Chicago, IL, March 11, 2007 — Accelitech CEO Kerwin Brandt spoke as part of a panel on the future of outpatient healthcare at Outpatient Outlook: The Future of Healthcare, a conference held March 11 to 13 at Pinehurst Resort in Pinehurst, North Carolina. Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich was the keynote speaker.
Brandt's panel talked about how technology and joint ventures between hospitals and physicians are changing the way healthcare is delivered. "Treatment options in healthcare continue to evolve to become less invasive and more convenient for patients," said Kerwin Brandt, Accelitech CEO. "We are seeing hospitals and physicians collaborating to create market leading programs around cutting-edge technology in patient-centric settings."
Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) technology is one area that captures the essence of the market shift. The high cost SRS technology is extremely effective for treating cancers and functional neurological conditions. Industry experts predict that SRS treatment volumes will increase by 363 percent over the next 10 years. And as demand is driven by physician adoption, increases in cancer incidence, aging of the population and advances in technology, hospitals and physicians will continue to explore alternative structures for acquiring the technology and mitigating risk.
