The MOH expects pharmacists to be interacting with their patients regularly (monthly) for LTC services. If the patient has not received any dispensings for over 120 days the MOH will stop paying the service fee for this patient. The LTC Manager keeps track of patients who have Reviews overdue and with last dispensing over 120 days ago (noted in red at the top of the list of LTC patients). Check these patients and exit them as necessary.
