Patient comes in for annual diabetic check-->camera is set up near weight, height and vitals--> technician (can be anyone) enters patient info in database-->technician touches screen for machine to find pupils and is completely automated from there--> AI generated report in less than a minute letting patient and provider know if patient has more than moderate diabetic retinopathy
I'm here to help! I can help with implementation, development the program, bridging the gap with referrals, can offer second opinions on retinal photos, and give primary care providers guidance. Pictures are worth a thousand words. In my experience patients have diabetes and think they are totally fine until end stages of diabetes. When patients see a photo and have a provider communicate and educate that diabetic retinopathy is present in the eye, it can give patient motivation to change their lifestyles.
The device costs $1550 per month which includes full implemenation and setup and is leased year to year.
If you would like Dr. Meyer's concierage service to bridge the gap between providers and patients, provide personal assistance for referrals, offer telehealth visits the cost is $2000 per month.
Yes your clinic can bill insurance with cpt code 92229.
The most important thing is you are saving someones vision by performing the screenings. Secondly, your clinic is transitioning to value based care, hitting metrics, and not getting dinged for diabetic patients not getting their annual diabetic screenings.
Don't hesitate to reach out and email me, I'm here to help!
