Hopefully, I was starting to give up on the kit and was just going to do my own implementation using TI parts and ADI sensors that I already have. Hopefully that won't be necessary. For now though I am…

Although this is not directly related to the project, it IS related to how the stuff connects.
I noticed the AD8232 input does not have a SPI or I2C input/output. May I ask how one would receive the output from that eval board and wirelessly send the data?

Sorry to bring this back up, but how would one parse that output? Surely it would just be HIGH/LOW, and not give an actual ECG reading?

If it was high/low why the need to hook it up to an ADC? I'm betting it's an actual ECG signal.

Mm, sorry, just realised the question was vague.

To rephrase, how would one read the output, eg: with an arduino?

Check out the other modules supplied. One of them probably has an ADC. Maybe EVAL-ADXL362Z-MLP?

I did look at the EVAL-ADXL362Z-MLP, but that only appeared to handle the accelerometer.

I'm not familiar with the Arduino, but if it has an ADC then you could interface to it.

So, if I wired up one of these: ADS1115 16-Bit ADC - 4 Channel with Programmable Gain Amplifier ID: 1085 - $14.95 : Adafruit Industries, Unique & fun DI… to an Arduino, could I potentially use that?

You'll want someone with more Arduino experience to answer that one.
