Apple isn\u2019t inventing anything new with its medication tracking feature<\/a> for iPhone and Apple Watch, which the company announced as part of watchOS 9<\/a> at WWDC 2022 this week. There are plenty of apps already on the market that give people alerts when they\u2019re supposed to take their medications.<\/p>\n
But trying to get people to take their drugs regularly is a major problem in healthcare, and around half of the people<\/a> prescribed medications for chronic conditions don\u2019t take them as instructed. That non-adherence costs the healthcare system hundreds of billions of dollars<\/a> a year because people get sicker when they don\u2019t take their meds properly. And even though the tool doesn\u2019t have everything on experts\u2019 wish lists for the ideal drug app, a tech company like Apple entering the ring could be a helpful development.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think it is a step in the right direction,\u201d says Seth Heldenbrand, an associate professor of pharmacy practice at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cI think it is a step in the right direction.\u201d<\/q><\/aside>\n<\/div>\nThe tool lets users input a list of the medications they take and set a specific reminder schedule for each drug. When it\u2019s time to take a med, people get an alert on their iPhone or Apple Watch. Then, they can hit \u201ctaken\u201d or \u201cskipped\u201d to log the dose. The Health app will track how often a user takes their meds over time. <\/p>\nThese types of nudges can help improve medication adherence, research shows<\/a>. It\u2019s helpful for the subset of patients where forgetting to take a drug is the main reason that they\u2019re not adhering to a treatment plan, says Mary de Vera, an associate professor at the University of British Columbia who studies medication adherence. But it\u2019s less helpful for other groups: if someone isn\u2019t taking medication because they don\u2019t understand why it\u2019s necessary, a smartphone alert isn\u2019t going to solve the problem. <\/p>\n
People who use Apple\u2019s medication app will be able to share their medication history with family members or others through the Health app\u2019s sharing feature<\/a>. That could give doctors insight into how their patients are taking medications, which Heldenbrand says is useful information. But it\u2019d only be one-sided through the app \u2014 and one-sided communication around medication has historically been less successful than a system where doctors can write back, de Vera says. Nudges tend to work better if they\u2019re part of a positive feedback loop with providers. <\/p>\n
Just offering up a reminder feature might not drive major changes, particularly around something as challenging as medication adherence. \u201cA patient might have a high internal motivation to start using something like this and interacting with it \u2014 but do they keep using it, and does it actually help them take their medications? That adherence needle is a hard needle,\u201d Heldenbrand says.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cThat adherence needle is a hard needle.\u201d<\/q><\/aside>\n<\/div>\nFor iPhone users, this feature would be more accessible than some standalone apps already on the market. Users wouldn\u2019t have to figure out how to download and set up a separate program, especially if they\u2019re already using the Health app. Because this is in the existing Apple ecosystem, it also means users aren\u2019t sending their health data to another third party. \u201cThat provides a layer of protection for patients\u2019 privacy,\u201d Heldenbrand says. <\/p>\n
Apps also come and go, and a tech giant like Apple offers more stability to someone\u2019s routine \u2014 which experts say could be good for getting people to keep taking their medicine. \u201cThis is like long game, especially when we\u2019re talking about medication adherence,\u201d de Vera says. \u201cFor some patients, it\u2019s lifelong. So you need a player that is going to play the long game.\u201d<\/p>\n
A medication feature means people and their doctors could see how <\/strong>medication adherence is related to changes in things like sleep, exercise, and heart rhythm on the Health app. Those relationships could also be valuable to researchers looking at big-picture trends. Right now, even though there\u2019s data to show that some people take medications more regularly when they\u2019re using an app, it\u2019s not clear if or how much that goes on to improve their health, Heldenbrand says. \u201cThat\u2019s the million dollar question right now.\u201d<\/p>\n
Of course, that would require Apple to decide to either share information with researchers or launch their own studies to answer some of these questions. If they do, though, there could be a lot to learn. \u201cIt\u2019d be very rich,\u201d de Vera says. \u201cAnd it would lead to a better understanding of how patients are taking their medications.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
