Leading the Way for Value-Based Cardiology

At CVAUSA, we believe that entrepreneurial cardiovascular specialists hold the key to a more efficient and effective cardiovascular care system for patients, payors, and physicians.

Novocardia will serve as the catalyst to revamp a system not consistently meeting Americans’ cardiovascular care needs. We will help cardiovascular specialists continue delivering even higher-value care while supporting the rollout of new contracting models that reward efforts to reduce avoidable healthcare spending.

The Future is Risk-Based Reimbursement

Under innovative new contracting models, CVAUSA physician partners will be able to reduce the total cost of cardiovascular care — providing specialists with robust financial benefits in addition to improving the quality of care for patients.

As our Novocardia division develops models that utilize risk-based reimbursement, CVAUSA will provide the support our partner groups need to flourish under these new payment models.

We Are the Epicenter for Entrepreneurial Cardiovascular Specialists

Novocardia is committed to helping physician partners thrive under value-based and risk-based payment models. As part of CVAUSA, we are the largest and most influential leader in value-based heart & vascular care, with 200+ physician partners and over 400,000 active patients in 100+ locations — and growing.
