Pain Management and More ... The Avicenna
Class IV
Therapeutic Laser Technology for Neuromusculoskeletal Pain
Management
Testimonial -
Patient: Richard M. - Age: 78
Diagnosis: Severe Arthritis of the left hip;
Prognosis: Told by doctor that hip replacement
was only option;
Complaint: “Unbearable” left hip pain that does
not decrease with medication. The pain also interferes
with walking and wakes him up at night;
Outcome: “Within 15 minutes of the first
treatment, the pain subsided dramatically. After twenty
minutes, the treatment was over and I left the room
feeling a great deal relieved. By the fourth visit, I
was pleased to discover the pain relief lasted over the
weekend into Monday”. |
A non-surgical, side effect free, non-drug approach to treating
pain
Your clients & patients would pay out of pocket to eliminate
their pain with a simple series of non-painful
quick treatments
aiding in healing everything from Spinalspinocis to Neuropathy
Avicenna’s Class IV laser is not a “cold laser” or Low-Level
Laser Therapy (LLLT) device. It is a high-power, therapeutic
laser with the ability to stimulate accelerated healing energy
within a continuum of treatment depths from superficial to
extremely deep. This enables the accelerated treatment of
superficial injuries, sprains/strains, and deep intra-articular
tissues (inside of joints) unreachable by any other physical
therapy modality, or Class III “low-level“laser.
Class IV lasers
can treat the following conditions:
The
biological effects of laser therapy is the key to better patient
outcomes. Laser therapy aims to bio-stimulate injured
and
dysfunctional tissues to new growth & repair. Clinical trials of
therapeutic lasers indicate the following beneficial effects on
tissues and cells.
*Accelerated Soft & Hard Tissue repair
*Decreased
Inflammation
*Suppression
of Nociceptive Afferents
*Improved
Vascular Activity
*Reduced
Fibrotic Scar Tissue Formation
*Increased
Cellular Metabolic Activity
*Improved
Nerve Function
*Increase
Immune System Response
*Erasure of
Trigger Points
*Non-invasive Stimulation of Acupuncture Points
*Faster
Wound Healing
Implementing an Avicenna turnkey high power therapeutic laser
center of excellence is the
perfect vehicle for improving the
quality of your patient's care, as well as providing you with a
significant new source of passive revenue. Doctor's implementing
Avicenna's technology and
proprietary protocols are generously
getting reimbursed in either a cash or traditional insurance
reimbursement modeled practice. Either way, your success is
guaranteed.

High
Power Laser Therapy (HPLT) Delivers 100% Private Pay - Cash
Reimbursement
Because there is not a unique reimbursement code for HPLT the
following billing models are recommended.
To date over 75% of
Avicenna purchasers implement a cash only – private pay model.
It has been well
demonstrated in the majority of our users
offices that patients will gladly pay out of pocket for results.
Under this scenario reimbursement is always 100% and no
additional staffing is required to implement collections.
Cash
paying patients also generate cash paying referrals. Using this
model many patients will opt for longer
treatment times at a
greater frequency, especially when they are counseled that
results will come quicker
than what is allowable under
traditional insurance based protocols. Average per minute charge
is $5-8 with
the majority of patients opting for treatment
durations of 20-30 minutes because of the ability to achieve a
quicker positive outcome.
Insurance Reimbursement
Proprietary treatment protocols along with excellent results do
allow doctors seeking insurance reimbursement
to collect on an
average $50-75 billing under CPT code 97039 or 97799 per "unit"
of time. Avicenna recommends
providing meticulous notes on all
patients along with fully documenting progress using objective
outcome measurements.
FDA Clearance – CPT Codes
2002 marked the first year that the FDA granted clearance for
the marketing of therapeutic lasers in the US. Since that time,
the AMA has not dedicated a specific CPT code for the
reimbursement of laser therapy. Once therapeutic outcome studies
are published in recognized peer reviewed journals, this
information can be used to petition the AMA’s CPT advisory
committee for a new Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation code.
Avicenna Laser Technology has taken an aggressive stand in
promoting evidenced based treatment protocols to validate the
efficacy of Class IV laser therapy. Taking a passive, “wait and
see” approach would inevitably lead to further delays in
obtaining CPT coding due to the poor clinical outcomes generated
by “Low-level”, Class III laser systems.
Frequently Asked
Questions
Q: What is High Power Laser Therapy (HPLT)?
A: HPLT is a painless, safe, side effect free treatment for the relief of Neuro-musculoskeletal pain. There are many studies that show the effectiveness of laser therapy to promote rapid healing of a wound or injury. HPLT is a technological advancement to the older Low Level Laser Therapy or Cold Laser Therapy as it has the ability to deliver vastly larger amounts of healing light energy to much greater depths of penetration as well as being able to treat a vastly larger surface area than its predecessors.
Q: How long has laser therapy been utilized in pain management?
A: Laser therapy has been used in Europe for over 30 years.
Q: What type of medical conditions respond to Class IV high power laser therapy?
A: At the present time, HPLT is used primarily for the treatment of Neuro-musculoskeletal conditions. Clinicians in the field are also experiencing dramatic results for many types of wound healing.
Q: Are their any safety risks associated with Class IV laser therapy?
A: The Avicenna high power laser is extremely safe. However, it is not used over the eyes due to the sensitivity of the retina, therefore, all patients wear protective safety glasses during the treatment.
Q: Is their any pain or side effects associated with Class IV laser therapy?
A: The Avicenna high power laser is painless and has no side effects. It is completely safe. During treatment, the patient experiences a gentle warming effect, and at many times a profound feeling of relaxation.
