U.S. healthcare is changing and new technologies are being confronted by greater challenges from government and private payers for coverage and appropriate payment. Rules from third party payers are changing quickly and products that were historically adopted for coverage are facing new barriers and greater enforcement of existing, unwritten rules or policies.  LSI works closely with clients to understand how the system works and to navigate the complexities and vagaries of coding, coverage and payment.  The educational component is particularly important as OUS companies bring products from a single payer, government-based healthcare system into the larger, more complex U.S. healthcare system.
