Coronary artery bypass grafting achieved 82% participation, whereas heart failure patients exhibited the lowest uptake across clinical indications at only 11%.
Analysis of health insurance claims records calls for targeted referral strategies to improve overall enrollment across high-risk cardiovascular disease groups.
