Early diagnosis of heart failure improves patient outcomes, however diagnosis is complex and often delayed. This study evaluates a digital pathway for heart failure diagnosis, showing it reduces time to diagnosis and treatment initiation, with an incremental cost of £5,700 per quality adjusted life-year (QALY) gained over a lifetime. The pathway is cost-effective for the UK National Health Service at £20,000 per QALY threshold, however data uncertainties remain.
