Innovative HealthCare - Enabling In-Office Procedures

In-Office Insurance Reimbursed Surgical Equipment Service

2005 marks the beginning of newly approved in-office CPT codes that encourages office procedures. Office procedures done with local anesthesia, (not I.V. sedation) saves patients time and money. Our service works in conjunction with in-office CPT codes that increases your professional compensation and eliminates wasting time in the O.R. IHCA provides the equipment, disposables, and a trained technician to set up and assist with questions. We do not require any upfront capital outlay, binding leases or agreements, simply call and schedule your case. IHCA will be hosting a hand on workshop lead by physicians experienced at performing the procedures in-office.
