Riverview Health Achieves American College of Cardiology's NCDR ACTION Registry Platinum Performance Award

August 16, 2018

Riverview Health is one of only five hospitals in the state to achieve American College of Cardiology’s NCDR ACTION Registry Platinum Performance Achievement Award, the highest level award possible.

“We’re honored to achieve this award five years in a row as it truly reflects the diligent and thoughtful care our whole team provides to our cardiology patients,” said Angie Bolinger, director of Cardiovascular, Infusion & Outpatient Clinical Services.

This award recognizes a hospital's success in implementing a higher standard of care for heart attack patients by meeting aggressive performance measures as outlined by the American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association clinical guidelines. The implementation of these guidelines requires successful coordination of the Heart & Vascular team and emergency personnel, and it’s a critical step in saving the lives and improving outcomes of heart attack patients.
