Return On Investment

Formal point-of-care ultrasound training has been scientifically proven to reduce missed cannulations. As such, your center will be able to successfully dialyze more patients. 

Your center will be more efficient, your patient satisfaction will improve, and you will eliminate lost revenue due to unsuccessful cannulations. 

Fewer dialysis catheter days and fewer readmissions reduces risk of the CMS ESRD Quality Initiative Program (QIP) 2% penalty. This can amount to a loss of $65,000 for the average dialysis facility.

Our research shows the hardware and training costs can be recouped in as little as 6 months. This calculation is based solely on overhead costs and loss of CMS billing. It does not include the QIP penalty.
