Leveraging New Technology to Expand Access to Arrhythmia Care in Underserved Populations

Main Stage 2
September 18, 2026 | 03:15 PM (EDT) - 04:00 PM (EDT)

Arrhythmia care is often a necessity—but not all patients have equal access to cutting-edge treatments, timely diagnoses, or educational resources. In this interactive session, allied professionals will explore the barriers faced by underserved communities—including rural, low-income, and minority populations—in accessing effective heart rhythm care. We will discuss the role of the allied professional in leveraging telehealth, mobile clinics, wearable technology, community education, and culturally sensitive care models.
