A New Paradigm

of Cardiovascular Care

Karoo helps cardiology networks, health systems, and health plans transition to and succeed in value-based care.

Cardiovascular care is the #1 cost to our health system.

The current fee for service model incentivizes providers to maximize volume and throughput at the expense of clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction.
