Expertise and Research Interests

Dr. Krumholz conducts research that is focused on improving the care and outcomes of people with, or at risk for, cardiovascular disease. He is currently leading initiatives through the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to develop national mortality measures for public reporting of hospital performance. In an effort to investigate ways that hospitals can improve outcomes through decreasing door-to-balloon times, he initiated and chairs the steering committee of D2B: An Alliance for Quality, an international campaign launched by the American College of Cardiology to implement key evidence-based strategies to achieve guideline recommended door-to-balloon times. Dr. Krumholz also serves as Principal Investigator on two multi-center projects sponsored by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute: VIRGO, an investigation of issues surrounding the care and outcomes of young women with acute myocardial infarction; and a study examining the effect of a telemonitoring strategy on the outcomes of patients with heart failure.

Other Expertise

Academic Experience:
