Mainline Health Systems, Inc. (MHSI) has received three American Heart Association outpatient program achievement awards in recognition for its commitment to reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke by improving high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and Type 2 diabetes management. The awards recognize a commitment to following the latest evidence- and science-based care guidelines.
