Innovation, Digital Health, & Partnerships for Hypertension Control

DATE:  June 22, 2023
TIME:  12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. (Pacific)

Hypertension (HTN) is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and stroke, both of which are leading causes of death in the United States. Yet, hypertension is the most modifiable risk factor for CVD. Nearly half of U.S. adults (~46%, or 116 million) have hypertension. Achieving HTN control often requires a systems approach that includes patient, provider, care team, and, at times, community engagement for care optimization. In this webinar, we will hear promising practices to achieve hypertension control amongst health center patients. The presenters will share approaches to engaging patents, care teams, and communities to improve hypertension control rates. Promising practices shared will include ACTIVATE, a digital health platform for remote patient monitoring implemented with health coaching and digital literacy, and community-based partnerships for achieving hypertension control.

This lunch and learn webinar is part of a 3-part webinar series.
