A Heart Health Check is a comprehensive cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk assessment and ongoing management plan for people who do not have known CVD.
The burden of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in Australia is high. CVD causes one in four of all deaths, claims the life of one person every 12 minutes and accounts for 1,600 hospitalisations per day.
Two-thirds of Australian adults are living with at least three CVD risk factors, such as elevated blood pressure, cholesterol and diabetes.
It is estimated that one-fifth of Australian adults aged 30 to 74 years – or 1.4 million people – are at high risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next five years.
Heart health checks are highly recommended for all eligible patients.
