Compliance Rate
The Compliance Rate is calculated by dividing the actual days supply by the duration.

Actual Days Supply* = (sum of all days supply) – (days supply of last fill) – (overlapped days supply). For example, if there are two drugs before the last fill, each 30 days supply, overlapped for 10 days, the actual days supply will be 50.

The Duration = the number of days between the first fill and the last fill (the last fill is used only to determine the end date of the compliance period, but not considered part of the calculation).

*The maximum allowable days between two fills is defined by the plan. If the maximum days between two consecutive fills exceeds the defined (max days between fills), and there are at least two more fills remaining, the compliance rate will be calculated for the remaining days.

**To calculate the Compliance Rate between drugs and the drug name, days supply and quantity must be the same. If the drug name is the same, but the quantity/days supply changes, a new calculation will be started, since this is considered a new therapy.
