The European Primary Care Cardio-renal-metabolic Society (EPCCS), aims to provide a focus of support, education, research, and policy on issues relating to CardioRenalMetabolic disease within primary care settings.
The EPCCS is dedicated to supporting, educating, exchange, providing guidance and advancing research on Cardio-Renal-Metabolic disease (CRM) within primary care settings.
Founded in 2000, EPCCS is built on the principles of collaboration, innovation, and patient-centered care. We unite healthcare professionals across Europe and beyond, fostering a multidisciplinary approach to cardio-renal-metabolic disease prevention, diagnosis, and management in primary care.

Together, we strive to improve patient outcomes, reduce the burden of cardio-renal-metabolic disease, and promote heart health across diverse populations. Join EPCCS and be part of a community dedicated to shaping the future of cardio-renal-metabolic care in primary care settings..
There are significant differences in primary care between countries, reflecting varying healthcare systems, cultural practices, and policies. To accomodate and address the different needs in Europe the EPCCS adopted in 2017 a new structure that ensures a representation of multiple countries and the design of a common focus addressing the challenges in reducing the burden of cardiovascular, cardiorenal and cardiometabolic diseases.
The EPCCS initaited several initiatives to provide support to primary care, like:
The EPCCS board and council are representing over 100.000 primary care professionals.
