As a class I treatment, cardiac rehabilitation is an integral component to the continuum of care for patients with cardiovascular disease. Despite the well documented benefits, cardiac rehabilitation continues to be vastly underutilized. By implementing basic core components identified by AACVPR, cardiac rehab programs can ensure they are offering care that aligns with industry standards which can in turn increase referral, enrollment and graduation rates. Medical surveillance, using people, science and technology, will ensure cardiac rehab programs maintain compliance with these core components while ensuring safety, efficacy and efficiency.
