Medication reminder calls are provided by Database Systems Corp. (DSC). Since 1978, DSC has been a leading provider of computer and telephone software. DSC's telephone reassurance phone systems were developed to contact homebound residents to ensure their well-being.

CARE (Call Reassurance) is a community calling program that ensures the well-being of senior citizens. This system and service has been used to contact home alone children, ensuring that they are OK. But CARE does more than check on the well-being of residents.

Using CARE technology, DSC can deliver medication reminder calls in just minutes to seniors and homebound patients. A recorded message can be delivered to individuals reminding them to take their prescription medication.

According to a recent U.S. Department Of Health and Human Resources study:

"Only 50-60 percent of patients are adherent in taking prescribed medicines. Non-adherence is particularly concerning in patient populations with a high prevalence of chronic conditions. Medication non-adherence costs an estimated $100 billion annually in the United States and accounts for 10 percent of hospital admissions." (1)
