Impact Healthcare One-Eighty Services

Welcome to Impact Healthcare Management, your new partner in addressing the substance dependency issue in your community. We are a national provider of medical withdrawal management services, and we are here to help you tackle this pervasive community health need. We collaborate with hospitals across the country to provide their communities with a solution for medical withdrawal management. Our unique hospital-based inpatient medical service is called One-Eighty.

What is One-Eighty?

One-Eighty is an inpatient medical service designed for withdrawal from alcohol, opioids, and other drugs, including prescription medications. The service lasts for an average of 3 days and is covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and most commercial insurance plans. It's important to note that One-Eighty is a medical patient service and not a psychiatric or behavioral care service. It's a medical service for acute withdrawal, which means these are regular medical patients, not patients in advanced stages of withdrawal who need emergency care.

How does it work?

Our service provides a smooth service flow for patients and providers. We manage phone calls and inquiries through a local service number established with your hospital. We screen potential patients for medical criteria and method of payment to ensure qualification. Once qualified, we verify payment benefits, complete pre-cert authorizations, and schedule admissions. We provide best-practice treatment protocols for care team education, training, and delivery of the service, and assess withdrawal severity based on industry-standard InterQual and Milliman criteria. We also perform tailored discharge planning for every patient in need and follow up for one year.

Why Work With Us?

One-Eighty provides an ideal opportunity for hospital executives to create a new revenue stream while meeting this community health need. By partnering with us, your hospital prospers while saving lives in your community at the same time. Substance abuse is on the rise, and people need help. We see the positive impact of our service every day in the communities we serve, and we'd love to work with you to see the same transformation in your community.

What Makes Us Unique?

We provide a complete turnkey operation at every client facility. Our medical withdrawal service treats patients who have no prior psych diagnosis and no unstable psych needs, making us the perfect fit for them. On the client side, we're a case management service for those patients, taking care of every aspect of service management other than direct patient care. We provide physicians and nurses with proven treatment protocols and assessments, so all they need to do is follow along.

What You Can Expect

As a client, you can expect several clinical and financial metrics for success. One-Eighty carries very low risk, with no capital investment, no renovations, no upfront costs, and an easy "out-clause" in every contract. You can also expect significant revenue, with additional 5-40 admissions per month with a profit margin of 30-60%. We provide best-practice treatment protocols to educate, train, and deliver the service, extensive training, and verification of payment benefits and pre-cert authorizations. Our service has zero overhead costs, as your hospital utilizes existing overhead - physicians, nurses, and available med/surg beds to deliver care. We also offer geographic exclusivity, and community education and awareness activities to support the service.
