Description
Inclusion Criteria:
- Physicians: All primary care providers who have at least 5 patients who meet eligibility criteria will be eligible.
- Patients: 10-year CVD risk of between 10-20% who do not have an LDL below 140 mg/dl or 10-year CVD risk of at least 20% (including those with preexisting CHD) who do not have an LDL below 120 mg/dl will be the primary inclusion criteria. We have chosen to include all patients meeting these inclusion criteria regardless of their reported adherence to statins, as there clearly is room for improvement in the LDL through a combination of physician and patient actions.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patients will be excluded if they have a known allergy or history of side effects to statins, will not or cannot give consent, or have a markedly shortened life expectancy (diagnosis of metastatic cancer, end-stage renal disease on dialysis, or dementia).

No Intervention: Usual Care

Active Comparator: Physician Incentives
(with adherence feedback) Quarterly payments to physician combined based on patient achieving an LDL reduction of at least 10 mg/dl relative to baseline LDL or the last quarter's target LDL with daily patient statin adherence information made available. |
Various combinations of financial incentives to patients and providers.

|
Active Comparator: Physician and Patient Combined Incentives
(with adherence feedback) Quarterly payments shared evenly by physician and patient based on patient achieving an LDL reduction of at least 10 mg/dl relative to baseline LDL or the last quarter's target LDL. Physicians will receive daily information about patients' statin adherence. |
Various combinations of financial incentives to patients and providers.
