Medication non-adherence is a significant challenge for all healthcare payers but, given its role in CMS Star Ratings, it bears particular weight for Medicare Part D plans.  

In a new study, MedImpact evaluated the impact of using predictive data and technology to achieve early identification of members at risk for non-adherence. Read their findings.
