The HeartConnect recipes allow general practices to stratify their patient population for cardiovascular disease (CVD) management and prevention.
The recipes were developed as part of the HeartConnect program, an ongoing collaborative initiative between the Sydney North Health Network (SNHN) and MQ Health. The HeartConnect program aims to:
- improve outcomes for patients at risk of CVD by ensuring timely assessment, diagnosis, planning, management and treatment
- provide rapid and reliable access to cardiology services
- improve the experience of care for patients, GPs and cardiologists
- improve the population CVD risk profile in the Northern Sydney PHN region
- provide cost savings to the health system and society by reducing morbidity and mortality for patients presenting with CVD or risk factors
- evaluate the impact of quality improvement in general practice in collaboration with the Australian Institute of Health Innovation (AIHI) at Macquarie University.
