Medication compliance and adherence: a recipe for boosting patient results

Author(s): Daniel William*

In the past, indicators of patient health outcomes included symptom recurrence, emergency department visits, hospitalization and readmission rates, morbidity, and mortality. The promptness of disease diagnosis and management, the expense of therapy, the availability of health insurance, and medication adherence are all factors that providers, who play a large role in the healthcare system, can affect. Beyond the availability and accessibility of healthcare, the capacity of patients to follow doctors' treatment advice greatly contributes to patient outcomes. Unfortunately, there has been a lot of pharmaceutical non-adherence, which has led to poorer health conditions, higher healthcare costs, and higher healthcare spending. This article offers some fresh suggestions and worthwhile factors for promoting drug adherence. Compliance could be improved by raising provider and patient awareness and implementing active and passive communication strategies, including reminders with consent. Adherence might be increased through supporting collaborations between service provider organizations and community and faith-based organizations. It may be possible to promote refills and compliance by adopting an income-based cap on out-of-pocket expenses and modifying the physical characteristics, bioavailability, and dosage schedule of medications to accommodate a variety of patient population preferences. Patient outcomes can be enhanced by maintaining good medication adherence
