MercyOne Iowa Heart Center is proud to lead in cardiac innovation with its Extravascular (EV) Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) program. This groundbreaking defibrillator, developed by Medtronic, combines the benefits of a traditional ICD with reduced infection and lead-related risks. Recently, Drs. Meyers and Campbell successfully completed Iowa’s first commercial EV ICD cases, building on their years of involvement in pivotal studies, led by Dr. Hounshell. Our team also hosted Medtronic representatives and physicians from China for international training. Together, we’re advancing patient care both locally and globally.

In 2023, the top six health insurance companies made $47 BILLION—a 10.5% increase in revenue. Despite these profits, health insurers often deny claims or fail to pay approved claims, leaving billions of dollars unpaid to health systems. This makes it difficult to provide patients with the quality care they deserve. Learn more at www.healthcomesfirst.org
