Our report showed that this pharmaceutical could reduce blood system infection related costs for Medicare by 75% and eliminate the need for an expensive drug used to dissolve blood closts. The technology could also create more revenue for dialysis treatment centers as patients would be admitted less times to the hospital and more to the dialysis centers.
Primary Impact suggested not pursuing this technology until Medicare approves reimbursement and understands the resulting cost savings to Medicare of reduced hospital treatments for blood system infections.
