Why Join CVAUSA? | Expand Your Cardiovascular Healthcare Practice

Band Together With CVAUSA

CVAUSA exists to serve the cardiovascular specialists we support. You will find that all of the benefits we have built into our organization, our network, and the resources we provide are offered to empower you. Here’s what you’ll experience when you join us:

Autonomy

We keep practice owners in charge and protect your autonomy to choose what’s best because we know you know best.

Improvements in Care

CVAUSA will develop an enhanced care model that focuses on keeping patients out of the hospital and shifts the site of care to the ambulatory, office, and home settings; measured using nationally-recognized quality, safety, and patient experience outcomes.

Community

Collaborate with a network of other cardiovascular physicians all across the U.S., sharing and learning best practices to help optimize the performance of all CVAUSA partner groups.

Resources

Extensive capital and intellectual resources to support and accelerate your practice’s growth.

Joining CVAUSA

Our process is very simple and structured, from the initial discussions all the way to closing a transaction. We have a highly experienced development team led by Tom Schwallie, a veteran healthcare development and operations expert.

No-Obligation Conversation

First, you'll schedule a call with us. At that time, we will explain more about ourselves and the benefits of joining CVAUSA. We'll also ask you some questions about your practice, goals, and vision for the future. Likewise, we'll give you plenty of time to ask questions and get answers from our team. If we seem like a good fit for partnership, the next step is a formal evaluation.

Formal Evaluation

We'll begin with a non-disclosure agreement before sharing data. During analysis, we identify opportunities for revenue growth along several vectors including programmatic and ASC/OBL development, advanced tomographic imaging, geographic expansion, reimbursement improvements, innovative arrangements with risk-bearing organizations, new care model elements, and more.

Executing a Letter of Intent

If, after the formal evaluation, both parties agree that a partnership would be mutually beneficial, CVAUSA will provide a Letter of Intent (LOI), which will clearly outline our offer. If the offer meets your expectations, you will sign and return the LOI, at which point, the due diligence process will begin. A proper and thorough due diligence process typically takes between 60 to 90 days to complete.

Closing and Integration

Following due diligence, definitive agreements are drafted and then executed. CVAUSA’s operations team will work hand-in-hand with your leadership to complete all closing and post-closing integration activities. Remember, clinical and operational autonomy is maintained at the group level. CVAUSA does not manage your practice. Our team is here to support and accelerate your growth.
