Patient Adherence and Compliance
FDS Adherence and Compliance Programs
What it is
FDS' patient education programs are designed to educate and empower your patients. Adheris’ direct-to-patient programs have shown that patients are more likely to stay on therapy when they understand:
- Why medication has been prescribed for them
- How the medication should be taken
- How long they should remain on therapy
- What to expect (i.e., side effects, onset of action, etc.) while they are on therapy.
There is in no new steps or tasks required of your pharmacy staff. All phases of each program are handled directly by the team of FDS, Inc. and Adheris, Inc. FDS provides a simple HIPAA compliant data feed to Adheris on your behalf.
- Prescription records from the pharmacies are processed and trigger a series of interventions based on program design and logical instructions derived from the patient therapy experience.
- Interventions are printed and mailed to the patients.
- Patients' communications arrive at their own homes directly from their own local pharmacist.
For each of the drugs available in the program, up to six letters will be sent out per year per patient. An easy to navigate web site for patients to op opt of the program is made available by Adheris.
