Abstract

The physician office offering imaging guided endovascular and minimally invasive interventional procedures is often referred to as an OBL (office based lab), OIS (office interventional suite), or OES (office endovascular suite). Initially, OBL's depended upon the national societies of interventional radiology (SIR), vascular surgery (SVS) and interventional cardiology (SCAI) to advocate for them. However, the OBL space needed a voice dedicated to advocating for the appropriate reimbursement of procedures in the OBL to allow the OBL to survive as a viable site of service and become integral to healthcare delivery in the US healthcare system. This need led to the formation of the Outpatient Endovascular & Interventional Society (OEIS). The society is multispecialty and ensures safety in outpatient care in all sites of service while maintaining a focus on the OBL. The mission of the OEIS is to advocate for patients to have the ability to choose their provider and be able to receive safe and effective healthcare in a more friendly and far less costly site of service for them.

门诊病人血管内治疗和介入治疗协会（OEIS）的代言人：起源、原则和历史视角

提供成像引导的血管内介入和微创介入手术的医生诊室通常被称为 OBL（诊室实验室）、OIS（诊室介入治疗室）或 OES（诊室血管内治疗室）。最初，OBL 依靠介入放射学会（SIR）、血管外科学会（SVS）和介入心脏病学会（SCAI）的倡导。然而，OBL 领域需要有一个专门的声音来倡导对 OBL 中的手术进行适当的报销，以使 OBL 能够作为一个可行的服务场所生存下去，并成为美国医疗保健系统中医疗保健服务不可或缺的一部分。这一需求促成了门诊病人血管内介入学会（OEIS）的成立。该学会由多个专科组成，在确保所有服务场所的门诊护理安全的同时，始终将重点放在 OBL 上。OEIS 的使命是倡导患者有能力选择自己的医疗服务提供者，并能在更友好、成本更低的服务场所接受安全有效的医疗服务。

期刊介绍： Interventional radiology is an area of clinical diagnosis and management that is highly technique-oriented. Therefore, the format of this quarterly journal, which combines the visual impact of an atlas with the currency of a journal, lends itself perfectly to presenting the topics. Each issue is guest edited by a leader in the field and is focused on a single clinical technique or problem. The presentation is enhanced by superb illustrations and descriptive narrative outlining the steps of a particular procedure. Interventional radiologists, neuroradiologists, vascular surgeons and neurosurgeons will find this a useful addition to the clinical literature.
