Atria Health partners with health plans to improve cardiovascular outcomes, reduce unnecessary utilization, and deliver CV-specific value-based programs.
Explore Partnership Opportunities

Cardiovascular Disease:
A Top Cost Driver

Cardiovascular disease is on the rise in the U.S., and remains one of the most expensive conditions to manage.

1 in 3 deaths

in the U.S. is from cardiovascular disease, making it the leading cause of mortality.

>$400B annually

spent on cardiovascular care in the US (~15% of total health expenditures)

20-30% greater utilization

per episode from hospital-employed cardiologists when compared to independent physicians

2-3x higher costs

in hospital outpatient departments versus community-based alternatives.

<5% cardiology contracts

in value-based arrangements

V28 risk model

placing greater weight on CV conditions

Atria Health and our physician partners deliver independent, community-based cardiology that lowers costs, improves outcomes, and creates a scalable path toward true value-based care.

A Journey to Value Creation

Working side by side with health plan partners, Atria builds a stepwise path toward cardiovascular value:
1
Return to independent practice. Physicians regain autonomy and eliminate hospital-driven inefficiencies.
2
Shift to lower-cost sites of service. Community-based imaging, ambulatory surgery centers, and office-based services replace expensive inpatient and HOPD settings.
3
Develop cardiovascular specialty risk programs. Start with data sharing, progress to shared savings, and ultimately design specialty-specific risk arrangements.

Independent Physicians Delivery
Better Outcomes, Lower Utilization, Lower Cost

When physicians move out of hospital employment and back into independent practice:

Eliminate wasteful “double billing” tied to hospital outpatient department (HOPD) loopholes.

Utilize 20% fewer services than hospital-employed peers without compromising quality.

Deliver more patient-centered, efficient, and cost-effective cardiovascular care.

Right Care, Right Setting

CV ASCs and OBLs
Outpatient Imaging Centers
Chest Pain Triage
Intensive Cardiac Rehabilitation
Heart Failure Clinics
And Many Additional Service Lines

Atria helps transition care to clinically appropriate, cost-effective sites of service that increase patient access and reduce costs while maintaining the highest standards of clinical quality.

Build to CV-specific risk

Atria positions physicians and health plans to succeed in risk-bearing cardiovascular programs. We start with data transparency and shared performance tracking, then co-design care models that:

Reduce unnecessary hospitalizations and ED presentations

Improve chronic disease management

Maximize CV risk adjustment accuracy

Reward outcomes and efficiency, not volume

A True Partner in Value-Based Care

Together, we can lower costs, improve outcomes, and design cardiovascular risk programs that work for patients, physicians, and health plans alike.
