3. Healthcare costs caused by mis-managed and non-adherence
use of medicines exceeded $200 billion in 2012, according to
IMS, Institute for Healthcare Informatics estimates. This
amount is equal to 8% of the nation’s healthcare spending
that year.
What are the causes for this wasteful spending in the U.S. healthcare system?
Proper Drug-Drug Interaction
Medication errors
In-effective communication between patient, pharmacist and doctor
Medical Non-Compliance
Problems with
Current System
4. Reasons for Medical Non-adherence
Forgetting to take their prescription on time.
To compensate the missed dose they double the dose when they take it next time.
Cannot buy Rx because they do not have available funds to make the payment for
the co-pay.
Expensive drugs are stolen by relatives or other people.
Spill the meds from the bottles, and if they get mixed up with other drugs, they do
not know which one is which, if the drugs look alike.
They are experiencing pain or itching or other symptoms of drug reaction, but the
pharmacy never ran Drug-Drug interaction.
Can’t pick up the meds from the pharmacy due to non-transportation or bad
weather which leaves them without necessary medication.
Problem with opening the vials.
Problems due to
Patient Behavior
5. The failure to take drugs on time in the dosages prescribed, is as
costly as many illnesses
In a recent poll of U.S. individuals 65 years old and older who use medications,
researches found that :
• 51% take at least seven different prescription drugs regularly, and one in four take
between 10 and 19 pills each day.
• 57% of those polled admit that they forget to take their medications.
• Among those using seven or more medications, 63% say they forget doses, compared
to 51% among those who take fewer medicines.

The reasons behind this failure are varied;
ranging from simple forgetfulness to
confusion to ambivalence, but the
problem costs billion of dollars in
emergency-room visits and other
avoidable medical expenses in the US.
6. Responsible use of medicines can eliminate at least $213
billion in avoidable costs by addressing key areas.
Avoidable
Healthcare Costs
7. Causes for
Avoidable
Healthcare Costs
Medication non-adherence
This occurs when patients do not take their medicines appropriately or at all.
Delayed evidenced-based treatment practice
This occurs when medicines are not delivered to patients at a time that would be most valuable in
terms of health outcome and cost effectiveness.
Misuse of antibiotic
This occurs due to misdiagnosis or inappropriate decisions by prescribers and dispensers to provide
patients with antibiotics.
Medication errors
These occur across four processes—prescribing, preparation/dispensing, administration, and
monitoring—and often result in costly complications.
Suboptimal use of generics
This occurs if there is an unexploited opportunity for greater use of safe, less costly generics in
the market once patented drugs have lost their legal protection. The opportunity varies by
therapy class.
Mismanaged poly-pharmacy
This occurs when healthcare professionals do not, or cannot, adequately oversee patients who
take multiple medicines concurrently.
Harmful Drug to Drug Interaction
This occurs when the effect of a particular drug is altered when it is taken
with another drug, or with food.
8. Affect on
ACOs
These problems in current retail dispensing system adversely
affects Accountable Healthcare Organizations’ goals:
Increases patient ER visits
Increases hospital re-admissions
Improper medication management increases medication waste
