Patient Compliance Report Follow-up

August 2nd, 2007 · No Comments · Bagatelles



The Recommendation

Enhancing Prescription Medicine Adherence: A National Action Plan, the report referenced in yesterday’s post, U.S. Government Discovers Treatment Adherence Below 100% Operation “In Your Face” Invoked, is now available.1

It is also, I believe, important enough to be worth reading by anyone interested in the healthcare system.2

I suggest those folks head to Proposed Action Plan For Enhancement Of Medication Adherence A Must Read for details and links for downloading the Report.


_____________________
  1. There is some potential for confusing the the report with its press release. The press release (aka Media Advisory), which is more useful than most examples of its genre, is entitled “America’s Other Drug Problem Poor Medication Adherence” and can be found at Online Press Release re NCPIE Report. The press release is also available as a four page PDF document at PDF of Press Release re NCPIE Report. While it’s not clear from the press release, the 34 page report itself is available on the web site of the National Council on Patient Information and Education, the group that organized the study. On that site, the link to the report (in PDF format) is Enhancing Prescription Medicine Adherence: A National Action Plan, which is the same name found on the title page of the report.
  2. This recommendation, incidentally, in no way changes my sentiments expressed in yesterday’s snarky post
