Description

Medication nonadherence is generally defined as a patient’s inability to take their medications correctly as prescribed by their doctors. Medication nonadherence adversely affects patient outcomes and increases healthcare costs. Prior research found that health system-, condition-, patient- (older age is one factor), therapy- and social/economic-related factors have been identified to show effect on non-adherence. Our goal is to analyze the NHIS data to understand the sociodemographic and health causes of medication nonadherence, as well as answer the following questions about our selected topic: What variables are the most relevant drivers of nonadherence? Does the direction and strength of the associations between these variables and medication nonadherence vary over time? If so, how? Are trends getting better or worse? Do the results of your analysis suggest that social inequality factors may be linked to medication nonadherence? If so, how? What are the implications of your analysis for various stakeholders? How does this vary depending on whether medication nonadherence is intentional or unintentional?Advisors(s): Advisor/Instructor: Ying Xie | yxie2@kennesaw.edu Project Owner/Sponsor: Dr. Chi Zhang | czhang4@kennesaw.eduTopic(s): Data/Data AnalyticsIT4893 - IT Capstone (W01)
