About Us

Start Testing. Prevent Falls. Save Lives.

The Vestibular Autorotation Test (VAT)/Electronystagmography (ENG) Combo testing system helps identify patients at risk for falling as well as diagnose patients with dizziness and balance disorders. The test is noninvasive and takes only 25-30 minutes to complete. The test can be performed by a non-certified medical assistant and the results can read immediately. Per test reimbursements range between $250 and $588 + depending on your location.

Preventing falls improves the life of a patient and often saves lives.

As the overall population continues to get older and more and more people become at risk for falling, preventative testing systems like the VAT/ENG Combo will take center stage in the battle to manage healthcare costs. Don't wait until one of your patients suffers a traumatic fall related injury to determine how best to help them. Join the growing list of medical professionals that are helping their patients while also helping themselves.
