Abstract: A method of measuring a user's adherence to a medication schedule is described. The method includes the steps of tracking the time between medication doses, alerting the user when it is time to take a medication dose, tracking the elapsed time between the alert and when the user takes the medication dose, and comparing the elapsed time to a scoring metric to calculate a score, wherein the score is representative of the user's adherence to the medication schedule. An automated system for measuring a user's adherence to a medication schedule is also described. The system includes a computing device that executes a software application that includes a tracking mechanism that alerts the user when a next medication dose is to be taken and tracks the amount of elapsed time from the alert to the time that the user takes the medication dose, and a scoring mechanism that compares the amount of elapsed time to a scoring metric to determine a medication adherence score.
