Free webinar to help clinicians improve patients' medication adherence

A free webinar is being offered on Tuesday, Nov. 19, 2013, from 12 to 1 p.m. EST to help clinicians engage in frank conversations with patients to improve their medication adherence.


Have you ever suspected that some of your patients may not be taking their medicine as directed, but didn't know how to ask them? A free webinar is being offered on Tuesday, Nov. 19, 2013, from 12 to 1 p.m. EST to help clinicians engage in frank conversations with patients to improve their medication adherence.

This “Script Your Future” webinar is part of a public education campaign to raise awareness about medication adherence that is sponsored by the National Consumers League, a group with which ACP partners on special projects. Leading the webinar, ACP Member Ira Wilson, MD, chair of the Department of Health Services, Policy and Practice at Brown University in Providence, R.I., will discuss how to use a patient-centered approach to address the challenge of motivating patients and will address questions posed by Web participants.

To register for the webinar, go online. For more information about the “Script Your Future” campaign, visit the program website.
