This document discusses copay subsidy programs that target certain drugs and how health plans should respond. It notes that subsidies often target non-formulary drugs, drugs that recently lost patent protection, or high-cost specialty medications. These programs work by providing physical or digital cards to patients to lower their copayment at the point of sale. The document recommends ways for health plans to respond, such as increasing costs for non-formulary drugs, making generics cheaper, implementing step therapy, and partnering with manufacturers on specialty drugs to lower costs while supporting adherence.
xHealth: Quality, Accessible and Affordable Healthcare using Mobile PhoneOkello Nelson
xHealth is a healthcare platform. One of the business processes implemented on the platform is Counterfeit Drugs Checker. Counterfeit Drugs Checker aims at countering proliferation of counterfeit drugs by putting the power to report potential counterfeit drugs in the user's hands.
A general public user or a healthcare personnel can use the application to check the legitimacy of a drug. Additionally, a general public user can report any side effects suffered as a result of using the drug. The data collected from such reports would be shared with the drug manufacturers and other stakeholders to improve drug safety and to rid the general public of ineffective drugs.
Interaction with the platform is via SMS, IVR, Voice and mobile app.
This work is a combined effort of Okello Nelson, Chen Chengkuan, Siu Len, Hai Liang Gao and Nicole Yap.
Some companies are trying to make understanding prescription drug costs and coverage easier. One example is Humana's IntelligentRx service, which provides doctors real-time information about their patients' drug coverage, pricing, and pharmacy options directly in the exam room. This allows doctors and patients to discuss drug costs and options as the prescription is being written. By improving access to affordable medications, programs like this could help increase medication adherence and potentially reduce the approximately 125,000 deaths each year associated with not taking drugs as prescribed.

(2) education policy quality of education(6) health literacyVivan17
This document presents a concept map that identifies three pathways by which medication non-compliance can be conceptualized from a social perspective. All three pathways begin with education policy and its impact. One pathway shows how low education quality can lead to low health literacy and difficulty following medication instructions. Another pathway shows how high dropout rates from underfunded schools can result in low-wage jobs without insurance, reducing ability to afford or access medication. A third pathway notes self-efficacy and unwanted side effects can influence the relationship between ability to comply with a medication regimen and actual compliance. The document concludes by outlining interventions that could help address medication non-compliance at various points in the concept map.

This document provides a business plan for KIDS.ON, a proposed mobile app and website that connects children with chronic illnesses in hospitals to digital support groups. The plan outlines the opportunity to fill a gap in psychological support for sick children given budget cuts to mental health services. Key points of the plan include market research showing a large target market of hospitalized children, analysis of direct competitors like Ben's Friends and indirect stress relief apps, and goals for partnerships with 12 hospitals within a year and 24 hospitals within 3 years to distribute the app. The financial model relies on monthly subscriptions from partner hospitals to provide the app's services while ensuring user privacy.
Pharmaneek Pharmacy provides customized medication packaging and delivery to ensure patients take the right medication at the right time and in the right dosage in order to improve compliance and reduce $200 billion in annual healthcare costs due to non-adherence; their services include drug reconciliation, interaction screening, free delivery, and a co-pay assistance program to help patients afford medications. Pharmaneek aims to help healthcare organizations lower costs by reducing emergency visits, hospital readmissions, and waste from improper medication management through their patient-focused pharmacy services.
The document discusses improving medication adherence and the complex landscape of issues involved. It notes that non-adherence results in high healthcare costs and negative health outcomes. Pharma companies are engaging with adherence issues due to business risks from lower sales and regulatory scrutiny. The landscape is complex with many patient, stakeholder, and systemic factors influencing adherence. Human-centered design and the transtheoretical model of behavior change are recommended approaches for developing well-targeted adherence solutions. Connected health technologies also show promise if designed with privacy, costs, and usability in mind.
This document discusses a study of consumer healthcare apps and barriers to their broader use. It finds that while there are tens of thousands of apps available, most focus on wellness and few do more than provide information. Fewer than 500 downloads is typical for over 50% of apps. Barriers to greater use include a lack of guidance for patients, lack of evidence demonstrating benefits, and lack of integration into healthcare systems. Moving apps mainstream will require recognition of their role by payers and providers, addressing privacy and security, evaluating apps to guide patients and doctors, and integrating apps with care delivery.

How to Remedy the Dangers of Prescription Fraud, Waste, and AbuseElizabeth Dimit
This document discusses the dangers of prescription fraud, waste, and abuse. It describes schemes where patients are prescribed expensive medications by doctors they have never met through telemedicine companies. This puts patients' health at risk by exposing them to unnecessary or dangerous drug combinations without oversight. The article advocates combating this problem through integrating medical and pharmacy claims data across payors to identify larger schemes and protect patients. The Pharmaceutical Strategies Group company described in the article provides data analysis services to help health plans and investigators efficiently address fraud.
This document proposes a solution to increase medication adherence through a three-part system: an application, smart medication packaging, and a tracking dispenser. Non-adherence costs the healthcare system $300 billion annually and leads to 125,000 deaths. The proposed solution aims to benefit patients through education and reminders, doctors through adherence data, pharmacies through increased sales, and insurance companies through lower costs from reduced non-adherence. It outlines how each stakeholder would be positively impacted by connecting the various parts of a patient's care through a coordinated digital system.
Perceptions and attitudes of pediatricians and families with regard to pediat...Javier González de Dios
“Purpose This study aimed to identify the perceptions and attitudes of pediatricians and parents/caregivers regarding medication errors at home, and to compare the fndings from the two populations.
Methods This was a cross-sectional survey study. We designed a survey for working pediatricians and another one for parents or caregivers of children aged 14 years and younger. The survey’s questions were designed to assess provider and parental opinions about the difculty faced by parents providing medical treatment, specifc questions on medication errors, and on a possible intervention program aimed at preventing pediatric medication errors. Pediatrician and parent responses to matching questions in both surveys were compared.
Results The surveys were administered in Spain from 2019 to 2021. In total, 182 pediatricians and 194 families took part. Most pediatricians (62.6%) and families (79.3%) considered that managing medical treatment was not among the main difculties faced by parents in caring for their children. While 79.1% of pediatricians thought that parents consulted the internet to resolve doubts regarding the health of their children, most families (81.1%) said they con sulted healthcare professionals. Lack of knowledge among parents and caregivers was one of the causes of medication errors most frequently mentioned by both pediatricians and parents. Most pediatricians (95.1%) said they would recommend a program designed to prevent errors at home.
Conclusions Pediatricians and families think that medical treatment is not among the main difculties faced by parents in caring for their children. Most pediatricians said they would recommend a medication error reporting and learning system designed for families of their patients to prevent medication errors that might occur in the home environment.”
This document summarizes a report on prescription drug costs and utilization from Express Scripts. It provides an analysis of caregiving and the challenges caregivers face in managing their own health needs while also providing care to others. The summary found that 34.6% of Express Scripts members surveyed were caregivers. Caregivers reported poorer health and lower rates of medication adherence than non-caregivers. The report estimates that following evidence-based treatment guidelines for breast cancer could save an average of $8,000 per patient per year by reducing off-guideline treatment from 21.1% to 0%.
Painsolver is a clinical decision support tool designed to improve healthcare outcomes for low back pain.

2. Problem
As the CDC notes, in the US up to one in 5 medications are never filled, and approximately 50% of those are taken
incorrectly, often in regard to timing. This issue of non-adherence has grown to $100-300 billion dollars in
healthcare costs annually, primarily because of chronic diseases. However, few products are commercially used
and adopted across the US, and of these almost none are targeted towards pediatric populations, whose needs
and difficulties are fundamentally different than the adult population. Families introduce a dynamic that
complicates the issue of who is responsible for ensuring medication is taken, and, especially in younger children,
their developmental state presents unique issues in terms of motivation.
Furthermore, non-adherence has significant impacts even in children. Medically speaking, non-adherence is highly
correlated with recurrences of disease, and financially such recurrences result in costly re-admissions. In addition,
adherence to medication in children is surprisingly low, only 50-88% depending on condition. Thus, there is a
need for a device or system that targets this population to provide effective increases in drug adherence rates.
3. Solution
In order to effectively improve pediatric drug adherence, we propose a novel medical app targeted at families with
children. A host of factors are involved in non-adherence, including the difficulty of a particular regimen,
resistance from the child, the belief in the need for or effectiveness of the treatment, affordability, and relationship
with healthcare professionals (HCPs). Some of these, such as cost, are systemic to the medical industry. However,
we are able to combat others through our app. Our app provides reminders in addition to a central and user-
friendly place to see medication information. Furthermore, it is the first app of its kind to provide a specific
interface for children, which allows them to self-report to engage in their medical care.
A highly important aspect of our app is the gamification and reward strategy. So that the child better remembers
and takes their medication, we use a variety of rewards including virtual in-game rewards and physical rewards set
up with the parent. Also, the child must report if they've taken their medication in order to play the game,
providing a view of adherence that can be medically useful to the parent or to their physician.
4. Market
Our product targets users are families with children (or a child) aged 6-12 years old with a chronic medical
condition. While designing the app we are focusing on those children with epilepsy and acute asthma, as these
are conditions where adherence can be as low as 40 or 50%, and daily oral medication is often required. There are
over a million children in the US with these conditions; furthermore, our app is easily expanded to children with
other conditions.
It is not feasible to derive a revenue source straight from the consumers, so we identify three possible partners:
insurance companies, who want to low the number of re-admissions due to non-adherence; pharmaceutical
companies (e.g. Merck) who wish to increase drug sales due to more refills corresponding due to adherence; and
pharmacy companies (e.g. CVS) who likewise would like to increase drug sales. For any company that we partner
with, we plan to charge a per user/per month charge, and utilize a software as a service model, wherein the
partner pays us to maintain the software for the customers, which ensures long term revenue. Our competition is
minimal: there exist no other commercial apps targeted at improving children's drug adherence.
