Heart failure (HF) is a prevalent and complex condition that demands precise and efficient management. This paper delves into a critical, yet often under-recognised, challenge in HF care – the accurate coding of patients on HF registers. We explore how discrepancies in coding, including missing patients and incorrect HF type classifications, can significantly impact patient management.
