Enteral Nutrition has an integral role in HME. More than 400,000 people use feeding tubes in the U.S. each year, including infants, children and adults. Proper EN management by knowledgeable HME providers is critical to prevent malnourishment and negative health outcomes. Yet current market conditions create significant challenges to ensuring access.
This webinar will reference the white paper developed by EN stakeholders “Challenges in Enteral Nutrition Access & Management: Safeguarding Life-Sustaining Enteral Nutrition”, while walking through critical steps to help providers:
- Ensure access for our most vulnerable patients
- Advocate for the benefit
- Identify ongoing support and expertise
- Articulate to payers and legislators the value of services provided
