A new spending proposal that would extend government funding for another seven months does not address the Medicare payment cut that went into effect on Jan. 1. More than 100 healthcare groups, including the ACC, STS, SCCT and SCAI, are now voicing their disappointment.
The ACC, AHA, HFSA, HRS and SCAI all worked together to try and make the new board a reality. Though their proposal has been denied, the groups say they are not done fighting.
U.S. cardiology groups have worked together to propose the creation of a new American Board of Cardiovascular Medicine for certifying cardiologists. Now, after many months of waiting, a final decision is expected by the end of February.
Device-based therapies can provide considerable value for heart failure patients when used alongside traditional pharmaceutical treatments. A new HFSA scientific statement outlines the benefits of these devices, urging care teams to implement them into daily practice.
Today's heart teams already face a number of challenges on a day-to-day basis. New data suggest they could soon be treating more patients than ever before.

The show will go on. After HFSA was forced to cancel its annual meeting due to Hurricane Helene, the group will now be livestreaming a series of late-breaking clinical sessions for anyone who had previously registered.
The news comes just one day before HFSA 2024 was scheduled to begin. HFSA is already considering the possibility of virtual sessions, but its primary concern is the safety of attendees.
In addition to more traditional presentations, this year's meeting will also include "Rapid Fire" sessions designed to pack a lot of late-breaking data into a relatively small amount of time.
Several key trends were evident at the Radiological Society of North America 2024 meeting, including new CT and MR technology and evolving adoption of artificial intelligence.
