"The Atlas of Heart Disease Hospitalizations Among Medicare Beneficiaries provides for the first time county-level maps of heart disease hospitalizations for blacks, Hispanics, and whites ages 65 and older. Geographic Information Systems provide increasingly important analytic tools to examine public health outcomes and were used in this Atlas to document the large geographic and population-based disparities that exist in heart disease hospitalizations across the United States. This information is critical for health professionals working at local, state, and national levels to eliminate geographic, racial, and ethnic disparities in heart disease hospitalizations." - P. iii.
The Atlas of Heart Disease Hospitalizations Among Medicare Beneficiaries is the sixth in a series of CDC atlases related to cardiovascular disease. It is the second atlas focusing on cardiovascular related hospitalizations in the Medicare population. It was developed in collaboration with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, and includes county-level maps of heart disease hospitalizations by heart disease-subtype, race/ethnicity, and discharge status. Maps of hospital facilities and heart disease specialists are also included. In this section you can: * View/download the Atlas of Heart Disease Hospitalizations Among Medicare Beneficiaries in PDF format, and order a hard copy of the Atlas. * View interactive state maps of the burden of heart disease hospitalizations among Medicare beneficiaries.

"In addition, the authors would like to acknowledge the exceptional work performed by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) staff in maintaining the CMS data files. Without the rigorous and systematic recording and categorizing of the information from Medicare claims nationwide, the production of the Atlas of Heart Disease Hospitalizations Among Medicare Beneficiaries would not be possible." - Acknowledgements
