Brief Summary: The purpose of this research study is to learn about ways to help children and adults with sickle cell disease who are taking the medication, hydroxyurea.
Detailed Description: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited chronic multi-organ system disorder that affects approximately 100,000 individuals in the United States, mostly belonging to minority, under-served populations. SCD is associated with substantial morbidity, premature mortality, individual suffering, health care costs and loss of productivity. Hydroxyurea (HU) the only disease modifying therapy for SCD is efficacious in reducing complications such as pain crisis and acute chest syndrome and improving survival. It is however, vastly underutilized and poorly adhered to because of barriers at the health care system, provider, treatment, socioeconomic, and patient levels. The investigator's overarching hypothesis is that barriers to acceptance and adherence to HU are multi-factorial and that a structured set of interventions can lead to improved adherence to medication and patient centered outcomes.
