Summary
Building Electronic Tools To Enhance and Reinforce CArdiovascular REcommendations - Heart Failure (BETTER CARE-HF) is a pragmatic, cluster-randomized, three-arm intervention trial that will compare the effectiveness of two targeted clinical decision support (CDS) intervention tools (best practice alert (BPA) and automated in-basket massage) to inform providers when a patient with heart failure and reduce ejection fraction (HFrEF) is not on appropriate medical therapy, as compared to usual care.
