This is an example of an AI-powered conversational survey about Medication Adherence for patients—see and try the example now.
Creating an effective patient medication adherence survey is tricky. Most surveys miss why patients struggle to stick to medications or fail to ask the right follow-ups.
At Specific, we know how to uncover real patient insights with smart, conversational AI surveys—every tool here is part of what makes us a leader in this field.
What is a conversational survey and why AI makes it better for patients
Traditional surveys often feel cold, rigid, or repetitive—they ask everyone the same questions, no matter what. When it comes to patient medication adherence, that approach fails to capture personal challenges, reasons for missing doses, or emotional factors. Most patients abandon these forms halfway through or give incomplete answers. Worse, healthcare providers miss the critical details hidden between the lines.
This is why AI-driven conversational surveys change the game. Instead of a one-size-fits-all list, the AI becomes a skilled interviewer, adapting questions in real-time. With patients, this is crucial—a conversation feels natural and empathetic, making it far more likely for someone to open up. In fact, AI surveys have been shown to achieve 70–80% completion rates, compared to 45–50% for traditional surveys, as the AI adjusts based on a patient’s responses and keeps them engaged [3].
Here’s a quick comparison:
Manual Surveys | AI-Generated Surveys |
---|---|
Fixed questionnaire—little room to personalize | Adapts to each patient’s replies in real-time |
Patients drop out or give one-word answers | Friendly conversation draws out richer stories |
Time-consuming to create and analyze | AI builds and analyzes the survey for you |
Why use AI for patient surveys?
Higher completion rates: Engaging, adaptive conversations encourage patients to finish
Deeper insights: AI follow-ups uncover the “why” behind behavior
Time savings: Surveys are made, delivered, and analyzed—all automatically
The impact? We finally get the chance to understand why nearly one in four hospitalizations and up to 125,000 deaths occur each year in the U.S. alone due to medication non-adherence [1]. The costs aren’t just personal—they amount to between $100 billion and $300 billion in annual economic loss [2]. Good surveys lead to smart interventions—and better outcomes.

Automatic follow-up questions based on previous reply
One of the smartest features of Specific: our AI doesn’t just ask—you get intelligent, context-aware follow-ups in real time, like a savvy research expert. Instead of chasing busy patients for clarification later, the survey probes deeper on the spot. This matters: one vague patient reply could mean the difference between catching a dangerous side effect, or missing it entirely.
Patient: “I sometimes skip my meds.”
AI follow-up: “Thanks for sharing. Can you tell me what factors make you decide to skip—like side effects, forgetting, or anything else?”
Without a follow-up, you’d have no idea if the issue is cost, forgetfulness, fear of side effects, or something else.
The result? Clear, actionable insight that’s actually useful for care teams or research—not just a sea of one-word answers. These automated, on-the-fly follow-up questions make each survey a dynamic conversation. Want to experience how much richer your data can be? Try generating a survey on Specific.

That’s why this is called a conversational survey—it feels like a genuine conversation, not a rigid list of boxes to tick.
Easy editing, like magic
No more clunky forms or hours spent tweaking survey wording. With Specific’s AI survey editor, you just tell the system what you want changed in plain English. “Ask more about side effects,” or “Add a question on affordability”—and the AI instantly updates your survey for you, drawing on expert-level knowledge. Edit, iterate, or overhaul in seconds. Let the AI handle the tedious parts while you focus on what you want to learn.
Flexible delivery: landing page or in-product
Specific makes it effortless to get your survey to the right patients—wherever they are. You’ve got two powerful options:
Sharable landing page surveys: Perfect for patients outside your digital product—such as after a doctor’s visit, by email, or within a care portal. Just send the link—done.
In-product surveys: For healthcare apps or web platforms, you can deliver surveys right inside your own software. Reach patients while they’re managing medications, capturing insights when they’re most relevant.
Medication adherence is highly contextual, so it often makes sense to mix both delivery types—landing pages for broader outreach, in-product for timely, contextual responses at the point of care. Explore each method further to fit your workflow and patient needs.

When responses come in, Specific’s AI survey analysis features go to work instantly. You get summarized insights, automated topic detection, and the chance to chat directly with AI about the results.
