r/Neuromonitoring

Good morning my fellow IOM family getting political first thing this morning, but insurance companies are ignoring arbitration rulings and getting away with it.

IOM reimbursements are being denied and there are zero consequences for them.
A new bill would change that by actually penalizing insurers who refuse to pay. But it needs to get to a floor vote first and that means Congress needs to hear from us.

Hi guys, I had a question, im in NY/NJ area I’m really interested in IONM and would love to get into the field. I think what kinda scares me is that I have no neuroscience background like most people do. Am I able to get a future job without a bachelors in neuroscience? Because it seems like most require it. I would rather do the educational+clinicals route instead of the on the job training route. I already applied to two programs just waiting to hear back does everyone in the field have background in biology and neuroscience??? I already work in the OR area so I have a good stance on how that environment operates which I feel is good to have compared to someone who has never stepped foot in the OR, seen a surgery or worked in healthcare. My original plan was to go into POLYSOMNGRAPHY at a CC try to get registered in Poly, EEG and ekg(the program at the CC has you do classes in all 3 fields and clinicals so you’re able to sit for the boards at the end) but my overall end goal was to get into IONM. I don’t want that route only because by the time I start and finish the program it will be mid 2029 and I would want to work in poly for a year then go to eeg then ionm. Just a long path that I feel I will regret idk. Should I go to school for EEG first then later on do ionm ? Or just do ionm?

Thanks!!!

Hello everyone!!
