Engaging primary care practices in rural N.C.: Lessons from the Heart Health Now study
February 18, 2020 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am
Event Navigation
Cardiovascular event rates can be 50% higher in rural N.C. counties than in metropolitan areas.
With little informatics support, Heart Health Now engaged 219 small primary care practices in N.C. to help implement new evidence-based strategies to reduce cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk.
Samuel Cykert will discuss key implementation lessons and study findings from this statewide project and highlight emerging topics in the field.
