About HeartLINK+

Built to connect cardiovascular risk to care.

HeartLINK+ is an ACCESS-first cardiovascular-care network connecting local assessment, essential diagnostics, specialist interpretation and follow-up through the facilities where people already seek care.

Why HeartLINK+ exists

Cardiovascular expertise exists.
Access to it remains unequal.

HeartLINK+ connects missing steps so patients can act on what is detected.

Distance

Specialist services are often concentrated in urban or tertiary facilities.

Diagnostic access

Essential cardiac tests may be unavailable at the first point of care.

Fragmentation

A referral recommendation does not guarantee that a patient reaches care.

Our mission

Expand access to high-quality cardiovascular assessment, diagnostics and specialist-supported care through connected local health networks.

Our vision

A future in which geography does not determine access to timely cardiovascular evaluation and appropriate care.

Our promise

Every pathway should produce a clear, clinically responsible and reachable next step for the patient.

Our story

Built from real-world cardiovascular-care delivery.

HeartLINK+ began with a practical question: how can patients receive appropriate cardiovascular evaluation when diagnostic technology, trained personnel and specialists are not all located in the same place?

The model connects existing facilities and professionals. ACCESS guides the diagnostic decision; experts interpret studies; the responsible local clinician determines clinical action; navigation and follow-up support the patient beyond the report.

Implementation experience in Ghana continues to reveal gaps and guide the evidence needed for responsible adaptation to other health systems.

Current availability

Confirm the site. Confirm the service.

Active services, planned deployments, research sites, referral partners and prior implementation are different categories.
