Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Digital Heart Failure Medication Titration
The Story Health platform will remotely receive daily vital signs directly from a blood pressure cuff and scale provided to the participant. Participants will also report any symptoms. All of this data will be transmitted, via the platform, to the treating clinician at the site, who will create care plans for medication titration and make clinical decisions. The care plans will be implemented with assistance from health coaches from Story Health Inc.
Digital Heart Failure Medication Titration
Story Health Platform, which is a remote, digital tool that provides treating clinicians collected data to make clinical decisions regarding heart failure medication titration.
Usual Care
Routine clinical care will be followed. Participants will also receive a blood pressure cuff and scale, though the data will not be routinely fed back to the treating clinicians unless requested.
No interventions assigned to this group

Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
* Diagnosis of HF and LVEF \<40% on most recent imaging assessment within 1 year prior to screening. Any validated method for assessing LVEF may be used for enrollment including echocardiogram, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, etc. For participants with an LVEF reported qualitatively (e.g., moderate LV dysfunction) or as a range on the most recent imaging assessment that includes 40% (e.g., 35-45%), then the site investigator should review the imaging study and determine if the participant has an LVEF \<40%. Participants with a new diagnosis of HFrEF may be enrolled. The enrollment will be monitored to ensure no more than 50% of the total cohort have new-onset HFrEF.
* Access to a smartphone including through a family member of caregiver
* Fluent in written and spoken English
Exclusion Criteria
* Current pregnancy
* Chronic use of intravenous inotropic medications including milrinone, dobutamine, or dopamine
* eGFR of \<20 mL/min/1.73m2 or ongoing chronic dialysis at screening
* Prior heart transplant
* Current or planned left ventricular assist device
* Currently receiving hospice care
* Chronically resides in an assisted living or skilled nursing facility where food and medications are managed by facility personnel
* Terminal illness other than HF with a life expectancy of less than 1 year as determined by the enrolling clinician-investigator
