-**Objective:​** ​The goal of our study is to evaluate practice-based evidence from to determine whether achieved LDL or statin intensity status is most important in predicting adverse health outcomes. ​+**Objective:​** ​Derive data that large healthcare organizations can combine data on risks of adverse events ​ and cost data to conduct cost-effectiveness / cost-benefit analyses for pre-emptive pharmacogenomics testing
  
-**Rationale:​** ​Recommendations from the 2013 American College of Cardiology/​American Heart Association Guidelines ​on the Assessment of Cardiovascular Risk have had controversial reception ​Questions remain as to whether statins possess an intrinsic beneficial quality above and beyond their reduction of LDL levels, and thus should ​be maximized regardless ​of LDL level. ​ Studies are also conflicting as to whether LDL reduction using drugs other than a statin will achieve equivalent results in terms of cardiovascular protection.+**Rationale:​** ​Very few studies have been conducted that report ​on the potential return on investment for pre-emptive pharmacogenomics testing. The studies that have been published ​ suggest that pre-emptive pharmacogenomics testing may produce ​return on investment but much depends on if a sufficient number of drugs with pharmacogenes are covered by a single testSince the current data are limited ​to relatively localized settings ​and might not be of generalizable use to other health organizations,​ it'​s ​of interest to implement a new study using the OHDSI research network
