Cardiovascular Institute of Central Florida

What Cardiovascular Institute of Central Florida does

Cardiovascular Institute of Central Florida (CVI) is a private, multi-specialty cardiology practice headquartered in Ocala, Florida, operating six clinic locations across Ocala, Lady Lake/The Villages, and Tavares. Founded in 2007, the practice employs 51-100 staff including 16+ board-certified cardiologists with subspecialties spanning interventional cardiology, cardiac electrophysiology, preventive cardiology, invasive cardiology, and vascular medicine. CVI provides comprehensive cardiovascular care across the full continuum — preventive screening, diagnostic imaging, interventional procedures, heart failure management, cardiac rehabilitation, and preoperative surgical clearance — using technologies such as Cardiac CTA, echocardiography, nuclear stress testing, vascular ultrasound, cardiac catheterization, vein ablation, and implanted devices including the Optimizer Smart System (CCM therapy) and Torus2 stent graft. The practice maintains hospital privileges at AdventHealth Ocala, HCA Florida Ocala Hospital, and HCA West Marion Hospital, and is affiliated with the Surgery Center of Central Florida ambulatory surgery center.

CVI's business model is a fee-for-service, insurance-billed clinical practice with multiple revenue streams: evaluation and management visits, diagnostic imaging studies, interventional procedures performed in-office and at affiliated hospitals, and outpatient procedures at its affiliated ASC. Go-to-market is community-based, driven by physician referrals, the practice's regional clinic density, insurance network participation (Medicare, Medicaid, and major commercial carriers), and community outreach such as the Women in Red program. The practice is a member of Cardiovascular Associates of America (CVAUSA), a national network of 495+ cardiovascular providers, and maintains a technology partnership with Impulse Dynamics for novel cardiac devices. CVI has remained independent and privately held, with no disclosed venture capital or private equity sponsorship.

Regional players

• The Villages Health: Multi-specialty primary and specialty care organization dedicated to The Villages retirement community, where CVI also operates a clinic. Overlaps with CVI in cardiovascular screening and chronic disease management for the same high-acuity retiree population.

Direct peers

• Cardiovascular Associates of America (CVAUSA): National professional organization and rollup platform representing 495+ cardiovascular providers, of which CVI is a member. CVAUSA affiliates independent cardiology groups with shared best practices, technology, and growth resources — directly analogous to CVI's operating model.
• Florida Medical Clinic (Cardiology): Large multi-specialty physician group with a dedicated cardiology service line serving the Tampa Bay region. Independent, multi-specialty group with imaging and procedural offerings comparable to CVI's core service model.

Broad incumbents

• Orlando Health Heart & Vascular Institute: Comprehensive cardiovascular service line of Orlando Health, a large not-for-profit Florida health system offering interventional cardiology, EP, imaging, and cardiac surgery across Central Florida; competes with CVI for specialists, referrals, and patients in the broader region.
• HCA Florida Healthcare (Cardiovascular Services): HCA's Florida hospital network, including HCA Florida Ocala Hospital and HCA West Marion where CVI physicians hold privileges. Operates employed cardiology programs and cath labs in direct competition with independent groups across the state.
• Tampa General Hospital Heart & Vascular Institute: Academic-affiliated cardiovascular program serving Tampa Bay and broader Florida. Comparable in scope to CVI (interventional, EP, advanced imaging) but operates as a hospital-employed model rather than an independent specialty group.
• Cleveland Clinic Florida (Cardiology): National-brand destination cardiology program with Florida locations providing interventional, EP, and structural heart services. A premium competitor for complex cases in the Florida cardiovascular market.
• Mayo Clinic in Florida (Cardiovascular Medicine): Destination medical-center cardiology program operating in Jacksonville, FL. Specialty and tertiary-care cardiology competitor drawing patients and physicians from the broader Florida cardiovascular market.
• Halifax Health Heart & Vascular Center: Community hospital-based cardiovascular program in Central Florida offering interventional cardiology, EP, and cardiac rehab — a regional competitor for cardiology referrals in overlapping Florida geography.
• AdventHealth Medical Group (Heart & Vascular): Hospital-employed cardiology program of AdventHealth, a major Central Florida health system. CVI holds privileges at AdventHealth Ocala and shares the same regional market; AdventHealth is both a referral partner and competitive employer of cardiologists in the service area.
