Text Message Prescription Reminders Significantly Improve Patient Adherence to Oral Diabetes Medication
MarketWatch May 24, 2012
"The study of 580 employer-sponsored and Medicare members of a national pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) found that patients receiving text message reminders had better medication adherence rates than those who did not -- 85 percent vs. 77 percent. The adherence rates for those taking chronic anti-diabetes medication were even higher -- 91 percent vs. 82 percent. Medication adherence is defined as the extent to which patients take their medications as instructed by a physician."
