Our Services
We provide consulting and educational services to support practices in building compliant, high-quality, and profitable POCUS programs so that their clinicians can provide top-notch patient care. To that end, we provide consultation on the use and operation of ultrasound equipment, as well as, ultrasound billing.
Our solutions address two main barriers to POCUS adaptation, lack of competency and infrastructure.
