Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this research was to an americanize the effect of digital health interventions on medication compliance between patients with chronic illnesses in Indonesia.

Subjects and Methods: Based on this research, data was collected from 200 patients with chronic diseases and the study employed an experimental package and a control group. The intervention group benefitted from telemedicine consultation, use of mobile health application and SMS reminders for three months while the control group had no intervention at all. Data were obtained from pre and post intervention adherence surveys and tested using t-test, regression and analysis of variance.

Results: Descriptive statistic confirmed that a significant enhancement in medication adherence was observed in the participants of the intervention group than those of the control group (t = 13.68, p < 0.000). Also, other factors like digital engagement, higher income and better education were the significant predictors of better medication adherence.

Conclusions: In this paper, a call is made for an increase in digital health interventions targeting adherence behavior in vulnerable groups.
