Summary

Most care for chronic conditions is provided by primary care clinicians. Although Virginia ranks 4th among the 50 states in average income, it ranks 27th in mortality due to heart attacks and strokes. The scope and focus of this project will materially improve the rates of screening and treatment of risk factors for heart attacks and strokes, and will give primary care clinicians the tools and training to improve the care of other chronic illnesses and the delivery of preventive services.
