Many facilities receive Medicare reimbursement for wound care services, but few conduct a thorough cost analysis to compare actual expenditures to the reimbursement received. Our analysis often reveals significant discrepancies, with many facilities spending more than they are reimbursed by Medicare.

To assist you, we offer a comprehensive analysis of your current wound care practices, comparing billable products to actual Medicare Part B reimbursement. This analysis often highlights substantial costs associated with product procurement, inventory management, and receivables management.

By eliminating these costs through our program, you can significantly increase your monthly cash flow, depending on the number of residents eligible for our services. This can free up valuable resources for other critical areas within your facility.

Wound drainage is crucial for several reasons:

• Reduces infection risk: By removing excess fluid, bacteria, and other debris, drainage helps prevent infection.
• Promotes healing: Removing excess fluid allows for better blood flow to the wound site, which is essential for tissue repair.
• Reduces swelling: Drainage helps minimize swelling around the wound, which can impede healing.
• Provides a clean environment: A clean and dry wound environment is ideal for optimal healing.

Scabs play a crucial role in the wound healing process:  

• Protection: They act as a protective barrier, shielding the underlying wound from bacteria, dirt, and other external contaminants that could cause infection.
• Hemostasis: Scabs form from dried blood clots, which initially help stop bleeding.
• Scaffolding: They provide a temporary framework for the underlying tissue to regenerate and repair itself.
