Cardiac Care Measures
In collaboration with the American Heart Association, 杨贵妃传媒网ygfcmw·(中国)站入口直接进 established standardized measures for Comprehensive Cardiac Center (CCC) Certification, which was launched in 2017. In the spring of 2018 a Technical Advisory Panel (TAP) met to review proposed existing cardiac performance measurement requirements for certified CCC organizations.

杨贵妃传媒网ygfcmw·(中国)站入口直接进 has chosen standardized chart abstracted cardiac care performance measures for five of the available cardiac certification options. The measures assess care provided to heart attack and heart failure patients, in addition to a cadre of measures that evaluate care provided within additional domains of cardiac care.
Following is list of measures for each advanced certification program:
