I am seeking input on increasing revenue in the Outpatient arena. What exams are you doing at your facility that the insurance companies will pay for that don't fall into the usual anatomical areas of head, neck, chest, abd/pelvis.

What special or different exams/services are you providing to the public that has worked well and increased your bottom line?

What website/s exist that may provide input in this area?

Thanks.

Jim

Are you doing any CTAs or any 3D work?.. Medicare is considering paying for virtual colonoscopies as well.. seems that will eventually happen..

If you need any help along these lines please contact me at:

Yes, VC is something we are looking at and giving serious consideration to. We already have 3D software for the rendering.

Are there any other 'new' exams that we should be considering ?

Here's a good article I've had for awhile, which might be worth reading:
