Delivery of ASCVD Secondary Prevention Strategies for Rural Communities
Guest: Adelaide Arruda-Olson, M.D.
Host: Stephen Kopecky, M.D. (@DrSteveKopecky)
Dr. Steve Kopecky talks with Dr. Arruda-Olson on the Health of Rural Communities and how to improve our delivery of ASCVD preventive care to rural communities. They will define the rural communities and will talk about how to define secondary prevention. Discussion on why rural communities have more risk factors and how the barriers will be addressed in the Mayo Clinic Health Systems.
Joining us today to discuss Delivery of ASCVD Secondary Prevention Strategies for Rural Communities is Adelaide Arruda-Olson, M.D., Associate Professor of Medicine, Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Rochester, MN
Specific topics discussed:
- What is secondary prevention?
- How do you define rural communities?
- Rural communities have an older population, lower income, hospitals are sparse, with less providers & services offered. How can we overcome these issues when trying to achieve secondary prevention?
- Why do rural communities have more diabetes, obesity, HTN, tobacco, inactivity, obesity among children, drug overdose death?
- Rural communities tend to be whiter than Urban communities but 54% of native Americans live in rural communities. Are there any special approaches you have for the native American group?
- Why do rural communities have worse health outcomes?
- What are the SOLUTIONS?
- It appears that it needs to be multifactorial-not only providers, pharmacist APCs, ENTs, but also payment structures for rural care, Telehealth, bricks and mortar for hospitals, and certainly more research ?
