A White Paper Available Free Of Charge Courtesy Of Genoa, a QoL healthcare company

About This White Paper:

The concept of integrated health care is not new, but how does pharmacy fit in and how can a truly integrated approach affect outcomes? This white paper discusses pharmacies integrated with community mental health centers, and the effect the model has on medication adherence. Studies have consistently shown a correlation between increased medication adherence and decreased hospitalizations. A decrease in hospitalizations means lower overall health care costs. National averages for medication adherence rates have been reported anywhere from 20% to 70%; however, this example of an integrated approach demonstrates medication adherence rates consistently over 90%. Moreover, it shows significantly lower rates of hospital and emergency department (ED) visits. Read this free white paper to learn how on-site pharmacies can improve medication adherence, decrease health care costs, and lower rates of hospital and ED visits.
