On-line Schedule Viewing

Make sure your surgeries are booked and confirmed without making a single phone call. IMI also offers on-line review of your surgical monitoring schedule in a HIPAA-secure environment.

Data Security and Storage

IMI transfers all real-time IOM data to a remote central location for professional oversight and interpretation via an encrypted virtual Private Network. This meets all HIPAA requirements.

Professional Oversight

Every case that is monitored by IMI has an overseeing neurologist or senior level neurophysiologist who is dedicated to confirming that the best possible information is being provided to the surgeon.

Reporting

At the end of each surgery, a comprehensive report is generated and sent to the hospital records department as well as the surgeon's office. The report includes numeric results and professional commentary interpreting the results for each modality that was tested during the surgery. All CPT codes and the number of units to be used in billing are also included to keep with IMI's insistence on open and auditable billing practices. Proprietary and easy to read reports highlight any abnormalities that were noted by the neurologist during the surgery. This allows the surgeon to quickly focus on those parts of the report that are of concern to the surgical outcome.

Cumulative reporting by case type or surgeon is also available.

Patient Care

Patient Information guides are provided at request to all surgeons' offices so that the patient is aware that neuromonitoring will be applied during their surgery and the reasons why it is important. The neurophysiologist will also introduce him or herself to the patient before the surgery to answer any questions that the patient may have about monitoring.
