ProcDNA’s Approach
p
Prediction Algorithm
The ProcDNA team developed a prediction algorithm to estimate the risk of patient discontinuation based on several factors such as physician and patient profile, physician dose modification behavior, fulfilment trends seen in specialty pharmacy data
p
Decision Tree
We developed logistic and decision tree regression models using the number of patients discontinued (dependent variable) and different independent variables
p
Risk Score
Finally, we developed a risk score “1-5” (5 = high risk) for all patients in specialty pharmacy data, shared scores with field teams
Client Impact
