MotionTrakStart Testing. Prevent Falls. Save Lives.

The Vestibular Autorotation Test (VAT)/Electronystagmography (ENG) Combo testing system diagnoses patients for Vestibular or Central Nervous System problems. You can accurately diagnose a patient with a 25-30 minute in-office test that can be performed by a non-certified medical assistant. Once diagnosed, you’ll be able to refer your patient to the appropriate specialist –– saving the patient time, energy and effort. They’ll thank you. Plus, their insurer will reward you with a strong reimbursement of between $450 and $650.

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

mt_veron_x350.jpgPreventing a fall can dramatically reduce the overall cost of health care. After all, the more specific the diagnosis, the more effective the plan of care. This is why Medicare, Medicaid and private insurers are willing to compensate physicians for this type of testing. Through preventative medicine like these, we can help deter the mounting costs of caring for patients who are at risk of falling or suffering a traumatic injury.

To date, no diagnostic test has proven to be more valuable in determining a patient's true levels of Vestibular function than the VAT/ENG.

Spectra Medical Consulting offers a simple, cost effective, compact unit. It’s as easy to learn for most staff personnel as it is to operate, enabling a strong ROI to improve your bottom line.
