Abstract:
A system and method for increasing patient adherence to following medication treatment regimens. An adherence data processing and communication system generates and displays medication adherence data based on historical medication information. The system is linked to other systems involved with electronic ordering and filling of prescriptions, such as electronic prescription and pharmacy systems all connected by suitable wired and/or wireless communication protocols including the Internet. In one embodiment, the adherence data is displayed in the form of an interactive report card which provides a user with adherence metrics in both summary and more detailed formats for prescription medications taken by the patient. A related method executed by the data processing and communication system is disclosed.
