Helping patients train for surgery earns $6.4M Health Care Innovation Award
The Michigan Surgical and Health Optimization Program (MSHOP) has earned a $6.4 million Health Care Innovation Award from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid for its work to lower surgery costs and help Michigan patients train for surgery.
Each year 45 million inpatient surgeries are performed in the U.S. Following a program to boost their physical ability and mindset, patients in MSHOP go home from the hospital sooner and the cost of their surgical care is less expensive than other patients.
