A New Paradigm
of Cardiovascular Care
Our mission is to overhaul the current system of cardiovascular care and improve the lives of patients by tackling the high cost of care while increasing patient success.
Cardiovascular care is the #1 cost to our health system.
The current fee for service model incentivizes providers to maximize volume and throughput at the expense of clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction.
$450 billion
Cardiovascular care expenditure in 2022
$1 Trillion
Cardiovascular care expenditure by 2035 if we don't make a change

A better patient journey
A more complete, supported and streamlined care experience at every step

Two months later patient experiences unexpected symptoms and has follow up visit
