CardioParc

Develop a model for high-quality, accessible local cardiology care for everyone, everywhere.

Network of cardiology consulting practices whose goal is to rethink their organization in light of the current challenges facing cardiology.

THE NEEDS THEY MEET

  • The cardiology sector under severe strain: Growing demand for access to cardiology care, with a declining population of cardiologists. The average wait time to see a cardiologist is two months (and up to six months in some areas).
  • A public health issue: Cardiovascular disease is the second leading cause of death in France. While 15 million people currently have cardiovascular risk factors or are being treated for cardiovascular disease, the French national health insurance system estimates that this population is growing by an average of 2.5% per year.

WHAT CONVINCED US

  • Accessible healthcare provision: 90% of cardiologists are in sector 1, with the aim of ensuring affordability in the rollout of centers.
  • A redesigned model of local healthcare provision combining new organizational methods and digital tools.
  • A strategy to roll out the network in underserved areas to improve access to cardiology services, particularly in suburban and rural areas with long waiting times.
  • An experienced founding team sharing a common ambition: Founder and cardiologist since 2004, surrounded by a team of over 70 professionals, including 30 cardiologists.
