Tap into your Entrepreneurial Spirit with the Business Opportunity of Mobile MBSS
We have developed a resource manual and consulting program to help you get started providing mobile MBSS
in your area.
"I
think the manual has helped us look at the reality of what's it's going to take to start this business, and it has given us
some tools with which to move forward. Speech therapists get no business training as a rule, so this manual has helped
me tremendously in looking at business plans and thinking about numbers and logistics, etc. Of course, I've barely scratched
the surface of the manual at this point, and I'm sure it will continue to prove useful in each stage of this start-up. The
manual is definitely worth buying if you're serious about this business." Elizabeth B starting up in Tampa
As we continue to realize the great need our communities have
for dysphagia consultations, especially Modified Barium Swallow Studies conducted onsite at the patients' place of residence,
we recognize the excellent business opportunity Speech-language Pathologist have to provide this service in their communities.
As experienced health executives at buidling national clinical organizations, we wanted to provide an infrastructure
to assist our fellow SLP professionals to easily start-up mobile dysphagia services in their communities. Such an
infrastruture can bring access to needed capital, reduce the cost of a start-up and reduce the time that our affiliates get
to profitability.
Additionally, as clinical professionals, we also wanted to assure our affiliates were providing
the highest quality of care, assessments and treatement plans to their community clients and patients. This infrastuture
will also give affiliates access to relationships already developed with national healthcare clients.
Medicare
and other payors are also important customers and assuring compliance with their regulations for providing services to their
members is a key component to getting to profitability quickly and staying on top of the reimbursement issues specific to
the services we provide.
We are in the beginning stages of developing the association,
but please contact us if you are interesting in starting up a mobile dysphagia imaging service in your community. If you are
a well estabilished moblie dysphagia imaging organization, we would like your participation to provide leadership and experience
to other affiliates.
Our objective is to facilitate entreprenuerial efforts, continue the growth of mobile dysphagia
imaging services throughout the US, standardize the quality-of-care, and collaborate on educating the public and the health
care community on the prevelance of dysphagia in our population. This includes an understanding of the clinical importance
of conducting Modified Barium Swallow Studies to appropriately assess patient's status and recommend customized treatment
plans for each patient.
