Physicians
Physicians are an integral part of the device management solution.
Choice, ease of administration and freedom from financial risk are critical to the physicians ability to provide services based solely on clinical judgment, in the most appropriate setting for the member.
Implantable Device ManagementSM brings structure and certainty to a market that has been riddled with reimbursement challenges over the last decade, which allows you – the Physician – to commit your time and staffing resources to the delivery of healthcare services.
Physician benefits include:
Physician choice maintained – IPG will work with physicians and manufacturers to ensure that you maintain a broad selection of devices and the procedural support physicians enjoy today. The IPG leadership team bring many years of experience and positive relationships with the manufacturer community.- Delivery is not interrupted, just simplified – IPG coordinates delivery of all equipment between manufacturer and facility. Our customized approach allows for a review of current delivery methods to determine efficiencies and opportunities for improvement and simplification. We understand that it is critical that you have the right device, at the right time and in the right setting.
- Freedom from financial risk – As the standard of care shifts and more procedures may be appropriately performed in an ASC environment, physicians need the assurance that they can operate on a profitable basis. Relieving physicians of the burden of costly implants allows them to make the place of service decision based solely on what is best for the member.
- Ease of Administration – IPG works directly with the payor assuming responsibility for all administrative functions including preauthorization, predetermination, billing and collection for the implantable device.
