Introduction: Cardiac rehabilitation and patient education are the two parallel components in the management of coronary heart disease. Although, it is recommended strongly to join an outpatient cardiac rehabilitation program, the enrollment rates are always low. The role of structured patient education in increasing the enrollment in an outpatient cardiac rehabilitation program and its impact on the disability profile of conservatively treated medically stable postmyocardial infarction individuals, after joining and completing the rehabilitation program has not been studied. Aim: To study the impact of structured patient education and outpatient cardiac rehabilitation program on the disability profile of conservatively treated medically stable postmyocardial infarction individuals. Materials and Methods: The study is a mixed method design and will be conducted in two steps. Step 1: It is a qualitative study in which a structured patient education program will be developed based on the framework given by the working Group of Exercise Rehabilitation and Sports (GERS). Step 2: Implementation of the developed program and an outpatient cardiac rehabilitation program in an open-label non randomised clinical trial. Conclusion: The findings of this study will evaluate the need for the development of structured patient education programs for coronary artery disease patients, which may increase the enrollment rates in outpatient cardiac rehabilitation programs and thereby, reducing their disability.

270 Background: National Quality Strategy set forth by the Department of Health and Human Services emphasizes that each person and family is engaged as partners in their care. Appropriate use of quality measures can serve as a means of achieving this. Studies have shown that patient engagement can lead to improved healthcare outcomes, lower resource utilization, and reduced costs. As such, Avalere sought to identify oncology-related quality measures that address patient and family engagement, and determine ways to advance engagement in oncology through the use of quality measures. Methods: Avalere assessed publicly available sources to identify person and family engagement measures related to oncology, including measures related to patient education, care preferences, and care planning. Avalere also assessed the current use of these measures in CMS’ quality programs. Results: Avalere identified six oncology-specific measures related to person and family engagement. One of the measures is included in CMS’ Physician Quality Reporting System and the Electronic Health Record Incentive Programs. Three measures identified are related to documenting patients’ preferences during end of life care, two are related to care planning for pain and depression, respectively, and one is related to patient education on treatment. None of the measures are related to specific cancers. Conclusions: Avalere found lack of measures related to patient and family engagement in oncology. Given the importance of patient and family engagement during the course of disease management, opportunity exists to improve oncology care quality through measurement and evaluation of engagement. Oncology patients’ quality of care can be improved through data support, stakeholder buy-in, standardized methodology for measuring engagement, evidence linking engagement and outcomes, and implementation measures in incentive programs.
