Medication Management Messaging
Pharmacy coaching and daily medication reminders can have a profound positive effect on the cost of healthcare delivery.
Patients who are well-informed and take their medications on time will less likely develop life threatening symptoms that require costly treatments. Medication Management Messaging enables providers, payers and pharmacies to send automated HIPAA compliant medication reminders and education to patients’ mobile phones with updated information on medication administration, dosage, label warnings, etc. The application generates reports which enable payers and providers to monitor patient participation by receiving receipts and confirmation replies from patients and it can establish a secure two-way communication between patients and providers if questions arise regarding to the medication.
Prevention and Intervention
The first key to reducing healthcare cost is ongoing patient education, prevention, medication management and regular doctor visits. Insuring that patients receive education about appropriate treatment and prevention will minimize the potential for more costly complications. The City of Ashville study shows that chronic disease management and patient education can lower healthcare cost by 34% per patient. Pharmacy coaching and daily medication reminders can also have profound positive effect on healthcare cost reduction. Additionally, regular and on time doctor visits for patients with chronic diseases can improve the health of the patient while reducing the total cost of healthcare delivery.
