Study Summary
This study is designed to explore whether routine measurement of blood pressure by community pharmacists can improve patient adherence to blood pressure medications. The study will utilize an incentivized care approach, in which patients receive a $10 gift card for every time they come to the pharmacy for blood pressure management (up to 2 times/month). The investigators hypothesize that the simple process of coming in for a blood pressure measurement (without any other scripted interventions, counseling, or consultation) will be feasible and sufficient to improve adherence to medications. The investigators will also collect preliminary data to help estimate how these hypothetical improvements in adherence might result in improved blood pressure control, fewer office visits, and (ultimately) fewer adverse cardiovascular outcomes (i.e. heart attacks, strokes, etc).
