Frequently Asked Questions

How does the TM Flow device enhance patient care for older adults and those with a history of smoking or circulation problems?2024-06-26T20:24:37+00:00

For older adults and individuals with a history of smoking or circulation problems, the TM Flow device is particularly beneficial. It performs the ankle-brachial index (ABI) test, which is recommended by the American Heart Association for adults aged 50+ with such histories and all adults over 70 years old. This test helps in the early detection of peripheral artery disease (PAD), enabling timely management and treatment. The TM Flow device’s comprehensive assessments ensure that patients receive accurate diagnoses and appropriate care, improving overall health outcome.

What are the benefits of using the TM Flow device in a medical practice?2024-06-26T20:24:23+00:00

The TM Flow device offers numerous benefits for medical practices, including non-invasive and accurate testing, early detection of autonomic and arterial dysfunctions, and comprehensive diagnostics that reduce the overall cost of patient care. Additionally, the device’s tests are easy to bill with multi-code diagnostics, making it a valuable investment for enhancing patient care and optimizing practice efficiency. It also supports compliance with standards of care recommended by leading health organizations.

Is the TM Flow device covered by insurance?2024-06-26T20:24:12+00:00

Yes, the TM Flow device is covered by Medicare and most private pay carriers. Specific CPT codes, such as 95921 for cardiovagal innervation and 93923 for ankle-brachial pressure index, ensure that the diagnostics are easy to bill. Coverage and reimbursements may vary depending on the Medicare locality, but the comprehensive diagnostics offered by the TM Flow device are widely recognized and supported by insurance providers.

Why is autonomic nervous system testing important for diabetes and cardiovascular patients?2024-06-26T20:23:56+00:00

Autonomic nervous system testing is crucial for diabetes and cardiovascular patients because it helps in the early detection of autonomic neuropathy, which is a common complication in these conditions. Early detection through ANS testing allows for timely intervention and management, reducing the risk of further complications. The American Diabetes Association recommends ANS testing as a standard of care for patients with Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, highlighting its importance in effective diabetes management.

What is the TM Flow device and how does it work?2024-06-26T20:23:37+00:00

The TM Flow device is an advanced, non-invasive diagnostic tool designed to perform a series of tests that aid in the identification and early detection of autonomic nervous system (ANS) and arterial dysfunctions. It provides quantitative assessments of the ANS, helping to distinguish between early and late stages of autonomic neuropathy. The TM Flow device is particularly valuable for cardiovascular and diabetic autonomic neuropathy (DAN) testing, making it an essential tool in diabetes management and cardiovascular assessments.

TM Flow is a medical device company that focuses on the health of the body, mind and heart. Founded in 1998 by Dr. Albert Maerek, the company has developed a number of products that help treat various conditions, such as TM Flow machines in Boston, Massachusetts.

Sudomotor Testing

If you are a health care provider and have questions about TM Flow, please contact us at [email protected]

As mentioned above, when testing sudomotor function with TM Flow we:

  • Use the results to confirm or rule-out underlying symptoms of dry skin conditions. By comparing the data collected on each side of your palm, your doctor can determine whether there is a significant difference in sweating between your hands. If so, this may indicate a dysfunction of sympathetic nerves which control sweat glands in our bodies.
  • Offer additional information about how well blood flow is being controlled by our autonomic nervous system (ANS). This can help us understand more about how different diseases affect ANS function as well as identify potential causes for other abnormalities seen during other tests such as heart rate variability analysis (HRV).

Diagnostics

A sudomotor testing examination will help to diagnose autonomic neuropathy, a common symptom in Type 1 diabetes mellitus. It is also used as a diagnostic test for diabetic neuropathy and other types of nerve damage.

Sudomotor testing measures a person’s sweating ability by noting the rate at which their sweat glands respond to stimuli. This information can be used to determine whether or not an individual has any problems with their autonomic nervous system, which controls various bodily functions such as heart rate, blood pressure and digestion.

Neuropathy

Neuropathy is damage to the peripheral nervous system, or PNS. The PNS is made of nerves that run from your spinal cord (the central nervous system) through your brain and down your spinal column through each arm and leg. These nerves are responsible for controlling movement and sensation in the body. Neuropathy can affect the feet, hands, arms, legs, or any other part of your body where there are nerve endings that send messages back to your brain.

It’s estimated that 10% to 15% of Americans experience neuropathy at some point in their lives. The most common causes are diabetes and alcoholism; however various viruses also cause neuropathy with similar symptoms as those listed below:* Pain in one area* Tingling sensation* Burning sensations* Loss of feeling in an area

Reimbursements

Reimbursement programs are a great way to make your TM Flow machine more affordable for patients. Many patients have insurance coverage that covers at least part of the cost of a tilt table test, and you can even offer them a discount if they pay out-of-pocket.

There are two ways to get reimbursed:

  • If you’re an employee at one of our clinics, our accounting department will submit your claim for you.
  • If you work independently or in another clinic, we recommend using third-party billing agencies like Billing Assist and Integrated Medical Billing (IMB). These companies will send claims directly to insurance companies on behalf of patients who purchase their services from other medical providers like chiropractors or acupuncturists (or those who undergo examination tests on their own).

TM Flow helps to keep track of your health.

TM Flow helps to keep track of your health. You and your doctor can see the flow of your blood, heart rate, and other vital signs during a visit. The data collected in real-time is stored in the cloud and can be accessed by both you and your doctor at any time.

This means that when you go to see your physician, they will have access to everything related to your health that has been gathered throughout the day. This way they can make better decisions about how best to treat you based on all available information rather than just what they have learned from their previous appointments with patients who had similar conditions as yours or even who don’t have any serious ailments at all!

With TM Flow, there’s no need for doctors’ visits anymore because everything has already been recorded online so now all they’ll need do is load it up–it’s great news indeed!

What’s more? Researchers will also benefit from this new technology since now there are no longer limits placed on their research due . . .

Conclusion

TM Flow is a great way to monitor your health, especially if you suffer from neuropathy or other issues that make it difficult for you to feel how much sugar is in your blood. The machine will tell you exactly how much sugar is in your body so that you can keep track of how well your treatments are working.
