AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM TESTING

TREAT THE CAUSE - NOT THE SYMPTOMS

Some practices seem to treat the symptoms (pain, dizziness, insomnia, depression, Erectile Dysfunction, fatigue, etc) instead of the cause.  Think back to when you were in medical school and were excited about treating the ANS - get excited again.

3 TESTS IN ONE

  • SUDOMOTOR FUNCTION - Tests the small nerve fibers in the bottom of the feet to detect Parasympathetic Dysfunction prior to the patient realizing they have symptoms.
  • ANS HRV Test - tests the sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves at the same time - letting you know whether the symptoms the patient is experiencing is caused by an imbalance in the ANS.
  • BASIC ABI - using plethsmography

3 CPT CODES

  • 95923 - Testing of autonomic nervous system function; sudomotor, including 1 or more of the following: quantitative sudomotor axon reflex test (QSART), silastic sweat imprint, thermoregulatory sweat test, and changes in sympathetic skin potential
  • 95921 - Testing of autonomic nervous system function; cardiovagal innervation (parasympathetic function), including 2 or more of the following: heart rate response to deep breathing with recorded R-R interval, Valsalva ratio, and 30:15 ratio
  • 93922 - Limited bilateral noninvasive physiologic studies of upper or lower extremity arteries, (eg, for lower extremity: ankle/brachial indices at distal posterior tibial and anterior tibial/dorsalis pedis arteries plus bidirectional, Doppler waveform recording and analysis at 1-2 levels, or ankle/brachial indices at distal posterior tibial and anterior tibial/dorsalis pedis arteries plus volume plethysmography at 1-2 levels, or ankle/brachial indices at distal posterior tibial and anterior tibial/dorsalis pedis arteries with, transcutaneous oxygen tension measurement at 1-2 levels)


(the codes you will bill will depend on not only what equipment you have, but what is medically necessary and what was performed)

EXCELLENT REIMBURSEMENT

  • 95923:  Avg Medicare Allowed:   134.20
  • 95921:  Avg Medicare Allowed: $ 94.22
  • 93922: Avg Medicare Allowed: $ 87.77

TYPICAL ALLOWED PER TEST:         Medicare:  $316.19   



TYPICAL RETURN ON INVESTMENT

Most primary care practices are seeing 20 patients a day, most of whom would qualify for this diagnostic test.   Based on an average acquisition cost of $37,500, plus the typical consumable cost of $3.10 per test, testing two patients a day (5 days a week), a typical client should expect:


Gross Income:                                                                           $14,058.45

Operating Expense Incl Lease & Consumables                $     961.54

Net Monthly Profit                                                                  $ 13,006.91

Annual Net Profit                               $  157,162.95 


2.8 Tests Per month to break even on Capital Lease


2.9 Months to Full Recovery on Investment


Annual ROI:                                      419%

Typical Mutual Funds                      10%


It's better to invest in yourself and your clinic!
