Atrial Fibrillation [NICE NG196]: Financial and commissioning impact
In April 2021, NICE published a new guideline NG196 – Atrial fibrillation: diagnosis and management which updates and replaces NICE CG180 (2014). There are a number of new recommendations, which are likely to have both a significant financial impact and potentially affect the way anticoagulation monitoring is managed. This bulletin aims to raise awareness of the commissioning and financial impact of this new guideline.
