Adherence. Consistency. Accountability.
In medical treatment regimens requiring self-infusion, one of the biggest challenges for providers and insurers is tracking the actual usage of medicine. For instance, both the doctor who prescribes a replacement factor for hemophilia and the insurer who pays for it want to be as certain as possible that the patient is actually infusing this expensive medicine on the prescribed schedule; the former, to ensure the patient’s consistent self-care, and the latter to ensure the expensive therapy isn’t collecting dust on a shelf. Further, treaters and payers know their costs rise and their resources are devoured by patients who don’t adhere, as those patients tend to have poorer outcomes, ending up in the emergency room or clinic far more often than patients who do stick to their regimen.
To improve results and reduce costs, advocates, payers and treaters collectively work to improve the recordation of infusions. Better records, all agree, lead to better treatment: doctors who see their patients “falling off” treatment in real time can intervene earlier, prevent worse outcomes, and save everyone time, pain, and money.
