Summary

This study tested a program to improve heart failure care for Black and Latinx patients who are often treated on general medicine floors instead of cardiology. The program included better treatment plans, cardiology checkups, and help with transportation. 79 patients took part to see if these changes could reduce readmissions and improve follow-up care.
