Caption Care

Turnkey, end-to-end echo program

Caption Care delivers convenient, cost-effective echocardiograms in any care setting to identify heart disease earlier—before undiagnosed issues become serious.

Checklist

Engagement

Patients are identified for Caption echos based on presentation of symptoms or risk factors and engaged to schedule an exam.

Enablement

Caption-trained healthcare workers perform echos in accessible care settings and upload images for clinical read by a network of board-certified cardiologists.

Management

Clinical report determines disease staging and informs care plan development, with options for additional care management support through our partners.

30%+

Asymptomatic (Stage B) heart failure has a prevalence of 30%+ in the 55+ population

69%

Misdiagnosis of heart failure ranges from 16% in hospital settings to 69% in primary care settings2

46%

For heart failure patients diagnosed in acute care settings, 46% had potential symptoms in the prior 6 months3

Elevate standard of care and meet cardiac screening and monitoring guidelines across disease states
