Patient nonadherence to medication is one of the biggest problems facing providers and hospitals today. Treatment doesn’t work if someone doesn’t follow instructions, but how can facilities spot those patients – and convince them to change their behavior? Strategic use of patient data can help.
Using data analytics can improve rates of medication adherence, and it may also lower healthcare costs.
Almost $300 billion per year is spent on caring for health conditions attributable to nonadherence, according to Healthcare Finance News.
