That&#8217;s how Michael Rosenblatt, M.D., Chief Medical Officer at Merck, expressed it in a comment to a Wall Street Journal Health blog post. Lack of medication adherence is a major issue contributing to poor health outcomes and higher costs.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The challenge in changing such behavior is complex, but finding ways to improve patient adherence is a win-win situation for everyone involved in healthcare,&#8221; noted Dr. Rosenblatt. &#8220;There has never been a better time, nor time of greater need. Now is the time for all of us &#8212; patients, doctors, pharmacists, government, insurers, employers and the pharmaceutical industry &#8212; to work to solve this problem,&#8221; said Dr. Rosenblatt.<\/p>\n<p>HealthPrize Technologies believes it has at least part of the solution, which is to provide an innovative approach with an online and mobile-based program that is fun, engaging and educational.<\/p>\n<p>This article summarizes the results of a six-month asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) pilot study in which HealthPrize partnered with RealAge to test patient engagement with the HealthPrize online and mobile platform.<\/p>\n<p>Topics include:                                                         <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The healthcare costs associated with non-adherence<\/li>\n<li>So why is it so difficult to improve <a href=\"http:\/\/www.glossary.pharma-mkting.com\/adherence.htm\">adherence<\/a>?<\/li>\n<li>Treat People Like People, Not Patients<\/li>\n<li>The HealthPrize Model <\/li>\n<li>High Engagement Among Asthma\/COPD Patients<\/li>\n<li>Lessons Learned<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b><a href=\"http:\/\/ec2-54-175-84-28.compute-1.amazonaws.com\/pharma-mkting.com\/news\/pmn113-article01.pdf\">Download full article<\/a><\/b> (PDF)    <\/p>\n<p>PMN113-01<br \/> Issue: Vol. 11, No. 3<br \/>Publication date: 19 March 2012<br \/>Word Count: 1,852<\/p>\n<p><b>Find other articles in related Topic Areas:<\/b>  <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.news.pharma-mkting.com\/PMNcomplianceReprints.htm\">Compliance Marketing &amp; Education<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.news.pharma-mkting.com\/PMNpatedReprints.htm\">Patient Education<\/a> <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.news.pharma-mkting.com\/PMNmktresearchReprints.htm\">Market Research<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.news.pharma-mkting.com\/PMNprodreviewReprints.htm\">Product &amp; Service Reviews<\/a> <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Unless taken, medicines don&#8217;t work.
