Who is eligible to participate in INTERMACS®?
Any medical center in the United States that has an active ventricular assist device therapy program is eligible to contribute to INTERMACS®. Your medical center must be certified to participate in INTERMACS®. To be certified, you are required to send at least one staff member (but not more than two) for training on all aspects of INTERMACS®. Additionally, you must identify a Principal Investigator from your facility and we strongly encourage your PI to attend our one day training session.
