It appears that there is a recent trend in examining how commercial hospital reimbursement compares to Medicare rates. Medicare determines reimbursement levels based on reports submitted and approved by the health system's leadership. Nationally, the average commercial reimbursement is around 260% of Medicare rates. To put it into perspective, if a hospital spends $10,000 on a patient's knee replacement surgery, they are reimbursed $26,000 by commercial payers. This amount is then passed on to patients through co-pays and deductibles. However, the average rates vary based on the state, ranging from under 200% to almost 700% of Medicare. Research by NASHP and Rand suggests that the break-even point for hospitals is around 127% of Medicare rates. There is a growing interest in setting reimbursement rates at around 200% of Medicare rates, which some courts have deemed reasonable and fair. The Consolidated Appropriations Act (CAA) now mandates that plan sponsors ensure fair and reasonable reimbursement rates are paid. In some states, this could lead to a reduction of roughly 40% in health system carrier revenues assuming a 200% rate.

Join us on June 14 for the 2024 AAMI Exchange, where we will host an exclusive 7-hour HTM Leadership Class. This class will be taught by a team of industry experts and feature new personalities introduced by the College of Biomedical Equipment Technology, including Mike Kritzman and Anna Baldwin. Mike and Anna will present a one-hour session focusing on leadership and change management. Leaders often face challenges arising from managing diverse people with varied backgrounds and expectations. Generational dynamics and different levels of experience can further complicate leadership roles. Additionally, leaders worldwide must navigate the challenges of motivating remote teams. The process starts with leaders looking inward. They need to develop a keen understanding of their own behaviors and communication styles. Leaders can inadvertently push people away and achieve the opposite of their goals simply because they are unaware of how their communication or behavior is perceived.

“AR in the OR will be a major win for surgeons and patients. Today, surgeons must constantly correlate what their hands are doing with what they see projected on a distant screen (MRI scans, live endoscopic and/or ultrasound feeds, and so on). With AR, they can see all of this information projected onto the patient throughout the procedure, providing greater precision and easier adoption of new techniques.” Our founder and CEO, Sam Glassenberg, was recently mentioned in the latest Forbes article showcasing companies that are reshaping the future of business by leveraging AR & VR.
