Summary

The objective of this pilot study is to explore barriers to medication adherence among HPHC members with CKD, particularly those not yet on dialysis, and to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a wireless, internet-based MedMinder system intervention among HPHC enrollees with CKD and their care partners. The investigators hypothesize that the intervention will improve medication use and adherence among patient members with CKD on complex medication treatment, and improve informal caregivers' ability to provide support for improved medication use among patient members.
