The Texas Cardiac Arrhythmia Institute (TCAI) at St. David’s Medical Center is the first in the country to implant a newly FDA-approved leadless device that delivers cardiac resynchronization therapy to patients with heart failure.

The device, about the size of a grain of rice is implanted directly into the heart’s left ventricle and uses ultrasound energy to restore normal rhythm and improve heart function. Cardiac resynchronization therapy improves the timing of the heart’s contractions, helping to restore the normal rhythm of the heartbeat.

Unlike traditional systems that rely on wired leads, this wireless approach allows more precise placement and expands treatment options for patients who were previously considered untreatable.

TCAI continues to lead in innovative heart care with advanced, minimally invasive therapies. Thank you to the team pictured below for their dedication and innovation!

Meet Kenny. He’s one of millions of Americans who are about to face a major increase in health insurance costs – and most don’t even know it yet.

Enhanced Premium Tax Credits (EPTCs) are currently helping 24 million people – including our patients – afford high-quality healthcare coverage through the insurance Marketplace (https://bit.ly/4loom3x). These tax credits are applied directly to people’s premiums, keeping coverage affordable and making healthcare more accessible. But unless Congress acts soon, these tax credits will expire at the end of 2025.

“When you get sick and you’re not rich, health insurance is absolutely essential. It doesn’t just make life easier, it makes life possible,” said Kenny. “Losing the healthcare tax credit would mean my monthly costs would go through the roof, and I wouldn’t be able to afford my treatments. I need Congress to extend the healthcare tax credit and give people in towns like mine a fighting chance.”

Without EPTCs, health insurance costs will skyrocket. Families may be forced to make heartbreaking choices – between keeping their health coverage or paying for food, rent and childcare. Learn how you can help protect access to care at https://bit.ly/4l3OMYG
