The typical Neurologist in the USA sees hundreds of patients each year with acute and/or chronic onset of dizziness, vertigo, ataxia and a range of movement disorders. These conditions may range from acute onset conditions including; BPPV, vestibular migraine, vestibular neuritis, stroke, and mTBI/concussion to chronic conditions such as multiple sclerosis and Parkinson’s.
What if you could take advantage of this flow of patients and efficiently manage them with a medical extender. With AIB’s protocols, neurodiagnostic vestibular testing within your office will allow quality patient care, and great outcomes, in an efficacious, and profitable manner with minimal equipment and space.
How do I get started?
A comprehensive neurodiagnostic suite can be set-up in your facility in as little as 100 square feet. Equipment recommendations are based upon your individual facility’s needs, what will directly generate income, and what will produce the best outcome measures for the patient. Testing may be performed by a trained medical extender (AIB will provide training and certification).
Covered by Medicare and Most Private Insurances
Shown is a diagram of the most common diagnostic CPT codes and corresponding reimbursement. Physicians and health systems are being evaluated via Medicare Quality Scores (MIPS) for Fall Risk Assessment and Plan of Care. The testing and evaluation you will be trained to perform will satisfy this requirement.
What do I need?
- Exclusive AIB Center of Specialty Care (CSC) licensing agreement
- AIB proprietary report writing software with Gans Logic Tree
- Equipment recommendations are based upon your individual facility’s needs, highest income generation, and produce the best outcomes for the patient.
What about Rehabilitation?
