What are the recommendations needed to prioritize specialist MDT access for patients with heart failure?
The NICE guidelines on multi-morbidity recommend prioritizing specialist MDT access for those in greatest need who will gain the greatest benefit. This includes those who have just been discharged from hospital after an acute decompensation, as well as those who have multiple comorbidities and need more intensive support. It is also important to ensure that those who are stable are regularly reviewed in primary care, informed by their individual needs.
