Medicare Exclusions

The following are the total number of cardiologists who accept Medicare in your state, the number who have opted out of Medicare, and the total number excluded from participation in Medicare nationwide.

Providers excluded by the OIG or terminated by a State Medicaid Agency cannot participate in federal Medicaid, TRICARE, and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) healthcare programs.

In addition, a provider whose billing privileges have been revoked by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) or any State Medicaid Agency is prohibited from participating in Medicare.

The diagram below shows all the cardiologists across the country, represented by blue bubbles. The larger the bubble, the greater the concentration of providers in that area. Red bubbles represent Medicare-excluded providers, with the larger bubbles indicating a higher percentage of excluded providers in that region. You can change the bubble size to be based on exclusions from the Size menu.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a cardiologist?

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) physicians, also called cardiologists, diagnose and treat conditions of the heart and blood vessels.

What do cardiologists do?

They perform diagnostic tests, create treatment plans that may include medication and lifestyle changes, and perform procedures such as cardiac catheterization.

They manage conditions like coronary artery disease, heart failure, arrhythmias, and heart attacks.

Diagnose and evaluate: Cardiologists conduct physical exams, take medical histories, and order tests to diagnose heart conditions. 
Perform tests: They use a variety of diagnostic tests to assess heart health, including EKGs, stress tests, echocardiograms (ultrasound of the heart), and cardiac CT or MRI scans. 
Create treatment plans: Based on their findings, they may recommend treatments that include prescribing medications, dietary changes, exercise, or other lifestyle adjustments. 
Perform procedures: Some cardiologists perform minimally invasive procedures. For example, interventional cardiologists can perform angioplasty to open blocked arteries and place stents. 
Manage long-term conditions: They monitor patients with chronic heart conditions, ensuring treatment plans are effective and adjusting them as needed. 
Refer patients: If a condition requires surgery, they will refer the patient to a cardiac surgeon.
