Summary
More people require kidney transplants which are in short supply. Poor adherence to prescribed medicines risks kidney transplant rejection and increased morbidity. This project will develop and test a program to help adults requiring a kidney transplant to take their medicines as prescribed. Better medicine adherence results in improved graft life, general well-being, and reduced health care costs. Our industry partners share this vision of improved health for kidney transplant patients.
