“This collaboration between FCCI and CardioHealth marks a significant milestone for both practices,” David Konur, CEO of Cardiovascular Logistics, said in a prepared statement. “By joining together and leveraging their complementary strengths while receiving additional support from Cardiovascular Logistics, they are well positioned to continue delivering outstanding care to patients in northeast Florida.”
“Through this partnership and integration with FCCI, CardioHealth is enhancing our non-invasive practice model to one encompassing interventional cardiology, electrophysiology, and structural heart disease, which will enable our team to deliver high-quality care to more patients,” added Ramon Castello, MD, CardioHealth founder and director of non-invasive cardiology at HCA Florida Memorial Hospital.
Private equity’s impact in cardiovascular care
The rise of private equity continues to be one of the biggest trends in all of healthcare, and its presence in cardiology seems to be growing by the day. Florida has been perhaps the most active market in the United States when it comes to this increased focus on private equity investments; Orlando-based Cardiovascular Associates of America, for instance, expanded its footprint in the Sunshine State several times in 2023.
