MSS is Sightpath’s division for cataract, YAG and glaucoma surgical services. Formerly “Midwest Surgical Services,” MSS outgrew its previous regional name, and is now simply “MSS”. As the industry leader, MSS serves facilities and surgeons in forty-one states. When a facility outsources cataract surgery, YAG Laser Capsulotomy, and Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) services to MSS, the surgeon has access to his or her choice of state-of-the-art equipment and instruments as well as the assistance of a highly skilled Certified Technician.
Together, MSS, medical facilities, Ophthalmologists, and partnering Optometrists are able to offer patients exceptional eye care close to home.
Benefits of Outsourcing Cataract, YAG and Glaucoma
Surgical Services
Patient
Patients are able to receive top quality surgical care performed with state-of-the-art equipment at a facility conveniently located near their home. They can rely on their trusted local Optometrist for pre- and post-operative care.
Ophthalmologists
Ophthalmologists interested in practice growth and generating additional revenue have their choice of state-of the-art equipment, instruments, supplies and IOLs with ongoing upgrades as technology and preferences change. NBSTSA certified cataract Surgical Technicians and SLT Technicians provide reliable, consistent support, and the MSS Practice Support Program including marketing assistance and materials can help increase surgical volume.
Optometrists
Optometrists are able to offer patients full service eye care in their own community. Postoperative care can be performed locally and maintained within the practice, offering the potential for greatly increased revenue. The MSS Practice Support Program, which includes marketing assistance and patient education materials, assists in growing surgeon/O.D./facility patient volume.
Facilities
Facilities enjoy professionally managed cataract surgery, with no capital investment, costly purchase orders, maintenance fees, service agreements, or inventory management. MSS is brand-neutral and provides a wide array of state-of-the-art equipment, instruments, supplies and IOLs, with ongoing upgrades as technology and preferences change. MSS promotes efficiency, flexibility, and case success. MSS marketing support can help the facility increase community awareness, strengthen community relations, and increase case volume resulting in increased revenue.
