Your Cardiovascular Health Needs
A Different Approach
At Trinity Heart and Vascular Group, we’re changing the standard approach to cardiovascular care. We’re a cash-based, third-party-free cardiology practice serving the Tri-Cities and surrounding areas. What does that mean for you?
Lower Prices
If you have a high-deductible insurance plan, are uninsured, or participate in a health-sharing program, our prices can save you hundreds or even thousands of dollars.
Extended Appointments
As a patient, you'll have plenty of time to discuss your cardiac issues. Our providers listen with compassion, and your office visits will never be rushed.
Timely Access to Cardiac Care
You don't have to wait 2 or 3 months for an appointment. At our facility, you can often be seen for an office visit or test the same week that you call, and sometimes even the same day.*
*Excludes nuclear stress tests. Average booking time is 10-14 days.
No Pre-Authorizations
Has your insurance company denied your request for cardiac testing? You can get your test done here! We offer fair prices, and there's no approval process. All we need is a written order from your medical provider.

Restoring the Provider-Patient relationship
Decades ago, outpatient medical care involved a two-party setup between the physician and the patient. In that setup, physicians were able to spend quality time with their patients, which made room for an authentic, human connection.
Sadly, many modern-day medical providers are now bound to numerous restrictions set by insurance companies, and as a result, the provider-patient relationship has largely been fractured.
We believe that patients and medical providers should have the opportunity to establish a trusting relationship with one another, without constraints — and it’s our mission to bring it back.

we’re here to answer your questions
As a third-party-free, self-pay practice, we understand that we offer an unconventional approach to cardiovascular care.
We also know that choosing a cardiologist in Johnson City, TN and the surrounding areas — a cardiologist that’s a perfect fit for your health needs — can be an overwhelming task.
With both of those factors in mind, we’ve created an educational resource center, where you can learn more about the principles behind our practice.
We invite you to take an in-depth look at these important topics because, whether you choose our practice or not, we want you to be empowered when it comes to your healthcare options.
What is a 'third-party-free' practice?
We believe that the provider-patient relationship should be a two-party setup. When third parties get involved in outpatient care, it can sometimes lead to less-than-ideal outcomes (both medically and financially). Here’s what a third-party-free medical practice is, and the benefits it can provide.
The Benefits of Being a Self-Pay Patient
Being a self-pay (or “cash-pay”) patient is financially advantageous if you have a high-deductible insurance plan, are part of a cost-sharing program, or are uninsured. However, all are welcome here, regardless of insurance status.
Here’s how our practice can possibly save you hundreds (or even thousands) of dollars on your cardiovascular healthcare as a self-pay patient.
Why We Don't Accept Health Insurance
While traditional health insurance can be incredibly helpful for catastrophic events, such as emergency surgeries and in-patient hospital stays, it can sometimes cause medical and financial stress when it comes to outpatient testing and treatment.
Here are some important facts about health insurance, and why we’ve chosen not to participate with any insurance plans.
5 Common Insurance Problems and Our Solutions
While every health insurance plan is different, some can cause issues in regard to timely medical testing, prices for outpatient services, privacy, and your relationship with your medical provider. Here are the most common problems, and how we strive to solve them.
Accommodating Patients with Medicare Plans and Low-Deductible Insurance Plans
Since we don’t accept any insurance plans (including Medicare), all patients pay us directly for their office visits and testing. This is ideal for patients with high-deductible insurance plans, or those who are self-insured.
However, we understand that some people have insurance plans that fully cover testing, and they may want to use it for cardiac-related tests, but still want to become a patient at our practice. If that’s your situation, here’s how we can help you utilize a hybrid approach to accommodate that need.
