- W2176670654 abstract "Analysis of Telephonic Pharmacist Counseling by Katherine N Swift BS, University of Illinois, 1974 Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Public Health Walden University September 2015 Abstract Medication complexity and nonadherence are significant risk factors for avoidable hospitalizations and health care spending for older adults in the United States. However, limited empirical research has investigated pharmacist-run telephonic medication management programs as a potential solution to the problem of reducing medication complexity while improving medication adherence. This quantitative study employed the behavioral change model to analyze archival data from a sample of 1,148 participants, examining the relationship of a pharmacist-run telephonic consulting program on medication adherence and medication complexity for one pharmacy benefit management firm’s Medicare Part D recipients. The primary research questions investigated the relationship of medication therapy management programs to medication adherence and complexity. Data were assessed using correlation and regression analysis to determine the association between receiving pharmacist counseling, medication adherence, and medication complexity, and to assess the strength of any relationships identified. No linear relationship was found between pharmacists’ counseling, medication complexity, and medication adherence. However, the study found a weak correlation between medication complexity and comorbidities, and between medication complexity and medication adherence. This study promotes positive social change by identifying information that can be used to reduce pharmaceutical industry liability by improving proper management of medications, by reducing the burden of comorbidities related to poor management of chronic disease, and streamlining health services and improving their outcomMedication complexity and nonadherence are significant risk factors for avoidable hospitalizations and health care spending for older adults in the United States.

I may not have been the best student, but I always gave it my best. My parents were both college graduates. I thank both of them for giving me the tools to become a successful student throughout my years. Procuring a Ph.D. was part of my wish list that I told myself I would do someday after having children and seeing them through college successfully. I thank my daughter Norma-Jean for her research and time to introduce me to online education and Walden University, and for her continued support to see me through to the finish line. Finally, I would like to dedicate this degree to my husband of 23 years. His understanding of my missing family and friend events due to school assignments has been phenomenal. I thank him for his unending support, patience, and encouragement all these years. I love you. Acknowledgments This was my journey, and like many others before me down this same path, mine required people with various roles of support, and I have many to acknowledge. I would like to thank Janice Moore and Mike Cline for their invaluable assistance in collection and management of patient data. In some cases, it was not what you knew, but whom you knew. Secondly, I would like to thank those who guided me through my dissertation process. I cannot say enough about the support and guidance I received from my chairperson Dr. Cheryl Anderson, and my committee members Dr. Hadi Danawi, Dr. Diana Naser and Dr. Basil Considine. As with all great productions, many individuals behind the scene add to the success. I would like to express my gratitude to Dr. Heather Miller, who gave me clarity with my writing and Dr. Jeff Zuckerman who editing skills were indispensable. A thankyou to James Moore, a wonderful and patient statistician whose writing skills were instrumental in the preparation of this work. Through him, I found a new respect for SPSS, and hierarchical regression. As with the more traditional platforms of educational learning, peer support is also very important. Classmates help ground one, lend assistance, and above all, help to keep one’s sense of humor. Many times humor was the best remedy. Therefore, I would like to thank Walden University students Dr. Gary “Bones” Longmuir (June 2015 PhD graduate) and Mary “Helena Handbag” Trimble RN, MPH for being there for me through the years." @default.
