The American College of Cardiology's National Cardiovascular Data Registry (NCDR) is a valuable resource for measuring outcomes and identifying areas where quality care can be improved. The NCDR's data is utilized in pay-for-reporting and performance programs, helping to showcase the benefits and difficulties of incentive programs. The ACC has created eight cardiovascular registries, which go beyond data collection and form a network of healthcare providers dedicated to delivering evidence-based care, improving patient outcomes, and reducing healthcare expenses.
