Legend Health’s heart health exam uses the power of ultrasound to help bring clarity to your individual health journey.
This safe, convenient exam delivers meaningful insights about your heart. And it can provide these insights earlier, before an undetected heart issue becomes serious – because we believe that healthcare should be proactive instead of reactive.
A recent study looked at close to 1 million patients newly diagnosed with heart failure and found that over ⅓ were diagnosed in the emergency department or other inpatient hospital setting. Of these patients, nearly half had potential heart failure symptoms in the prior 6 months.
Our goal is to prevent missed opportunities to take early action and avoid expensive hospital visits by empowering people with valuable information about their heart.
The heart health exam leverages our Caption Guidance and Caption Interpretation ultrasound technologies, as well as readings by independent physicians, to provide key measurements of cardiac structure and function.
This information can be especially valuable for people with hypertension, coronary artery disease, diabetes, chronic kidney disease, obesity, current or former smokers, or those with a personal or family history of heart disease.
The heart health exam does not diagnose disease.* We recommend discussing your results with a primary care physician or other healthcare provider for further evaluation and possible diagnosis.
*Legend Health does not provide medical services. This exam is for preventative purposes to gain information regarding your heart. Legend Health will not provide a diagnosis, treatment, or plan of care.
The heart health exam is currently available for adults in the Bay Area, California located in San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, and Alameda counties.
In order to provide the best possible care, we unfortunately cannot screen individuals in the following categories:
These more complex care needs are best addressed by a full echocardiogram performed by a specialist.
The in-home cardiac ultrasound portion of the exam is performed by a healthcare worker. A physician then conducts a clinical review of the captured ultrasound images and generates the final exam results.
The introductory price for this service is $299.
