Description:Through the Coverdell program, 13 states have received funding to establish partnerships and work to improve the quality of stroke care throughout a stroke patient’s health care journey—from the first stroke symptom to their return home.
In 2001, Congress provided funding to CDC to establish the Paul Coverdell National Acute Stroke Registry (PCNASR). The Paul Coverdell National Acute Stroke Registry was named after the late U.S. Senator Paul Coverdell of Georgia, who suffered a fatal stroke in 2000 while serving in Congress.
In 2012, as the program expanded, the name was changed to the Paul Coverdell National Acute Stroke Program (PCNASP).
