“After many months of diligence, HCA determined that Ion’s service was the best solution to manage the risk of sleep apnea for their OR service,” says Steve Burton, PhD, Ion’s president and founder. HCA is the largest hospital system in the United States, and its adoption of Ion’s service is a strong endorsement of the company’s turnkey process.
Ion Healthcare provides a proven clinical pathway to manage the risk of sleep apnea patients who present at your ASC; it is fully reimbursed by most insurance providers. Ion’s proprietary technology and clinical service model is simple to execute and will not disrupt your surgical case flow because the company provides the capital equipment and staff to execute the program so that your staff are not burdened with additional duties. There is no financial commitment if your ASC elects to execute the service as a quality improvement program; alternatively, an ASC or surgical partners can enter a joint-venture with Ion in order to benefit from another profit center in the delivery of Ion’s sleep apnea management services.
Ion has also announced that BioMedical Associates in Chicago, a strong partner with more than 75 partners in the Midwest, will serve as the company’s sales representatives for that territory. Ion looks forward to expanding its services in the region.
