How It Works

Step 1 - Upload Your Records, or use the 24-Hour Verus Overnight Mail-In Kit

Upload your medical records and imaging through our encrypted portal, or request a one of our overnight mail-in kits.

Our AI intake agents instantly organize your labs, imaging, and clinical notes into a clean, chronological timeline for the surgeon's review, as well as your clinical imaging.

Every file is then manually reviewed by a Verus surgeon, or by our multidisciplinary heart team.

Step 2 - Physician Review

Your case is then thoroughly reviewed by a world-class cardiac surgeon, cardiologist, or both.

Recommendations are stratified according to the latest national societal guidelines, institutional benchmarking, and your personal cardiac anatomy.

Step 3 - Virtual Consultation

You’ll then meet directly with your reviewing team for a secure, 60-120 minute Zoom consultation.

Family members are welcome and encouraged to join. Our AI ambient scribe will take notes, so the doctor(s) can focus on your needs, to recommend a treatment plan aligned with your goal, not someone else's.

Every question is answered. Every risk is discussed. All options are laid out clearly on the table - so your incision becomes your decision.

Step 4 - MyVerus Report Delivered

You’ll receive your final MyVerus^TM Report as an AI-enhanced, blockchain-verified report with an SHA256 hashtag.

This is your personal roadmap - built for clarity, not compliance.

Step 5 - Your Decision, Empowered

By the end of our process, you'll get much more than a second opinion - you'll get clarity, and a management strategy including a treatment plan aligned with your goals.
