2013 National Consumer Survey on the Medication Experience

Background
• Over 500 million times per day in the United States, individuals make the decision to-take or not-to-take a prescription medication.
• Eighty percent of the way chronic diseases are prevented and managed is with medications.
• A person’s regular interaction with medications is not only a frequently and consistently occurring health care event, it also interfaces with almost all other aspects of his or her health care.
Study Assumption
Individuals enter and exit various components of the health-care system and they shift between their preferred identity as a person and their sometimes necessary identify as a patient.
The “medication experience” can be a unifying and coordinating concept to bridge this dichotomy.
The Medication Experience
• The personal approach to the use of medications.
• It is shaped by traditions, religion, culture life experiences, and what has been learned from others.
• It influences expectations, concerns, understanding, involvement, confidence, trust, decisions, and behaviors.

The Challenge
• Patients vary widely in their make-up, their preferences, and their needs.
• Patients have different abilities, motivations, and social support systems.
• The challenge, then, is to meet the needs of each individual.
2013 NCSME: Study Objective
• Identify and describe consumer segments based on:– Health care consumer type– Medication beliefs– Patient activation– Information seeking– Nature of interactions with health professionals
for decision-making
2013 NCSME: Methods
• Cross-sectional, descriptive mailed survey.
• Random sample of 1,000 adult individuals residing in the United States.
• 136 were undeliverable and 93 signified that the person to whom the survey was addressed was not able to participate in the study.
• Of the remaining 771 surveys, 218 (28%) responded.

Conclusions
• The medication experience is more than a clinical experience – it is a social and personal experience.
• The medication experience is rooted in medication beliefs, personal abilities and motivations, information processing, decision-making relationships, finances, and the effects of life experiences.
Future Work
• Expand the identification and description of segments based on components of the medication experience.
• Incorporate components of the medication experience into patient care processes
• Build systems for identifying and matching patients and providers based upon preferences and capacities in the medication experience domain.
