Regulatory changes are affecting how and where cardiovascular services are delivered.
The cost of care for cardiovascular disease in the United States more than doubled between 2011 and 2016 and is projected to grow at nearly 5% per year, surpassing $1 trillion by 2035. To reduce this unsustainable cost growth, the government has implemented significant regulatory changes, allowing many cases to move to lower-cost ASCs and dramatically impacting traditional inpatient-focused cardiovascular care models.
