Background<br />
Medication adherence continues to be a major pitfall<br />
for advancing healthcare delivery. Poor adherence is a<br />
source for preventable illness and hundreds of billions<br />
of dollars in unnecessary costs in US healthcare. Some<br />
of the major barriers to medication adherence include<br />
patient difficulties with complex medication instructions<br />
and failure to keep track of medication consumption<br />
and refill schedules. In response to this gap in care<br />
coordination, AmerisourceBergen recently launched<br />
the newest release of the Good Neighbor Pharmacy<br />
mobile app, called My GNP.<br />
Program Details<br />

The app offers several new services that enable patients<br />

to view daily medications and receive reminders<br />
