This document sets out the plans for the NHS to introduce a systematic and integrated programme of vascular risk assessment and management for those aged between 40 and 74. It explains in more depth what vascular disease is, why undertaking risk assessment and management is important, and how these checks might be performed throughout England. It calls for stakeholders to work with the Department of Health to help develop the approach to implementation and delivery over the next few months.
