Blood pressure toolkit helps practices lower hypertension rates

May 16, 2023

With more than 40 percent of American adults suffering from hypertension, Aledade created an evidence-based blood pressure management toolkit to help lower patient readings.

This toolkit complements the treating clinician’s judgment and decision-making with the goal of proactively addressing uncontrolled blood pressure and reducing health disparity in patients. A recent survey with practices and community health centers using our 2021 Blood Pressure Toolkits showed an improvement in the accuracy of blood pressure readings, enhanced identification of patients at hypertension risk and an increased 30-day follow-up visit rate.
