Three study authors to be recognized for abstract achievements at ACC Cardiovascular Summit
WASHINGTON (February 1, 2021) The American College of Cardiology has awarded three abstract awards to study authors for their posters presented at the Cardiovascular Summit Virtual. The award winners will be recognized at the Cardiovascular Summit, held virtually February 12-13, 2021. As the move toward value-based health care continues, it is critical that members of the cardiovascular community engage around quality improvement and cost reduction strategies. Posters sought to engage cardiovascular team members in the process of delivering value-based care; share practical
quality improvement and/or cost reduction strategies; encourage dissemination and implementation of evidence-based interventions that can be applied in clinical practice; and facilitate networking for those interested in value-based health care.
