Landmark Initiative: Hypertension Control

AHW's Hypertension Control Landmark Initiative

1.4 million adults in Wisconsin have hypertension. Of these, less than half have achieved blood pressure control. One study of blood pressure control rates across states ranks Wisconsin last (i.e., lowest control rate among 50 states). The result is thousands of preventable strokes, heart attacks, and premature deaths in our state.

Through this Landmark Initiative, AHW seeks to tap medical, community, and public health partners to identify and implement effective interventions to educate and motivate people with high blood pressure to successfully monitor and manage their disease.
