Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is of special interest to healthcare professionals and policymakers alike, due to both cost and efficiency burdens – and there is lack of ownership and accountability with these issues. Projected to cost the US healthcare system $57 billion annually by 2030[1]. 20% of HF patients are also readmitted within 30 days of discharge. These persistent issues demand novel evaluations to improve heart failure management – specifically, evaluation of physician behavior at the population level.
