Washington, DC. February 9, 2022 – The National Board of Medication Therapy Management (NBMTM) has earned a 2022 Platinum Seal of Transparency, the highest level of recognition offered by GuideStar, the world’s largest source of nonprofit information.
The Platinum Seal of Transparency demonstrates NBMTM’s exceptional trustworthiness, financial strength, fiscal management best practices, and tangible successful outcomes in its mission of protecting the public by assessing and certifying pharmacists who meet specific educational, training, professional requirements and demonstrate the requisite knowledge, skill, and understanding of medication therapy management.

ABOUT GUIDESTAR
In February 2019, GuideStar joined forces with Foundation Center to form Candid, a new 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Today, GuideStar is a service of Candid. The GuideStar database contains a profile for every tax-exempt nonprofit registered with the IRS. The profiles are populated with information directly from nonprofits, the IRS, and other partners in the nonprofit sector. Candid encourages every nonprofit to claim and update its profile at no cost to the organization. Updating allows nonprofits to share a wealth of up-to-date information with the more than 13 million people who visit guidestar.org to learn more about nonprofit organizations each year. Updating also allows nonprofits to share information with the more than 200 philanthropic websites and applications that are powered by GuideStar data, such as AmazonSmile, Facebook, and Network for Good. To reach a given participation level, organizations must complete all required fields for that level. The GuideStar participation levels, acknowledged as symbols of transparency in the nonprofit sector, are displayed on all updated participants’ profiles in the GuideStar database.
