- the regimen may be a medication regimen, an exercise regimen, a combination of medication and exercise regimen, etc.
- medication adherence packaging is transformed into a digital tool that assists in taking medications on schedule and managing activities of daily life by facilitating communication between users (e.g., patients) and third parties, such as, for example, personal caregivers (e.g., carers), loved ones, spouses, family members, friends, physicians, pharmacists, among others.
- a wearable receiver e.g., electronic patch
- a person taking medications is worn by a person taking medications.
- the term "medication” includes ingestible preparations such as pharmaceuticals, such as prescribed or over-the-counter preparations; vitamins; placebos, etc. Medications may be provided in one or more form factors, e.g., pills, tablets, capsules, gel capsules, soft gel capsules, etc.
- the wearable receiver detects a communication from an ingestible device such as an implantable device, an implantable pulse generator such as a pacemaker, a stent, an implantable transceiver, an ingestible event marker (I EM) device, an ingestible RFID device, or an ingestible coil or antenna device.
- an ingestible device such as an implantable device, an implantable pulse generator such as a pacemaker, a stent, an implantable transceiver, an ingestible event marker (I EM) device, an ingestible RFID device, or an ingestible coil or antenna device.
- I EM ingestible event marker
- a microelectronic circuit is associated with a medication, e.g., a medicinal dose, to indicate the occurrence of a medication event, for example.
- the wearable patch device is worn by the person taking the medication to detect the ingestion of the medicinal dose comprising an IEM device embedded therein.
- the wearable receiver is worn by the person taking the medication to detect the ingestion of the medicinal dose comprising an IEM device embedded therein.
- an adherence package according to the present disclosure comprises, in addition to the medication, a wearable receiver and an IEM device.
- the subscription information system enables focus on care management of and communication with the patient.
- Various aspects of the system may be configured to convey trends in activities of daily life, including activity, rest, and medication taking. Also, in other aspects, the system may be configured to assist managing activities of daily life, including taking the appropriate medications on schedule and managing amount and timing of activities and rest.
- the system may also be configured to facilitate communication between patients and designated third parties.
- the system may be configured for patients who are primarily responsible for their own care, taking multiple medications, and who are candidates for adherence support.
- the system may be configured for patients with personal caregivers who assist with or oversee their care.
- the system may be configured for patients who are capable of using, or have a caregiver capable of using smartphone technology.
- the subscription information system may be based on adherence packaging products already available on the market. Pharmacies may provide these adherence packages where the pharmacist pre-fills a set of blister packs with a person's medications at different dosage times for a predetermined period such as a day, a week, a month, and so forth.
- the present disclosure adds one more component, an ingestible device, into at least one blister.
- a medicinal dose e.g., a tablet
- the medicinal dose includes an event marker or other ingestible device such as an IEM device, RFID device, etc.
- a placebo is added to at least one of the blisters, where the placebo includes an ingestible device such as an IEM device, RFID device, etc.
- the subscription information system according to the present disclosure is based on a predetermined adherence packaging form factor and assists a person in taking medication on schedule and managing their activities of daily life. Activities of daily life, among other things, include getting up and moving around, taking medications, ensuring they get adequate rest. One way of assisting with these activities is by facilitating communication between the patient and their caregivers. It will be appreciated, that the subscription information system according to the present disclosure is not intended to replace other forms of communication between the patient and third parties. It is meant, however, to facilitate communication and to provide a layer of information that a patient, carer, etc., would not otherwise have and to focus on interpersonal communication with people on things that are not tactical, generally speaking. Thus, for example, when a relative calls an ill person, the conversation can focus on some normal daily activity such as the book she is reading rather than focusing on whether the person took their medications or whether they exercised for ten minutes on that day.
- the subscription information system provides a graphical user interface (GUI).
- GUI graphical user interface
- the GUI is associated with the mobile device and provides a personal information stream which is effectively a timeline for any given day in the form of an activity indicator, e.g., displayed as an "activity ribbon," that shows in a simple and concise manner how the person is spending each moment of the day. For example, generally, people will spend a lot of time sleeping, then get up to run some errands, and maybe rest in their chair and watch television when they are done. Later they may get up and go for a walk that elevates their heart rate, get a little exercise, and then return home to sit, rest, and eventually go to sleep.
- an activity indicator e.g., displayed as an "activity ribbon”
- an activity ribbon is provided to show how a person transitions between different states throughout a predetermined period such as day or night. Accordingly, at a glance, the person can readily tell if, in a given night, they have been really disruptive and getting up to go to the bathroom multiple times, or if they tossed and turned all night and not really sleeping restfully.
- This information can be obtained just by looking at the state of an activity ribbon as displayed on a mobile device display GUIs.
- the medication events timeline associated with the person can be shown below the activity ribbon along a running time line. Accordingly, the subscription information system according to the present disclosure presents the scheduled medication times as one set of icons and the actual detected medication ingestion times by another set of icons. A person can visually correlate the scheduled versus actual medication times without judgment as presented by the GUI. In this manner, the absence of judgment may enhance usability of the system which, in turn, optimizes adherence to various regimens.
- the subscription information system according to the present disclosure provides certain value propositions across the stakeholders, e.g., for the patient, the caregiver, the physician, and the pharmacy.
- the subscription information system according to the present disclosure provides personalized data- driven feedback notifications to help the patient manage his or her daily life.
- the system further provides earlier detection of negative trends, easier communication with personal physicians, and decreased isolation via an enhanced sense of connectedness.
- the system may provide the patient with better quality relationships with caregivers and with less focus on tactical care needs.
- use of the system may result in significant cost savings as a result of adherence to medication regimens, e.g., costs otherwise incurred due to non-adherence such as the cost of treating escalated illnesses, etc.
- the subscription information system according to the present disclosure provides reassurance that a loved one is doing okay.
- Personalized data-driven notifications are set as per personal thresholds. This also leads to better quality relationships with patients with less focus on tactical care needs.
- the subscription information system provides improved adherence to medication by the patient and to increased prescriptions.
- the system also provides consumer pay, subscription- based mobile phone applications, premium priced adherence packaging services, and increased share of care-at-home services.
- the system provides increased consumer loyalty, store traffic and retail cross-selling and new ways to partner with local trusts and health authorities, among other things.

- the surface of the first material 5504 is not planar, but rather an irregular surface. The irregular surface increases the surface area of the material and, hence, the area that comes in contact with the conducting fluid.
- the material 5504 at the surface of the first material 5504, there is chemical reaction between the material 5504 and the surrounding conducting fluid such that mass is released into the conducting fluid.
- mass refers to protons and neutrons that form a substance.
- One example includes the instant where the material is CuCI and when in contact with the conducting fluid, CuCI becomes Cu (solid) and CI- in solution. The flow of ions into the conduction fluid is via ion paths.

Also, the control device 5508 can vary the level of the ionic exchange rate or the magnitude of the current flow while keeping the duration near constant. Thus, using various combinations of changes in duration and altering the rate or magnitude, the control device 5508 encodes information in the current flow or the ionic exchange. For example, the control device 5508 may use, but is not limited to any of the following techniques namely, Binary Phase-Shift Keying (PSK), Frequency Modulation (FM), Amplitude Modulation (AM), On-Off Keying, and PSK with On-Off Keying.

- Each component may be secured to the framework and/or to another component.
- the components on the surface of the support may be laid out in any convenient configuration. Where two or more components are present on the surface of the solid support, interconnects may be provided.
- the system 5500 controls the conductance between the dissimilar materials and, hence, the rate of ionic exchange or the current flow. Through altering the conductance in a specific manner the system is capable of encoding information in the ionic exchange and the current signature. The ionic exchange or the current signature is used to uniquely identify the specific system. Additionally, the system 5500 is capable of producing various different unique exchanges or signatures and, thus, provides additional information. For example, a second current signature based on a second conductance alteration pattern may be used to provide additional information, which information may be related to the physical environment. To further illustrate, a first current signature may be a very low current state that maintains an oscillator on the chip and a second current signature may be a current state at least a factor of ten higher than the current state associated with the first current signature.
