Did you know we are the FIRST Chapter of the ACC?

One of the pivotal moments in its history is that we have chapters and our chapter network is strong and vibrant. As ACC celebrates its 75th Anniversary, we were able to look back on our chapter and its role - click below to read the article in Cardiology Magazine. And cheers to us for the past while we continue to forge ahead and be your cardiology home!

President's Message

october 2024


Several Florida chapter members visited Washington, DC at the end of September to advocate for you and your patients. Our top priority was a demand to reverse the 2.8% cut to Medicare slated for next year. We also discussed other vital issues including prior authorization reform, CV screening for athletes, access and training for AED's, and care via telehealth. 

We hope you will join us next year, and if you have never been to DC before, we make sure everyone is up to speed before we ask you to see one, do one, teach one!! We had several first timers this year, including Dr. Jennifer Co-Vu who was kind enough to shoot this video for me. 

Save the date for next year's Legislative Conference: October 5-7, 2025.
