Dear Patient:
Pima Heart physicians have developed a cardiac rehabilitation program to facilitate your recovery from your heart problem. This program will give you the education and support you need, so that you can learn the lifestyle modifications necessary to prevent future heart problems. We consider this very important for your future health. Some of you may not have the benefit of cardiac rehabilitation in your insurance plan. Pima Heart's belief is that you, the patient, should have access to cardiac rehabilitation and have the right to participate in your cardiac health. If your insurance plan does not offer you a cardiac rehabilitation option, we will. We have developed a reasonable, affordable payment plan for the service.
Please contact one of the programs below to begin to reclaim your quality of life! The options are as follows:
