About Cardiovascular Business Solutions
.
Hi, I'm Karen Walker, and I'm the CEO of Cardiovascular Business Solutions where I help healthcare executives strategically optimize the performance of Cardiovascular Services in half the time all while minimizing costs and resource allocation.
I’ve helped numerous for-profit and nonprofit healthcare organizations increase their cardiovascular service revenue by over 35% while improving quality outcomes.

My Story
In 2018, life was GOOD. I had built a successful career spanning more than 3 decades and had garnered a reputation as a leading authority in the field of cardiovascular program development. By enhancing patient outcomes and driving healthcare practice advancements, I had built the confidence that I could strategically increase revenue within the CV Service Line.
Then, in the midst of a company restructuring, I suddenly lost my job.
For the first time in my life, I was completing paperwork to receive government assistance and looking for employment. Many interviews later, I lifted my head and really absorbed the healthcare landscape: a lack of personalized care for patients, a growing reliance on outdated technology and a disconnect between healthcare providers and program development—especially in stand alone hospitals.
The result?
A significant decrease in revenue and impending program closures. But with 30 years of experience in the CV space, I could see a more hopeful trajectory—a path toward a more sustainable approach to healthcare delivery that prioritizes seamless continuity of care, timely interventions, and personalized treatment strategies. A path that would enhance patient outcomes and holistic well-being—regardless of geographic location.
Our Services
And with that, Cardiovascular Business Solutions and my 5-Step Cardio Profit Blueprint were born.
By implementing the 5-Step Profit Blueprint, healthcare executives can make more informed decisions, streamline operations, optimize resource allocation, and enhance financial performance—ultimately avoiding unnecessary risks and uncertainties in an ever-evolving healthcare landscape. What's even better? I now channel my experience and passion for the CV Service Line into transformations that build better healthcare.
