This report investigates the burden of heart disease among low-income Australians, highlighting the significant role of socioeconomic factors in its development and progression. It discusses how limited access to healthcare, influenced by socioeconomic status, contributes to higher incidence and mortality rates from cardiovascular diseases within this population. The report also examines social determinants of health, such as poor education and lifestyle choices like smoking, as key contributors to the increased risk. Furthermore, it outlines government strategies and public health interventions aimed at addressing these disparities, including the National Strategic Framework and initiatives focused on providing accessible, quality healthcare and promoting health education in disadvantaged communities. The ultimate goal is to improve the quality of life and reduce the incidence of heart disease among economically disadvantaged Australians.
