CRD SUMMARY:

This well-conducted review concluded that less cost sharing for patients with chronic diseases could improve their adherence, but the effects on clinical and economic outcomes were uncertain. These conclusions reflect the limitations in the evidence and are likely to be reliable, but the findings may have limited generalisability to non-insurance-based health care systems.
