• Description:
  Since 2002, most states have adopted policies (i.e., legislation and/or regulations) to create and strengthen stroke systems of care (SSOCs) that improve access to time-sensitive and effective treatment for stroke victims.1 This study assessed the impact of existing state SSOC laws on a range of stroke outcomes over time. The evaluation included an impact analysis of laws in all 50 states and Washington, DC, and case studies in three states that exceeded predicted performance on multiple stroke outcomes. State decision makers and public health organizations may consider study findings to support and improve SSOC in states and regions.
