Study: Medication Adherence Could Create $4.7B Savings, And That’s Just for Diabetics

Additionally, the study found maintaining adherence for patients who dropped off in medication adherence could produce an estimated $3.6 billion in annual savings, bringing the total potential savings to $8.3 billion.

The study also found that diabetes patients who took their medicine according to their physicians’ orders had a 13 percent lower chance of hospitalization than patients who did not adhere to their medications.
