What is credo? • Identify evidence-based principles of provider education that lead to equitable CVD care and outcomes • Recognize and facilitate dissemination of educational activities that meet credo principles • Develop, implement, and publish a PI-CME educational activity that targets specific CVD clinical area using ACC’s NCDR™
The Case for Addressing CVD Disparities • CVD disparities exist and lead to avoidable, premature morbidity and mortality • Evidence-based care can reverse CVD disparities • Tools for redressing disparities are consistent with providing patient-centered, evidenced-based care • Trends in population and cardiology compound CVD disparities
Increasing Diversity in the US 20082050
What are the keys to reducing disparities? • Performance measure-based quality improvement • Provider/patient education • Team care
Evidence-based Reduction in Health Disparities Data show: • Across health conditions QI and cultural competency training can increase quality, provider knowledge/attitudes, and patient satisfaction/health • In CVD, physician education necessary but not sufficient; team care and patient education can be effective • In acute hospital ACS care, QI can improve quality and reduce disparities AHRQ, Evidence Report/Technology Assessment: Strategies for Improving Minority Healthcare Quality, January 2004.
