Agreement Expands Nociscan Access to John Keller, MD, a Leading Neurosurgeon and Aclarion Medical Advisor, and the Patients he Serves in Central Michigan
BROOMFIELD, CO, Aug. 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Aclarion, Inc., (“Aclarion” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: ACON, ACONW), a healthcare technology company that is leveraging biomarkers and proprietary augmented intelligence algorithms to help physicians identify the location of chronic low back pain, announced today it has established a commercial agreement with Sheridan Community Hospital in Sheridan, Michigan. The agreement brings Nociscan to central Michigan and leading neurosurgeon, John Keller, MD.
“As I work through how to best treat my patients, I’m excited to work with Sheridan Hospital and Nociscan to continue to develop safe, noninvasive, and cost-effective tools to help in the precise identification of disc pain,” said John Keller, MD, Neurosurgeon. “Building upon the evidence that is already mounting in favor of using MR spectroscopy and Nociscan is important work that I’m enthusiastic to undertake.”
Chronic low back pain (cLBP) is a global healthcare problem with approximately 266 million people worldwide suffering from degenerative spine disease and low back pain. Aclarion’s Nociscan solution is the first evidence-supported SaaS platform to noninvasively help physicians distinguish between painful and nonpainful discs in the lumbar spine. Nociscan objectively quantifies chemical biomarkers demonstrated to be associated with disc pain. When used with other diagnostic tools, Nociscan provides critical insights into the location of a patient’s low back pain.
“At Sheridan Community Hospital, we are committed to bringing dedication and expertise to provide individual-based professional health care for the families in our community – and beyond,” says Lili Petricevic, CEO of Sheridan Community Hospital. “We are thrilled to engage with Aclarion and bring their innovative solution, Nociscan, to our community. Low back pain affects our community and Nociscan will be a valuable decision support tool when choosing treatment options.”
Aclarion has recently announced insurance coverage in the UK from leading insurers. Introducing Nociscan in markets like Sheridan continues the progression of providing access as a step on the path to payer coverage in the US.
