AMO Helps the 50 million Uninsured in the U.S. by Saving them 60-80% Off The Cost of Surgery

PR Log (Press Release) – Nov 06, 2008 – American Medical Outsourcing is a non-profit organization that has brokered the cost of surgery with hospitals located in the heartland of the U.S.  AMO focuses on Heart Surgeries and Joint Replacements, but there are many treatments available. The reason AMO focuses on these two particular treatments is because Heart Disease is the number one killer (500,000) of American women today, and the escalating age of the Baby Boomers that need hip/knee replacements is staggering. In addition, the age demographic of these potential patients means that they probably have pre-existing conditions which will not allow them to be covered by insurance in order to receive the much needed treatment. AMO is willing to help all of the people who need assistance nationwide. With 50+ million people who are under/uninsured in the U.S., society is on the verge of an epidemic, and because of economic crises, this problem does not look like it will be resolved anytime soon.

AMO is a diminutive company, but it is making a substantial impression. Located in Wichita, Kansas, AMO recognizes the need for relief for the people that cannot afford major medical treatments. This is the very reason why www.amocare.com was established. Most middle- and lower-class Americans cannot afford to pay $45K-$55K for a heart bypass or joint replacement surgery, but a $10K-$13K surgery seems much more likely. “I understand that even this amount ($10K-$13K) will be hard to gather for some, but the likelihood of raising, borrowing, or collecting this amount is much more feasible than the alterative” says Frank Mitchell, the Founder and CEO of AMO. The assistance that AMO offers is not limited to the significant discounts or savings. AMO educates the patient on the doctors’ experience and the locations that the patient chooses to best suit their needs. AMO also assists the patient with gathering the necessary medical records which the doctor needs to proceed with the treatment, as well as finding the most affordable airfare, hotel, and transportation while in the chosen location.

If you are worried about the quality of treatment, don’t. Just because there are significant savings, the care is not being compromised. The performing doctors are all American Board Certified and well experienced in the treatments being performed. AMO will provide the doctors’ educations and qualifications upon the patient’s request, so that the patient will be able to choose the doctor best suited for the patient. The hospitals are all top-of-the-line, have state-of-the-art equipment, and the medical devices (implants) are the best in the market. These great facilities and savings are the reasons why AMO is in discussions with Woman’s Heart Foundation, March of Dimes, Hospital of Hope, EmpowHer, and Music for Heart, in hopes of forming partnerships.
