About the Forum
Leading Outpatient Cardiology Strategy
Cardiology is moving to the ASC faster than almost any other specialty, and the leaders who plan ahead are the ones capturing the volume. The Becker's Cardiology Forum was built for the physicians and administrators navigating that shift, bringing together cardiovascular leaders to share what's actually working as reimbursement, technology and site of care all move at once.
Sessions dig into the questions defining the specialty right now, from bringing cardiology to the ASC and where cardiology ASCs will stand by 2030. Attendees leave with a grounded read on where cardiology is actually headed, plus a network of fellow leaders solving the same site-of-care and reimbursement challenges.
