The Problem Isn’t EECP®. It’s How Programs Are Built.
EECP works. The challenge is that most hospitals were never given a program designed to make it work at scale.
Too often, EECP is introduced as a piece of equipment rather than a clinical service line. Without structure around referrals, ownership, and utilization, performance becomes inconsistent and volume remains unpredictable.
When that happens, even proven therapies stall.
Where EECP Programs Break Down.
Across health systems, the same issues surface again and again:
Programs rely on one or two champions instead of a repeatable referral pathway.
Patient volume remains artificially limited
Eligible patients exist, but narrow screening and inconsistent identification keep them from being captured.
No one truly owns the program
Cardiology, rehab, and administration are involved, but accountability is unclear.
Capacity goes unused
Treatment rooms sit idle, and leadership begins to question the investment.
Performance lacks visibility
Without a utilization plan or benchmarks, EECP is viewed as underperforming rather than under designed.
Our Solution.
A Program-First Approach to Advanced Cardiac Therapy
The VasoMedical Advanced Cardiac Therapy (ACT) Program was built to move EECP beyond a single modality and into a complete, referral-driven treatment model.
Instead of introducing EECP as equipment only, ACT launches it as a structured program with defined pathways, ownership, and expectations. Clinical intent, operational execution, and utilization are aligned before the first patient is scheduled.
EECP remains the anchor therapy, but it operates within a broader framework designed to support real-world adoption and sustained performance.
What ACT Changes...
Referrals are designed, not assumed
ACT establishes repeatable referral pathways that extend beyond a single physician champion, reducing variability and dependence on individual behavior.
Patient identification is intentional
The program supports a broader, responsible clinical lens that helps providers recognize appropriate patients who are often missed, without stretching indications.
Program ownership is clear
ACT defines roles across cardiology, rehab, and administration so accountability is shared, visible, and durable.
Utilization is built in from day one
Capacity planning, scheduling cadence, and volume expectations are addressed upfront, eliminating the “install first, figure it out later” cycle.
Partnership extends beyond installation
VasoMedical remains engaged to support adoption, refinement, and long-term program performance.
The result is a modern cardiac therapy program that fits into hospital workflows and delivers consistent clinical and operational outcomes.
How ACT Works
A simple, program-first flow
A - Assess
Identify the right patients and referral sources
- Patient archetypes beyond obvious cases
- Referral source mapping across specialties
- Clinical screening aligned to real practice patterns
Who ACT Is Built For
Three audiences. One program.
Cardiology Leadership
