The Learning Healthcare System framework can be applied to the challenge of medication nonadherence by addressing underlying causes such as side effects.
A Learning Healthcare System framework can be applied to address medication nonadherence, using statin therapy as an illustrative example.
A Learning Healthcare System has been defined by the Institute of Medicine as a system in which continuous improvement and innovation occur and best practices are seamlessly embedded in the delivery process. 1 New knowledge is captured as an integral by-product of the delivery experience. This framework seems directly relevant to the problem of medication nonadherence, which can occur at multiple points when a patient is on lifelong therapy and often goes undetected but, if recognized, can be addressed by therapeutic changes that address the underlying cause (eg, side effects). Statin medications can be used to illustrate how a Learning Healthcare System framework can be applied to the challenge of medication nonadherence.
