitted Online

The GP completes an HMR referral via our secure online form (integrated with the PMS). Patient and clinical details are sent safely to the accredited pharmacist.

Step 3

Accredited Pharmacist Consultation

The pharmacist meets the patient, reviews all medications, storage and administration, assesses risk and provides support and guidance.

Step 4

GP Reviews Pharmacist Report

The GP receives the clinical report, reviews findings with the patient and updates the medication management plan as required.

Step 5

Medicare Item 900 Claimed

The GP bills Medicare Item 900. Ongoing collaboration and follow-up are supported through the DMMR Partners portal.
