Why is the Multifunction Cardiogram™ procedure more costly than a typical ECG?
The Multifunction Cardiogram™ is not a conventional ECG — While the in-office testing procedure is nearly identical to a conventional resting ECG the detailed analysis performed by Premier Heart’s servers enables substantially more accurate diagnoses than can be made from conventional ECGs. The cost of Multifunction Cardiogram™ testing is actually significantly lower than other widely used techniques (Stress testing, CT Angiography) while the results are substantially more accurate. The cost of the Multifunction Cardiogram™ test also represents Premier Heart’s investment in research and development, including compiling the largest database of its kind to aid physicians in reaching rapid, accurate, evidence-based diagnoses and our ongoing commitment to research and development to improve the accuracy of this groundbreaking technology.
