Abstract
Over 30% Cost Savings to Payers and Patients Calculated from the BrainScope One Economic Analyzer Model (BEAM)
Escalating awareness of the short and long-term consequences of traumatic head injury, even when mild, has resulted in an increasing burden to the health care system to the extent of $76.5 billion annually. This white paper demonstrates potential cost reductions as high as 32.2%, shared between payers and patients when the BrainScope® One medical device is integrated into the patient care pathway.
Adoption of BrainScope One expands care access points for head injury to Urgent Care Centers (UCC) and Physician offices, more cost efficient and accessible environments. It can also improve patient triage in the Emergency Department (ED) by diverting patients from unnecessary CT scans. BrainScope One has been demonstrated to aid in more objective, accurate, rapid, and safer diagnosis of mild Traumatic Brain injury (mTBI/concussion), resulting in significant benefits across the healthcare system. This paper assesses BrainScope One’s impact on the health care system and specifically examines the potential cost savings to patients and payers using the BrainScope Economic Analyzer Model (BEAM). Utilizing realistic inputs, this model illustrates the significant opportunity for cost savings (as high as 32%) through adoption of BrainScope One.
