Every surgery will be supported by a licensed neurologist, credentialed in the hospital where services are provided, who will serve to interpret the real-time data. This will be achieved through a secure, HIPAA-compliant internet connection established by the AMS technologist in the OR. The Interpreting Physician (IP) and technologist will be in communication before surgery begins and continually during the case. This allows for dialogue and alerts with recommendations for medical intervention if changes in test results should occur.

Oversight Is Best Practice

CMS guidelines require that data be interpreted by a physician real-time. If there is not an Interpreting Physician, the hospital and surgeon may become liable for not providing standard of care. The surgeon becomes liable for oversight of the technologist.
