Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death for men and women in the United States. NQF’s cardiovascular measures portfolio is one of the largest. In the Fall 2018 cycle of this project, the Standing Committee evaluated one newly submitted measure and three measures undergoing maintenance review against NQF’s standard evaluation criteria. The Standing Committee recommended all four measures for endorsement.
