ACO Case Study

The power of better medication adherence data

How do you track (and improve) medication adherence effectively when your medication adherence data is weeks or months old?

ACO network Aledade confronted that challenge by adopting Medication History for Populations. With this addition to their population health management technology toolbox, they achieved results including:

  • More complete and timely insight into medication adherence, reducing the need for nonadherence outreach by 26%
  • Easier quality measure reporting, helping achieve 4- and 5-star ratings for diabetes, cholesterol and hypertension under Medicare Advantage contracts

With Medication History for Populations, care management teams across healthcare are gaining more power to reduce readmissions, raise CMS ratings, maximize reimbursements and ultimately improve outcomes. To learn how, get the case study and bonus resources to help you dive deeper, including:

  • Additional case studies from population health teams at Baptist Health and Parkland Health & Hospital System
  • A medication history buyer’s guide to help you assess medication adherence data sources
  • Other resources that unpack how Medication History for Populations fits into care management workflows
