Reimagining Cardiovascular Service Lines to Drive Growth and Value

Value-Based Care Insights New Episode NOW On-Demand

Cardiovascular service lines are in the midst of a major transformation, reshaping how physicians and health systems deliver care. Sites of service are shifting, patients present with greater complexity, and prevention is taking on a more prominent role across the continuum of care.

On this episode Dan is joined by longtime colleague and nationally recognized leader Dr. Nihar Desai, Associate Professor of Medicine and Vice Chief of Cardiovascular Medicine at Yale School of Medicine. Dr. Desai brings a unique perspective at the intersection of research, operations, and value-based transformation, as he and Daniel take a deep dive into the evolving cardiovascular service line. They discuss what these changes mean for clinical outcomes, financial performance, and the patient experience.

Key Takeaways:

  • Cardiovascular care is rapidly shifting toward prevention and outpatient models, requiring new approaches to care delivery and resource planning.
  • Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly driving precision, efficiency, and real-time insights that help cardiovascular teams improve quality and value-based outcomes.
  • Health systems need to better align clinical practice, data, and technology, especially AI, to improve outcomes and more efficiently manage the total cost of cardiovascular care.
