Abstract:
The physician office offering imaging guided endovascular and minimally invasive interventional procedures is often referred to as an OBL (office based lab), OIS (office interventional suite), or OES (office endovascular suite). Initially, OBL\'s depended upon the national societies of interventional radiology (SIR), vascular surgery (SVS) and interventional cardiology (SCAI) to advocate for them. However, the OBL space needed a voice dedicated to advocating for the appropriate reimbursement of procedures in the OBL to allow the OBL to survive as a viable site of service and become integral to healthcare delivery in the US healthcare system. This need led to the formation of the Outpatient Endovascular & Interventional Society (OEIS). The society is multispecialty and ensures safety in outpatient care in all sites of service while maintaining a focus on the OBL. The mission of the OEIS is to advocate for patients to have the ability to choose their provider and be able to receive safe and effective healthcare in a more friendly and far less costly site of service for them.
摘要:
提供成像引导的血管内和微创介入程序的医生办公室通常被称为OBL(基于办公室的实验室)。OIS(办公室介入套件),或OES(办公室血管内套件)。最初,OBL依赖于国家介入放射学学会(SIR),血管外科(SVS)和介入心脏病学(SCAI)倡导他们。然而,OBL空间需要一个专门的声音来倡导对OBL中的程序进行适当的报销,以使OBL能够作为可行的服务场所生存下来,并成为美国医疗保健系统中医疗保健服务不可或缺的一部分。这种需求导致了门诊患者血管内和介入学会(OEIS)的形成。该协会是多专业的,并确保所有服务场所的门诊护理安全,同时保持对OBL的关注。OEIS的使命是倡导患者有能力选择他们的提供者,并能够在更友好且成本更低的服务场所为他们提供安全有效的医疗保健。
