Cardiac rehabilitation

Telemetry-monitored sessions last approximately 60 minutes and are typically scheduled three days weekly, for up to 36 total sessions or 12 weeks. All exercise programs are created with a focus on each individual’s physical limitations and current level of functioning.

Education sessions include diet management, weight management, home exercise safety and progression, stress management, medications, and smoking cessation as well as blood pressure and cholesterol standards.

Phase II cardiac rehab is generally covered by most insurance companies (Medicare, Medicaid and other private insurance companies), but patients are encouraged to check with their insurance plan to determine co-pays or other requirements.

If you suffer from and are limited by intermittent claudication (IC) pain during activity and your physician has diagnosed you with Peripheral Artery Disease, this program can help you.

PAD exercise is a series of sessions over 12 weeks lasting 45 - 60 minutes per session, with the recommended number of sessions being 36. After 36 sessions, there is a recommended 8 week PAD step-down program.

Each session involves either walking on a treadmill or our indoor track to allow each person to achieve symptom-limited claudication.

Each session is supervised by our exercise physiologists, who have knowledge in appropriate progression of your program to achieve optimal benefits.

Yes, Medicare considers PAD exercise programming a covered benefit with an allowable 36 visits. However, you may be responsible for deductibles and co-payments. Checking with your insurance regarding deductibles and co-payments is recommended. 

Prior authorization is required for insurances other than Medicare.
