Cardiovascular Logistics aims to build a network of cardiovascular practices across the U.S. and help the Cardiovascular Institute of the South to expand its national presence, according to a Feb. 1 news release from the institute. 

Currently, Cardiovascular Institute of the South employs 60 physicians at 21 locations in Louisiana and Mississippi and manages 23 Chicago-based physicians. 

“Our mission at CIS from day one, from inception, has been to provide our patients with the highest-quality cardiovascular care available, and it has been our guiding light. We are eager to execute our mission on a much broader scale with national impact,” Craig Walker, MD, founder of CIS, said in a Feb. 1 press release.

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
