Study Summary
The 4-arm factorial design RCT tested the impact of a behavioral intervention (SBI or BI), a reminder device (Pillbox), and the combination of the two on adherence in adult patients who filled a prescription for oral medications to treat diabetes or hyperlipidemia.
Primary Outcome
Medication adherence was measured as a Proportion of Days Covered (PDC) by calculating (at the patient level) the denominator as the number of days between the first fill of the medication during a measurement period and the end of the measurement period and the numerator is calculated as the number of days covered by prescription fill date and days of supply. For each patient, the PDC was calculated at baseline and 9-months. The baseline PDC was compared to that at 9-months.
Interventions
- BEHAVIORAL Screening and Brief Intervention (BI)
- BEHAVIORAL Pill Box (PB)
