The use of Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) therapy is on the rise in the U.S. and worldwide as the population ages, as cardiovascular and respiratory illnesses increase, and as ECMO treatment indications expand. And both patients and hospitals are benefitting. ECMO is one of the top 5 highest-paying DRG codes today, offering profitable returns for hospitals and increased continuity of care and better outcomes for patients.
This whitepaper summarizes the financial benefits of ECMO and the patient care it provides, with tips for getting started with an ECMO program, optimizing reimbursements, and partnering with an experienced ECMO provider. The content covers:
The profit potential of ECMO programs
How ECMO programs increase patient care opportunities
Assessing the ECMO opportunity at your hospital
3 tips for getting started with an ECMO program
The necessity of accurate ECMO documentation for revenue
The value of an experienced ECMO partner
