The OtoSight Middle Ear Scope gives pediatric providers the ability to show
patient’s parents exactly what’s going on in the middle ear with:
“What we’re doing is just having the technician or medical assistant do the screening of the middle ear.”
Dr. Gould teaches his medical assistants to use OtoSight. They perform the exam while he is spending extra time with other patients. He then utilizes the recording to go over the Middle Ear Scan with the patient, showing them exactly what he sees and what he is assessing.
“The parents get information that’s more definitive in the parent’s mind.”
Dr. Gould has learned to use the “spectrum of information” that he is now able to gain credibility with his pediatric patients and parents. Since he can show them Clear Objective Proof of what is going on in the middle ear, he feels he has earned additional authority in the parent’s eyes.
Dr. Gould has also used OtoSight to take advantage of missed opportunities for follow-up visits.
Sometimes, follow-up otitis media visits were pushed aside but now he encourages them because the examination is easier than ever. You can then bill for the followup visit and use of OtoSight.
