@PennMedicine @RayaniAsma @ASPCardio @AHAScience @ACCinTouch @acog Additionally, we have developed an EMR based tracking system by clear visit types. Below is an example of the month by month tracking of volumes. This includes all patients seen in our Women’s CVH program per month. Thanks @ISHVnews for programmatic support and nurse navigation
