i2 – Investing in InnovationsWil YuWil.Yu@HHS.govAdam WongOffice of the National Coordinator 5

i2 Goals•  Better Health, Better Care, Better Value through Quality Improvement –  Further the mission of the Department of Health and Human Services –  Highlight programs, activities, and issues of concern•  Spur Innovation and Highlight Excellence –  Motivate, inspire, and lead•  Community building – Development of ecosystem•  Stimulate private sector investment 6

What is Million Hearts?•  Goal: Prevent 1 million heart attacks and strokes over the next 5 years•  Engage public and private sector partners in a coordinated approach to: – Reduce the number of people who need treatment – Improve the quality of treatment for those who need it – Maximize current investments in cardiovascular health

Heart disease and strokes are leading killers in the U.S. •  Cause 1 of every 3 deaths •  More than 2 million heart attacks and strokes occur every year; 800,000 die – Leading cause of preventable death among people <65 •  Treatment accounts for about $1 of every $6 spent on health care •  Accounts for the largest single portion of racial disparities in life expectancy

Key components of Million Hearts•  Clinical Prevention – improving care of the ABCS through: – Focus – simplify and align quality measures; emphasize importance of improved care of the ABCS – Health IT – use electronic health records to improve care and enable quality improvement through clinical decision support, patient reminders, registries, and technical assistance – Care innovations – team-based care, interventions to promote medication adherence•  Community prevention – reducing the need for treatment through: – Prevention of tobacco use – Improved nutrition – decrease sodium and artificial trans fat consumption

Clinical prevention Focus on ABCS•  Improving management of ABCS can prevent more deaths than other clinical preventive services•  Increasing utilization of these simple interventions could save more than 100,000 lives a year – Patients reduce risk of heart attack or stroke by taking aspirin as appropriate – Treating high blood pressure and high cholesterol substantially and quickly reduces mortality among high-risk patients – Even brief smoking cessation advice from clinicians doubles likelihood of successful quit attempt – use of cessation medications increases quit rates further

The Challenge: “Develop an application that activates and empowers patients to get healthy and improve their heart health” • These apps should use evidenced based resources to help improve cardiovascularhealth with a particular focus on the ABCS. • Apps should incorporate patient-entered data and provided targetedrecommendations. • Examples include: education and resources to improve on ABCs, directing users toheart healthy activities and places to eat, and linking to online communities.
