Northeast Georgia Medical Center (NGMC) is proud to announce its new accreditations in carotid artery stenting (CAS) and percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) by the Accreditation for Cardiovascular Excellence (ACE™). PCI includes life-saving heart attack care like angioplasty, while CAS is an advanced procedure that widens narrowed portions of a patient’s carotid artery to improve or restore blood flow. NGMC is also currently rated Georgia’s #1 heart hospital for the seventh consecutive year (2006 – 2012). In fact, for 2012, NGMC is one of only six hospitals in the nation to rank #1 in all four cardiac categories measured by HealthGrades®.
