SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Provides a data-driven assessment of patient medication adherence by analyzing MedicationDispense, MedicationRequest, and related FHIR data to compute MPR and PDC, identify gaps, polypharmacy concerns, and potential barriers to adherence.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Identify patient active medications and pull dispense history to compute MPR and PDC.
  • Flag refill gaps, early refills, and polypharmacy burden; generate actionable insights.
  • Correlate adherence with clinical outcomes (e.g., HbA1c, BP, LDL) and generate recommendations.

Quick Start

Generate a patient adherence report by analyzing MedicationDispense and MedicationRequest data for the last 12 months to compute PDC and MPR.

FAQPage Schema
How do I compute medication adherence MPR and PDC from FHIR data?

You compute medication adherence MPR and PDC from FHIR data by analyzing MedicationDispense and MedicationRequest resources to extract dispense history for active chronic medications. This Skill calculates both metrics over a defined period to quantify patient adherence.

What clinical outcomes can I correlate with medication adherence metrics?

You can correlate medication adherence metrics with key clinical outcomes including HbA1c, blood pressure, and LDL. This Skill correlates adherence data with these clinical markers to evaluate treatment effectiveness and generate actionable intervention recommendations.

How do I identify polypharmacy burden and refill gaps in FHIR MedicationDispense records?

You identify polypharmacy burden and refill gaps in FHIR MedicationDispense records by analyzing active medication lists and dispense timelines. This Skill flags refill gaps, early refills, and polypharmacy burden to highlight potential adherence barriers.

Does this medication adherence assessment apply the WHO 5-Dimension framework?

Yes, this medication adherence assessment applies the WHO 5-Dimension framework to evaluate patient barriers. It combines this framework with computed MPR, PDC, and polypharmacy metrics to produce a structured report with recommended interventions.

What is the best way to assess barriers to medication adherence using clinical analytics?

The best way to assess barriers to medication adherence using clinical analytics is combining quantitative metrics like PDC with the WHO 5-Dimension framework. This Skill analyzes FHIR dispense data to flag gaps and correlate adherence with outcomes like HbA1c and BP.
