Fountain Health Announces Full Coverage on Neurological Imaging
The company is now the first and only health insurance platform to provide complete coverage for ground-breaking, early diagnostic testing that includes artificial intelligence (AI)-powered analysis of brain imaging
NAPLES, Fla., November 15, 2022 (Newswire.com) - Fountain Health is proud to officially announce 100 percent coverage of Combinostics cMRI™ and cDSI™ — the industry-leading AI-enabled neurological imaging and decision support AI solutions for the early detection, diagnosis, and ongoing management of neurological disorders.
With an increasing ageing population, the U.S. has an urgent need to address the high prevalence of age-related dementia, which is expected to increase from 57 million to 85 million by 2030. Adding to the severity of the issue are the challenges with accurately differentiating between dementias and the exponentially high cost of diagnosis and treatment. In addition, multiple sclerosis (MS), is the second most expensive chronic condition in the U.S., costing $28 million in diagnosis and treatment annually.
Combinostics' AI-powered platform offers tools and software to support clinicians in the early detection, differential diagnosis, and ongoing management of patients with neurodegenerative and neuroinflammatory disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, dementias, MS, traumatic brain injuries, and epilepsy. The cMRI™ application within supports radiologists with AI-enabled imaging quantification, while the cDSI™ application combines and analyzes key patient and demographic data to support neurologists in diagnosis, testing decisions, prediction of disease trajectory, and treatment management. The company's groundbreaking Dementia Differential Analysis and clinically focused cMRI reports facilitate patient management as well as communication between radiologists, neurologists, patients, and their caregivers. A confident, accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment can have a significant impact on patient and caregiver well-being and quality of life throughout the disease course.
"Full coverage of cMRI and cDSI is just another avenue for Fountain Health's commitment to saving lives through preventative health," says Robert J. Rossiter, CEO of Fountain Health Insurance.
Fountain Health works alongside the world-class medical team at Fountain Life to provide their clients with access to life-altering tests and diagnostics. "While the best medical minds are working every day to learn more about neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, we've always known that everyone's best chance at treatment and management of symptoms is early detection," says Dr. William Kapp, CEO of Fountain Life. "Making life-altering testing like cMRI and cDSI accessible to more people is exactly what is needed to change the narrative around the treatment of these disorders."
"We are thrilled to partner with Fountain Health, and we look forward to supporting their clinicians and patients," said Richard Hausmann, CEO of Combinostics. "This is an exciting step forward to provide the best possible care for patients with neurological disorders."
