Indicator Categorizations

Indicators fall under two main categories: Cardiovascular Diseases and Risk Factors. Each category has subcategories and indicators are organized under the subcategories. A number of these indicators are designated as Priority Indicators and are associated with priority areas including ABCS, AHA 2020 Goals: Cardiovascular Health Metrics, Healthy People 2020, and Million Hearts®.
