1 Design of a multicohort evaluation of statin adherence after the start of 2 cost-sharing policies Sebastian Schneeweiss, et al. Circulation 2007;115:2128-2135

2 Baseline Covariates for 3 Cohorts of New Statin Users Sebastian Schneeweiss, et al. Circulation 2007;115:2128-2135

3 Adherence for the baseline, copayment, and coinsurance cohorts showing a sudden decline in adherence 100 days (equal to the median prescription supply) after the policy changes Sebastian Schneeweiss, et al. Circulation 2007;115:2128-2135

4 New initiations of statin therapy after AMI at baseline and under a copayment and coinsurance policy Sebastian Schneeweiss, et al. Circulation 2007;115:2128-2135

5 Independent Risk Factors for Discontinuing Statin Therapy, From Logistic Regression Analysis* S. Schneeweiss, et al. Circulation 2007;115:2128-2135 CHF indicates congestive heart failure. *Each factor was adjusted for all other factors and represents independent effect estimates. The effects of patient risk factors are therefore independent of the policy effects in this analysis. †The 100% coinsurance policy affected a fair proportion of elderly beneficiaries because the policy required deductible payments that were based on income. Before this deductible was reached, patients had to pay 100% of costs out of pocket.
