plan to prioritize heart disease programs this year
Heart disease is widely recognized as a crisis — but under-prioritized.

The cost of inaction is growing.

Heart disease and its risk factors drive:
Preventable hospitalizations and readmissions
Rising medical and pharmacy spend
Declining quality performance and avoidable revenue loss
Widening inequities across vulnerable populations
When heart health is managed reactively instead of proactively, costs escalate — and outcomes suffer.

Medication management is one of the most effective ways to reduce heart disease risk.

Infographic showing Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the US
3 in 4 adults treated for high blood pressure are not on the right medication or dose
Infographic showing 56% of adults have high blood pressure and/or high cholesterol
44% of people with high blood pressure don’t take medications as prescribed
Infographic showing $142B is the annual cost of
heart disease

Poor adherence leads to $3,900 per person, per year in avoidable costs for employers and taxpayers alike
Better medication management prevents events before they happen.
