Temecula Valley Hospital has been designated a second time by Aetna as an Institute of Quality® Cardiac Care Facility for comprehensive heart and vascular treatments-now including Cardiac Surgery. Several months ago, TVH had been designated by Aetna an Institute of Quality® for Cardiac Medical Intervention and Cardiac Rhythm programs.
Aetna makes information about the quality and cost of health care services available to its members to help them make informed decisions about their health care needs. In line with this goal, Aetna recognizes hospitals and facilities in its network that offer specialized clinical services for certain health conditions. Facilities are selected for consistently delivering evidence-based, safe care.
“TVH now offers additional cardiac care services to the community. With our new expansion, two new cardiac catheterization labs have been added. One is designed specifically as an Electrophysiology Lab for the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation and the placement of cardiac devices, such as pacemakers and implantable cardiac defibrillators,” said Darlene Wetton, Chief Executive Officer of Temecula Valley Hospital. “It is an honor to be designated by Aetna twice for comprehensive heart and vascular treatments-including Cardiac Medical Intervention, Cardiac Rhythm programs and now Cardiac Surgery.”
