A Randomized Trial of Patient Financial Incentives to Reduce CVD Risk

Patients will receive an active intervention for 3 months followed by 3 months of observation. Incentives will be awarded at the end of the first 3 months, based on an improvement of at least 10 mg/dl in LDL relative to the patient's baseline LDL or achieving or sustaining LDL of 100, depending on baseline LDL and FRS. Adherence in all groups will be measured using Vitality GlowCaps as a recording device. Patients in all arms will be given the GlowCaps and instructions on use. Patients will receive adherence feedback electronically with daily lottery awards to match the timing of their task.
