Two major trends dominate healthcare in the United States. Chronic Illness is on the rise, meaning American's are having more difficulty than ever attaining mental and physical wellness. Providers are facing an unfriendly business of medicine environment requiring them to solve complex management problems while maintaining a high level of clinical excellence. The payment goal posts have moved requiring providers to understand and measure the value they provide to patients, not just the services they complete or perform. As providers struggle to understand the meaning of value in medicine and what outcomes qualify, consumers continually turn to alternative medicine and wellness initiatives to maintain their health.

Team Lift: Predicting Medication AdherenceNeil Ryan
Medication adherence is a growing public health concern in the US. It is the extent to which patients are taking medications as prescribed by their healthcare providers. Simply put, are patients eating their pills on time?
We looked at patient data from Medicare part D program released by Centers for Medicare & Medicaid services. We built a prediction model to ascertain whether a patient would be adherent based on a variety of social, economic and behavioral aspects.

What is AOT?
Assisted outpatient treatment (AOT) for provides court-ordered mental health
treatment – including medication – in the community for those with a severe
mental illness who have a history of poor outcomes caused by their inability
to maintain treatment voluntarily.
THOSE MOST IN NEED: AOT serves the most severely
ill, who cycle in and out of jails, hospitals and the streets
because their illness prevents them from understanding
they need care. Due to strict legal criteria, AOT recipients
typically represent far less than .05% of a state’s popula-
tion, yet, on any given day, they make up 25% or more of
those living on the streets, behind bars, or in crisis care.
AOT RECIPIENT CHARACTERISTICS:
• Majority have schizophrenia or severe bipolar disorder
• 97% percent had been hospitalized previously
• 47% had co-occurring substance abuse disorder
• 47% did not adhere to needed medication regiment
before AOT
THE REVOLVING DOOR’S COSTS: Each psychiatric
readmission costs on average $7,500.i Medication non-
compliance is the number one risk factor.ii AOT greatly
increases medication adherence and reduces costs from
re-admission.iii
HUGE COSTS TO PUBLIC HEALTH SYSTEMS: Mental
illnesses account for nearly 20% of all Medicaid re-admis-
sions.iv Medicaid patients had more than 75,000 mental
health re-admissions within 30 days in one year.v Nearly
25% of Medicare patients with psychoses were readmitted
within one month of discharge.vi
