Larry is a cardiac survivor
Larry is a 40-year Kaiser Permanente member who unexpectedly ended up in the Emergency Department one night. He woke from a coma two months later to learn that our structural heart team had saved his life with minimally invasive cardiac surgery repairing a leaky heart valve that caused blood and fluid to fill his lungs.
Pioneering minimally invasive procedures
When new and better treatments can help our members heal faster, we put them into practice. Like transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) — which allows our cardiology care teams to replace heart valves without open-heart surgery. That means shorter recovery times, smaller scars, and less time in the hospital — just 1 or 2 days on average, versus a week or more for open-heart surgeries.

Heart Failure Care Management Program
The Heart Failure Care Management Program is designed to help our members with heart failure gain control of their condition and its symptoms. This 6-to-12-month program helps participants learn how to better manage their heart failure so they can lead a normal, more productive life.
Cardiac Rehabilitation Program
Our capitalize Cardiac Rehab Program helps members recover from a heart attack, stent placement or heart surgery and develop heart-healthy routines after leaving the hospital, so that they have better chances for faster recovery and avoid another heart event.
