Calculating Drug Adherence

Esmond
Dear all,

Is anyone familiar in calculating medication adherence using administrative
pharmacy claims data? I am interested in putting together syntax to
calculate the medication possession ratio (MPR) and/or proportion of days
covered (PDC) for drug adherence. I am familiar in using SAS to calculate
these measures however, I've never done it in SPSS. The data elements would
include drug type, fill date, and day supply.

I'm new to this discussion board and any help or direction you have would be
most appreciated.

Thanks,
Esmond
