Carda Health, a virtual pulmonary and cardiac care provider, has appointed Peter Antall as Chief Medical Officer to lead clinical expansion. Dr Antall will oversee a team of over 120 clinical professionals as the company scales to support millions of patients nationally. Dr Antall brings experience from Amwell, Brightline and other health tech companies. His appointment comes as Carda transitions from high-growth startup to premier clinical platform. The company's home-based rehabilitation programmes have reduced hospital readmissions by 40% whilst lowering care costs. Founded in 2020, Carda Health partners with Medicare health plans and providers to deliver evidence-based chronic care programmes. The company has raised $295 million to date and serves patients who face barriers to traditional rehabilitation facilities.

Carda Health has partnered with Humana to provide at-home cardiac rehabilitation services to Humana members nationwide. The programme offers virtual care for patients recovering from heart conditions, addressing barriers like transportation and scheduling that prevent completion of traditional in-person rehabilitation. Carda delivers clinically supervised exercise sessions, nutrition and medication follow-ups, and functional capacity assessments through individualised care plans. The company's team of doctors, nurse practitioners and clinical exercise physiologists work with patients to structure treatment plans based on their needs. Founded in 2020, Carda has become the largest provider of virtual cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation in the United States, treating tens of thousands of patients annually. The partnership aims to reduce hospital readmissions whilst enabling patients to recover safely at home.
