Study Summary
Patients often have problems with their medications after leaving the hospital and going back home. The goals of this study are to provide a special electronic pill-box with pre-filled weekly medication trays that can alert patients when it is time to take their medications, alert family members (with patients' permission) if there is a problem, and produce a report of medication-taking habits for patients' primary care providers. The investigators will evaluate the effects of this technology on patients' ability to take their medications safely, on the control of chronic conditions like high blood pressure, and also ask patients about any barriers to using this technology in the real world. The investigators hypothesize that a smart pillbox (i) can be successfully implemented in the transitions setting, including engagement of patients, caregivers, and providers in electronically available medication adherence reports; (ii) will decrease medication discrepancies and increase medication adherence in the 6 months after hospital discharge; and (iii) among patients with hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and hyperlipidemia will improve routinely collected measures of disease control.
Interventions
