Overview:

For Medical Device/Healthcare reimbursement, there are countless factors at play. One factor within your control is design: a strong reimbursement strategy begins with a well-informed device design. Because of cost-cutting measures in healthcare, it is important to always be cognizant of costs while at the same time honoring innovative device designs that could potentially save more lives. 

Tom KraMer helps you balance these factors to optimize your device’s innovation along with its ability to help as many people as possible.
