Abstract:
Noncompliance with a designated healthcare plan is a common barrier to achieving healthcare goals. It can exacerbate health problems for the patient and add significantly to healthcare costs throughout the healthcare system. Researchers have identified certain characteristics that increase the risk of noncompliance. Preliminary screening for these characteristics by the case manager would identify individuals at risk and could provide information that could be incorporated in the care plan for the patient. A screening tool based on identified risk indicators was developed to aid in the recognition of and the planning for individuals at risk for noncompliance.
