Frequently, the warning signs and symptoms of Sudden Cardiac Arrest are masked or misdiagnosed. The ATS HeartCheck can help detect congenital and genetic heart conditions that don’t show up during a regular checkup or sports physical.
Each child receives an EKG and Echocardiogram (heart ultrasound) with results provided by board-certified pediatric cardiologists. These potentially life-saving tests normally cost in excess of $1500 but are being made available for the low cost of $129. Additional discounts are available for families that qualify.

Frequently Asked Questions:
- What tests are included? The ATS HeartCheck includes an electrocardiogram (EKG) and echocardiogram (heart ultrasound).
- Can health insurance be used to pay for this? Health insurance will not cover voluntary testing like these, whether done in a hospital or by ATS. These are the same tests you would get at the hospital or cardiologist’s office without the hassles or excessive costs, often exceeding $1500.
- How often should my child get their heart tested? New research out of the University of London indicates youth should have regular heart screenings. After their initial screening, they should receive a follow-up screening at age 16, 18, 20, and 25.
There are a limited number of appointments available so make your appointment before it’s too late.

“It is extremely hard to put into words what ATS has done for us. We had what we thought to be our completely healthy kids tested a few years ago. Much to our surprise and shock, they found a large hole in Riley’s heart that required surgery to repair. The surgeon told us it was good that the hole was detected because Riley was a walking stroke waiting to happen. We are forever grateful we took advantage of the opportunity and think everyone should do the same because you may never know what is going on inside your child until it’s too late.” – Amy Ebert
