Yes. Here's what happened to me: several years ago one of my mentors that I respect a lot told me if I wanted to keep doing hearts I should quit my job and go back to fellowship. He said in the future hospitals will require Advanced cert to do hearts at all. Everyone said he was nuts, that will never happen. So almost 10 years out of residency I applied and went back....I interviewed at a ton of places afterwards and there were guys who had been doing hearts for 10-20 years being told they could either get the cert or their cardiac privileges would not be renewed, thus the reason they were hiring for cardiac. Seems insane to me, but it is happening. I should add- I really enjoyed that year. If you like cardiac and can swing it financially, it was worth the investment for me. Lots of good job offers afterward.
