Join the Million Hearts Collaborative

The Million Hearts® Cardiac Rehabilitation Collaborative (CRC) is a national forum of multi-disciplinary professionals taking action to achieve the national goal of 70% participation in CR for eligible patients by 2022. The CRC meets virtually on a quarterly basis to increase awareness about the value of CR, spread best practices to increase CR participation, build equity in CR referral and participation, enhance sustainability and innovation, and track progress toward their shared goal.

TAKEheart applies strategies from the Million Hearts®/AACVPR Cardiac Rehabilitation Change Package, a quality improvement action guide developed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the American Association of Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Rehabilitation (AACVPR).

The CRC is open to anyone interested in increasing patient participation in CR. All TAKEheart Partner Hospitals and Learning Community Hospitals are encouraged to join.
