Summary

This is a multi-center, randomized quality improvement project. At least 200 statin-naïve patients without a history of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease with incidental coronary artery calcium (CAC) on a prior non-gated chest CT will be enrolled across the Stanford Healthcare System and the Palo Alto Veteran's Affairs Healthcare System. Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 fashion to notification or usual care arms. The primary aim of this project is to estimate the increase in 6-month statin prescription among statin-naïve patients without a history of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease with incidental CAC on a non-gated chest CT who are randomized to receive notification of their findings vs. usual care.
