The costliest health problem in America
Half of the 3.2 billion annual prescriptions dispensed in the United States are not taken as prescribed. Approximately 125,000 deaths per year in the United States are linked to medication non-adherence. Depending on the group being studied, as many as 69% of medication-related hospital admissions and 40% of nursing home admissions in the U.S. are due to non-adherence. The total cost for non-adherence is an estimated $300 billion each year, the cost stemming from additional doctor visits, emergency room visits, hospital readmissions, and additional medications. Americans with a prescription medication: ~181 million Americans take some amount of prescription medications. Those who do not take them as prescribed: ~90 million Americans have medication adherence issues. Those who claim forgetfulness: ~62 million Americans cite forgetting as the primary reason for not taking their medication (e.g., busy schedules, senior citizens, Alzheimer's patients
