This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing a new approach called Heart-to-Heart (H2H) to help people who have had a heart attack or cardiac event get connected to cardiac rehabilitation programs. The program pairs you with a trained community health coach who understands your neighborhood and financial situation. The coach will call or video chat with you to answer questions, help you navigate the healthcare system, and support you in joining a rehabilitation program.
Many people with limited income face barriers to joining cardiac rehabilitation programs after a heart event, even though these programs can significantly improve their recovery and health. This study wants to see if having a dedicated health coach who understands your community can make it easier to access and stick with this important care.

You will meet with a trained health coach for 4 to 8 coaching sessions over 3 months, delivered by phone or video chat. The coach will help educate you about cardiac rehabilitation, connect you with family and community support, and guide you through signing up for your rehabilitation program. You will also complete brief surveys about your health and experiences at the start of the study, at 3 months, and at 6 months, and the research team will review your medical records.
