Florida Chapter, American College of Cardiology (FCACC)

In 1986, the Florida Chapter became the first chapter of the American College of Cardiology (ACC) and was awarded non-profit status in the state of Florida on September 29th, 1987. A group of Florida heart specialists saw the need for a state cardiovascular society in order to be represented at the Florida Medical Association (FMA). In addition, these first chapter members knew that an organization that would focus on issues in the practice, regulatory and legislative arena exclusively in the state of Florida would benefit patient care.

Mission:
To transform cardiovascular care and improve heart health.

Vision:
FCACC joins the ACC Vision of a world where innovation and knowledge optimize cardiovascular care and outcomes.
