Improve medication adherence with targeted patient feedback

Medication non-adherence costs the healthcare system billions annually and leads to poor patient outcomes. This Medication Adherence Patient Barrier Survey helps healthcare providers, pharmacies, and health systems identify the root causes preventing patients from taking their medications as prescribed.

Built with Paperform, this template captures critical insights across four key barrier categories: medication cost affordability, dosing schedule complexity, side effect tolerability, and pharmacy auto-refill program satisfaction. The survey uses conditional logic to dig deeper into specific challenges, ensuring you gather actionable data without overwhelming patients.

Perfect for healthcare providers who need to understand adherence challenges

This survey template is ideal for:

• Hospital systems and clinics tracking quality metrics and patient outcomes
• Pharmacy benefit managers identifying cost and access barriers
• Retail and specialty pharmacies optimizing services like auto-refill programs
• Clinical researchers studying medication adherence patterns
• Health insurance companies improving member medication compliance
• Chronic disease management programs supporting patients with complex regimens

How this template supports better patient care

The survey flows naturally through medication adherence barriers, starting with cost concerns, moving through dosing complexity and side effects, then concluding with pharmacy service feedback. Conditional questions appear based on patient responses, creating a personalized experience that respects their time.

Healthcare providers can use AI Insights to quickly identify patterns across hundreds of responses—spotting which barriers affect most patients, which medications cause the most issues, and which interventions might have the biggest impact. Connect submissions to your EHR system, CRM, or patient engagement platform via Stepper workflows to automatically flag high-risk patients for follow-up.

Built for healthcare's unique needs

With Paperform's SOC 2 Type II compliance and robust security features, you can confidently collect sensitive patient feedback. The form can be embedded in patient portals, sent via email after appointments, or accessed through QR codes in waiting rooms. Use calculation fields to score adherence risk and trigger different follow-up protocols based on responses.

Whether you're a clinical pharmacist conducting medication therapy management, a quality improvement coordinator tracking patient satisfaction, or a healthcare administrator measuring program effectiveness, this template gives you the structure to gather meaningful adherence data and turn it into better patient outcomes.
