Benefits of Using AAA Wound Care
for Administrators
Cost Efficiency
The most recent estimate for the cost of wound care for the US market was $3.35 billion in 2019. We help nursing homes maintain financial competitiveness by avoiding use of cost-ineffective therapy.
Employee Retention
We recognize treatment nurses to be the central pillar of excellent wound care. We do all we can to decrease the stress of that position, simplify daily workflow and documentation and provide the proper tools they need.
PDPM
Most administrators understand that PDPM now allows SNFs to capture the value of wound care provision, leading many nursing homes to change their stance in admitting patients with complex wounds. We have helped several nursing homes make this transition into becoming excellent wound care centers. Our documentation is designed to readily provide the data points that the MDS personnel needs to maximally capture the value of wound care at your facility.
