Hypertension is a global health issue causing almost 10 million deaths annually, with a
disproportionate number occurring in low- and middle-income countries. The condition can
be managed effectively, but there is a need for innovation in healthcare delivery to alleviate
its burden. This paper presents a number of innovative delivery models from a number
of different countries, including Kenya, Ghana, Barbados and India. These models were
presented at the London Dialogue event, which was cohosted by the Novartis Foundation
and the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine Centre for Global Noncommunicable
Diseases on 1 December 2015. It is argued that these models are applicable not only to
hypertension, but provide valuable lessons to address other noncommunicable diseases.
