Center For Advanced Wound Care
Why Center for Advanced Wound Care?
The affordable care act has created incentives for Medicare, Medi-Cal, PPO’s and HMO’s to explore low-cost service delivery models, while delivering quality and safe care. More and more services are being shifted out of hospital settings into other cost-effective facilities. Center for Advanced Wound Care works in collaboration with your Primary Care Physician or Care Coordination department, addressing all aspects of care necessary to promote healing of a chronic wound. We know that providing quality care is a critical factor in prevention of hospital readmissions, risk mitigation, and cost management.
