order to select the best available option. Some
may not be aware of all the services available As
a result, patients often touch multiple services
at a cost to NHS

• Chronic diseases are thought to be the cause of
  twice the number of deaths of infectious diseases
• Chronic disease affects not only the elderly. The
  number of cases reported in populations under 60
  years is increasing year on year
• 80 of chronic disease deaths are believed to
  occur in low or middle income countries in part
  as a result of globalisation
• Chronic Non-Communicable Disease is a global
  burden across age groups

• The total health care costs of heart disease and
  stroke in the United States, including health
  care expenditures and lost productivity from
  deaths and disability, is projected to be more
  than 475 billion in 2009
• Americans make more than 72 million doctor visits
  every year for treatment and management of
  cardiovascular diseases.
• Incidents of Chronic Non-Communicable Disease are
  rising at a growing cost to the global health
  economy
