Summary

This study is a pragmatic randomized clinical trial to determine the effectiveness of two strategies of early follow-up in adults after hospitalization for heart failure: telephone follow-up with a heart failure care manager vs. in-person clinic visit with their primary care provider. The primary outcomes during 30-day follow-up will include readmission for heart failure, death and readmission for any cause. The study team aims to randomly assign 2400 patients during a 15-month period in a 1-to-1 ratio to either an initial structured telephone call with a heart failure care manager or an in-person primary care clinic visit within 7 days of discharge. A secondary goal is to increase the rate of any follow-up within 7 days of discharge to greater than 90 percent among all eligible patients.
