Hilton talked about Medchecks and and the Stop-Study program here at DayNight Pharmacy.

A reminder to inform patients about the Medcheck Program. Once a year, a person who resides in Ontario and is on 3 chronic medications or more can now sit down and review all medications and concerns in a free 30 minute consultation with a pharmacist. The Government will reimburse $50 for this service . An Ohip number is required.
A reminder to inform patrons about the Stop-Study Program. This is also a free stop cessation consultation and 5 weeks of cessation products available to those who wish to stop smoking. Gum, Patch or inhalers are available. Those who wish to participate must first go on-line and complete a short questionnaire which will in turn they will be given a Reference Number. This Reference Number will enable the pharmacist into which direction will be best suited for the participant to quit smoking.
