VA Greater LA Partnership Proposal — Summit Cardiac

VA Greater LA Partnership Proposal · For Federal Healthcare Leadership

Prepared July 2026 Victor Musoke, RN · Founder

The Veteran-Specific Problem

"VA Greater Los Angeles carries a 20.6% 30-day HF readmission rate — and currently operates no incumbent post-discharge program to absorb it."

The veteran cardiac population brings layered clinical complexity: PTSD and anxiety-driven non-adherence, polypharmacy from service-connected comorbidities, and social determinants (housing instability, transportation gaps, rural outreach from the Greater LA catchment) that readmit patients who would otherwise stabilize. This is a mission-aligned access problem, not a penalty-reduction problem — VA facilities are exempt from HRRP and HACRP, and HCAI does not report on federal sites. The value here is clinical, not financial-on-paper.

Summit Cardiac's Solution

In-person, ICU/CCU-credentialed RN visits at home — not telehealth-only. Victor Musoke personally conducts every visit within the Greater LA catchment, with hands-on assessment that telehealth scales cannot replicate for decompensating veterans.
Continuous monitoring stack — Masimo SpO2, KardiaMobile 6L ECG, and daily weights — streaming early-warning data that triggers same-day escalation rather than 30-day retrospective readmission.
Veteran-contextual medication reconciliation — reconciliation against VA pharmacy records, PTSD/comorbidity-aware adherence coaching, and direct escalation to the discharging VA cardiologist when decompensation signs appear.

VA-Specific ROI

Federal facilities don't accrue HRRP penalties — so the value case is built on avoidable real-dollar readmission cost and the veteran experience, not on paper savings to a CMS penalty ledger.

$14,000 – $20,000 avoided cost per 30-day HF readmission

Program cost $3,500 – $5,000 per patient per month. Net positive ROI on every prevented readmission; break-even after roughly one avoided readmission per ~4 enrolled veterans.

Contracting Pathway

"Engagement does not require the VA's standard private-pay structure; we can structure as a pilot services agreement under existing VA authority — through the VA Federal Supply Schedule, a sole-source justification, or a pilot agreement under existing clinical service authority — distinct from the preferred-provider contracting private hospitals use. Anchor is mission-aligned veteran access, not commercial penalty math."
