Medication Management Policy

Mental Health Care Coordination in Annapolis, Maryland

It our policy in Lily Health and Wellness Center to maintain a safe and competent medication management system that is based on evidence-based practice.

All Medication Management clients will need to sign a Release of Information (ROI) for any outside Medical Provider for communication needs regarding coordination of care. The ROI form is located under our “Online Forms” on the website and noted as “Patient Document Release Form”. This ROI form can be filled online and submitted directed on the website.

For Patients that has already established care at another practice but wanting to switch over to Lily Health and Wellness Center for medication management continuation will be required to request their last 3 visit notes from their previous provider to be faxed directly to Lily Health and Wellness Center before their first appointment.

All clients seeking medication management will obtain basic labs including a urine toxicology screen as part of their initial blood work after their first appointment with the provider. Initial lab order will include CBC with differential, CMP-14, Thyroid panel, lipid profile, Beta HCG quantitative (for women), urine toxicology screen. In some instances, some clients may require continued blood work to be done during their course of treatment depending on their prescribed medication, if it necessitates lab monitoring. This will be discussed with the patient individually by the provider.

All lab orders will be placed electronically, either to LabCorp or Quest Diagnostics. You may go to any of the chosen lab center that is closer or convenient for you.

When medications are lost, it raises a lot of concerns to healthcare providers and their respective pharmacies, more also if it’s a controlled medication. It is the responsibility of every client to ensure that all prescription medications including controlled medications are kept in a secure place and locked up to avoid theft or being lost by accident. For all medications reported as lost will require a police report. Please note that depending on your insurance coverage plan, Lily Health and Wellness Center Providers cannot guarantee prescription replacement as decisions are not made by us but solely by the insurance company. We are here to help you through this process if it happens.

Lily Health and Wellness Center recognizes the importance of quality medical care by monitoring and revising individualized, person-centered approach to care, followed by documentation that are consistent with our practice standard of care.
