Medicare OK clears sales hurdle for heart surgery simulation software
Medicare will now reimburse nearly $1,000 per procedure for heart surgery planning software from an Ohio State University spinoff – clearing a hurdle for increasing sales to hospitals.
Dasi Simulations LLC’s software – “3D predictive model generation for preplanning of a cardiac procedure” – was added to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Service list of reimbursement codes as of Jan. 1.
