The insert member has sufficient rigidity to maintain a deployed shape and sufficient resiliency to be compressed to a reduced diameter for delivery in a delivery sheath. A cross-sectional profile of the insert member is shaped to permit native leaflets to create a tight seal with sides (703a, 703b) thereof. The insert member includes a passageway extending therethrough along a longitudinal axis, and a valve member is disposed in the passageway. The valve member includes one or more flap members (712) defining a slit or opening (710), and the valve member allows blood flow in only one direction. The insert member includes an outer layer formed of a biocompatible material.8/8 702 7700 17. 70 16 1 --70 708 FIG. 13 703a -702 702 FIG. 14 7032 712' FIG. 15
