Look for Atrial Fib Patients Who May Need Anticoagulation
Many of your atrial fibrillation patients aren't getting appropriate anticoagulation...with warfarin or a direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC).

Look for atrial fib patients who may need an anticoagulant. Patients are likely to benefit if they are age 65 or older...or have a prior stroke or TIA, hypertension, diabetes, or heart failure.
