Mobile Cardiovascular Risk Service Trial

Risk factors for cardiovascular disease are poorly controlled even for patients who frequently visit their physician, leading to large numbers of preventable cardiovascular events such as heart attacks and strokes. Research from integrated healthcare systems suggests that risk factors can be controlled better and treatment strategies for cardiovascular disease can be markedly improved by using a centralized cardiovascular risk service (CVRS) managed by pharmacists. The investigators are confident that a pharmacist-managed mHealth CVRS can become a strategy in un-integrated healthcare settings to markedly reduce cardiovascular events in the United States.
