H. Implementation This CPG and algorithm are designed to be adapted by individual healthcare providers with consideration of unique patient considerations and preferences, local needs, and resources. The algorithm serves as a tool to prompt providers to consider key decision points in the care for a patient with dyslipidemia. The Work Group submits suggested performance metrics for the VA and DoD to use when assessing the implementation of this guideline. Robust implementation will require wide dissemination through publication in the medical literature, online access, educational programs, and ideally electronic medical record programming in the form of clinical decision support tools at the point of care.
