Medication nonadherence is associated with several adverse outcomes including increased hospital admissions, worse health outcomes and increased morbidity. Specifically, in chronic pain, these negative health outcomes can exacerbate the patient’s chronic pain, hampering the ability of practitioners to effectively treat their patients and ultimately leading to higher cost of care.

This white paper provides the latest information on remote therapeutic monitoring and considerations for how to build RTM into their practice to improve medication adherence and overall care.
