The new clinic will offer new patient and follow-up appointments, cardiology consultations, EKG, heart monitors, device management and diagnostic services, according to a news release. Advanced cardiac care is offered at the system’s Watauga Medical Center in Boone, N.C. 

The system said the heart center at Watauga Medical Center was increasingly serving patients in Ashe County, and the new clinic is meant to provide more convenient access to those patients. 

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
