We're on a mission to transform access to cardiac care

Where you live shouldn’t determine the quality of care you receive
Our virtual care model ensures rapid remote access to expert cardiologists, so patients with heart failure, atrial fibrillation, or other conditions can quickly begin guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) — no matter where they live.
Research shows that use of optimal heart failure therapy is significantly lower for patients living in rural communities.2
Our virtual care model helps close the gaps in heart care equity, ensuring patients receive rapid access to care and education — no matter what health resources are available in their local communities.
Our mission
Our purpose is to empower people to live longer, healthier, happier lives by increasing access to complex cardiac care.
Founded in 2021 by heart failure cardiologist Dr. Daniel Bensimhon, Ventricle Health is a nationwide virtual network of cardiologists, nurses, pharmacists, and health advocates who are united in our dedication to give every cardiology patient the kind of care we’d want for our loved ones.
“We are on a strong course to irrevocably change the way heart failure care is delivered in this country, in a fashion that is better for patients and more sustainable for the system.”
