Summary

Statins have been demonstrated to significantly reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, but adherence to these medications is suboptimal. Improving adherence can be challenging because it is multifactorial and behaviors often occur within the everyday lives of patients and are less addressable during a visit with a clinician. In this study, the investigators will conduct a randomized trial to evaluate a behaviorally-designed gamification intervention with remote nursing support to improve statin adherence.

Conditions

  • Medication Adherence

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Text Message Gamification and Remote Support

Participants in the intervention arm consists of several components: (I) medication check-ins with the ability to set the time(s) for daily medication reminders, (II) a gamification experience to drive behavior change, (III) ability to identify a support partner who receives weekly updates on the patient's game status; (IV) access to an RN team for clinical questions and care coordination, and (V) patients' providers can see real-time progress within an electronic health record (EHR) integrated application.
