CardioSolution

What CardioSolution does

CardioSolution, doing business as VitalSolution, is a U.S. healthcare staffing and program management company founded in 2011 and headquartered in Cincinnati. The company specializes exclusively in two clinical verticals — interventional and general cardiology, and anesthesiology — placing interventional cardiologists, general cardiologists, cath lab techs, cath lab RNs, CRNAs, IR techs, and cardiovascular service line (CVSL) leaders at acute-care hospitals nationwide. Beyond per-assignment staffing, CardioSolution delivers full-service program development, including cardiac catheterization lab startup support and complete anesthesia program consulting, positioning the offering as an end-to-end service line build-out rather than a transactional locums placement.

The company operates three interconnected service lines: Cardiology Services, Anesthesiology Services, and Telehealth Services, with Cardio 360 serving as a branded provider employment model that offers physicians flexible block schedules, travel assignments, and 1099 engagement. The underlying technology is a specialized healthcare recruiting and program-management platform rather than a clinical software product; the differentiator is domain-specific recruiter expertise and the ability to assemble veteran clinical teams for complex cath lab launches. Distribution is direct-to-enterprise via a field sales organization targeting hospital administrators, supplemented by a self-serve job portal for clinician candidates.

Revenue is generated through two streams: professional services for clinician placement (travel and permanent) and managed services for hospital service line development. Pricing is quote-based and negotiated per assignment, with billing tied to assignment length (e.g., 13-week travel cycles), specialty, and geography. CardioSolution is privately held and operates as a subsidiary of Ingenovis Health, which owns a portfolio of healthcare staffing brands including Fastaff, Trustaff, Healthcare Support, US Nursing, Springboard Healthcare, Vista Staff, and Corazon.

Broad incumbents

• Jackson Healthcare: Privately held healthcare staffing company with specialty physician placement and allied staffing businesses. Comparable in hospital-centric, specialty-focused staffing model with national reach.
• CHG Healthcare: One of the largest U.S. healthcare staffing firms (CompHealth, Weatherby) placing physicians across specialties including cardiology and anesthesiology. Comparable enterprise sales motion to hospitals and clinician recruitment.
• AMN Healthcare: Largest U.S. healthcare staffing company with a locum tenens division that places physicians including cardiologists and anesthesiologists. Comparable in that it supplies clinicians to hospitals nationwide, but operates across many more specialties and is far larger.
• Envision Physician Services: Large multispecialty physician services firm providing anesthesia, emergency medicine, and specialty coverage to hospitals. Comparable in providing outsourced specialty clinical coverage and program management for hospitals.
• Cross Country Healthcare: National healthcare staffing and workforce solutions provider with physician staffing and travel nursing lines. Similar B2B model placing clinicians into hospitals; broader scope but overlapping in cardiology and anesthesia placements.
• Aya Healthcare: Large travel nursing and allied health staffing firm with a growing locum tenes division. Comparable in clinician-placement model and hospital relationships, though CardioSolution is more specialized and physician-focused.

Direct peers

• US Anesthesia Partners: Anesthesia-focused physician services and staffing company partnering with hospital-based anesthesia groups. Highly comparable for CardioSolution's anesthesiology service line, though USAP focuses almost exclusively on anesthesia.
• Sound Physicians: Hospitalist and specialty physician practice management company that builds and manages acute-care service lines including anesthesia and cardiology programs at community hospitals. Most directly comparable in the program-build / managed-services model for cardiovascular and anesthesia.
• Vista Staffing (Ingenovis sister brand): Sister company under Ingenovis Health placing physicians across multiple specialties via locum tenens assignments. Directly comparable clinician-placement model; an internal portfolio peer rather than external competitor.

Emerging players

• Cardiothoracic & Vascular Surgery Specialists (hypothetical peer): Use of a generic placeholder name omitted — replaced with Weatherby Global Staffing (a CHG brand) which has a dedicated locum cardiology division placing interventional and general cardiologists into hospitals nationwide, directly overlapping CardioSolution's core clinician segment.
