Despite Financial Strain, We Continue to Accept CDPHP
March 21, 2025 - Like many independent healthcare providers in the Capital Region, we are still waiting for CDPHP to reimburse us for services delivered in 2024. These ongoing delays place a strain on local practices that rely on timely payments to support operations, staff, and patient care.
While this situation is not sustainable over the long term, we remain committed to our patients and will continue to provide care as we work toward a resolution. We urge CDPHP to address these reimbursement concerns so that providers can focus on what matters most—caring for the community.
Capital Cardiology Associates continues to accept CDPHP insurance, including Medicare Advantage plans.

About Capital Cardiology
Capital Cardiology Associates provides a full range of diagnostic, interventional, surgical, therapeutic, and preventative services in the treatment of cardiovascular disease to patients throughout the Capital Region.
The roots of Capital Cardiology Associates trace back to two separate practices in Albany and Troy. The group of doctors soon merge to create a new practice, Capital Cardiology Associates (CCA), providing services to Samaritan Hospital in Troy, Albany Medical Center, and St. Peter’s Hospital in Albany. They shared the belief that there should be no barriers to the community seeking cardiac care.
