where you have gotten your numbers. It costs almost nothing to
continuously monitor. Hospitals already have these machines. It
saves hospitals an average of $110,000 for every "code" they
avoid. As I said, the hospitals that are doing this, have gotten
down to almost zero. This is actually a case where everyone wins
I got the numbers from the article - read it. The $5000 is the
monthly amount of the $60k. I can't attest to the figures the
article presented, but the point is fixing the problem likely is
cheaper than: (a) lawyer costs of defending a lawsuit; (b)
thousands or millions in a lost damage claim.   Featured
