The RA will review Computerized Patient Record System (CPRS) to confirm enrollment at the Durham VA Medical Center (DVAMC) or Raleigh Community Based Outpatient Clinic (CBOC), identify participants\' primary care provider and conduct a preliminary medical record review of the exclusion criteria listed above.\n\nAn introductory recruitment letter signed by the patient\'s provider will be sent to these participants.\n\nTelephone Screening:\n\nThe RA will call the participants between 1 and 2 weeks later to assess interest and eligibility using the telephone screening script. During this telephone call, the RA will ask permission to conduct the telephone screening to further evaluate the participants\' eligibility to participate in the study. These screening questions are being asked because exclusion criteria may not be accurately reflected in the VA medical record. If participants agree to meet with study team to further discuss the project they will be scheduled for an interview. If requested, participant will be sent an appointment reminder letter signed by the study principal investigator and/or project coordinator.\n\nAll participants will be sent reminder letters up to 3 weeks prior to their scheduled 3 and 6 month follow-up appointments.\n\nConsent Process:\n\nAt this interview, the patient will be given greater detail about the study, and if agreeable, will provide written informed consent. Participants who consent to participate in the study and agree to be digitally audio recorded will also have complete form 10-3203 "Consent for use of picture and /or voice" at baseline.\n\nInterview Procedures:\n\nRAs will obtain the participants\' outcome values (i.e., BP) from the clinical record at baseline, at 3 month follow-up. This information will be double-entered into an application on the Health Services Research \\& Development (HSRD) VA Server. At baseline and 3-month follow-up contacts, participants will also undergo an interview to determine secondary outcome variables including self-reported medication adherence and perceptions of the intervention. The baseline interview will be conducted in person if possible, however, at the 3 month follow-up appointment the interview will be conducted by telephone. The RA\'s will work with patients to be seen in a 6 week window around the original follow-up appointment. Pill refill will be calculated for all individuals at 6 months.\n\nParticipant Contacts In-person meeting - Baseline After the consent process, at the baseline interview, a research assistant(RA) will conduct the outcome assessment procedures, which includes asking the participant questions about their age,race, medical history, self reported adherence to cardiovascular medications and their understanding about the risk of cardiovascular disease. The RA will also ask questions about their lifestyle, and quality of life. Participants who qualify for enrollment and provide informed consent will meet with the research pharmacist for education use of the Meducation Calendar.\n\n3 month follow-up interview. A research assistant will contact participant via phone to determine secondary outcome variables including self reported medication adherence to cardiovascular medications. The entire interview should take no more than 30 minutes.\n\nOptional Qualitative: 3 month phone interview: For selected intervention participants only the RA will conduct a questionnaire about the participant\'s perception to determine which aspects of the Meducation Calendar intervention were most helpful for participants and which aspects need revision. Participants who agreed to the qualitative interview during the consent process will be asked during the 3 month interview to confirm their continued desire to participate in the audio recorded phone interview if selected. This visit should take no more than 30 minutes. Those selected to participate will be scheduled to complete the qualitative interview over the phone within 15 days from the time they complete the intervention and interview. The qualitative interview will be audio recorded digitally on a VA owned and configured computer and later transcribed using VA owned computer software. Names will not be associated with the audio recordings. After all recordings have been analyzed and coded, recordings will be destroyed in accordance with VA Information Security procedures. This phone call for the optional qualitative interview should take no more than 30 minutes.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Enrolled in one of three DVAMC Primary Care Clinics affiliated with the hospital for at least one year;\n* At least one visit to a primary care provider (PCP) at Durham VAMC associated primary care clinics in the previous 12 months;\n* Outpatient diagnostic code for hypertension (\\> 140/90), diabetes and/or hypercholesterolemia\n* Prescription for metoprolol tartrate (twice a day beta blocker, most common 2 day medication prescribed in the VA)\n* Baseline Medication Possession Ratio (MPR) of \\< 80% indicating medication non adherence\n* More than 9 active medications.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* diagnosed with metastatic cancer,\n* diagnosed with dementia documented in medical record,\n* active diagnosis of psychosis documented in medical record with admission with last 30 days\n* participating in another clinical trial,\n* not currently receiving care at the Durham VAMC\n* resident of a nursing home,\n* hard time seeing type/printing on books, magazines articles, etc.\n* hard time hearing or speaking on the telephone\n* limited/no access to telephone\n* currently a patient in the primary care pharmacist medication management clinic at Durham VAMC\n* plans to move medical care from DVAMC in next 12 months'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT01744392', 'briefTitle': 'Medication Adherence With Polyglot Meducation', 'organization': {'class': 'FED', 'fullName': 'Durham VA Medical Center'}, 'officialTitle': "Evaluate Changes in Medication Adherence and Patient Perspective of Polyglot Systems, Inc's Meducation Technology", 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '01658'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'education intervention', 'description': 'The intervention provides a personalized Meducation calendar to all patients enrolled in the study (identified in package as Example Calendar).
