Critical elements to building an effective wound care center Paul J. Kim, DPM, Karen K. Evans, MD, John S. Steinberg, DPM, Mark E. Pollard, MHSA, Christopher E. Attinger, MD Journal of Vascular Surgery Volume 57, Issue 6, Pages 1703-1709 (June 2013) DOI: 10.1016/j.jvs.2012.11.112 Copyright © 2013 Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions

Fig This chart reflects inpatient (as the primary admitting team and consultations) and outpatient clinic visits by providers of the MedStar Georgetown University Hospital Center for Wound Healing and Hyperbaric Medicine. Initially, a single plastic surgeon provided all of the wound care within the hospital from 1999 to 2004. In 2004, a podiatrist was added as a provider. In late 2010, a second podiatrist was added as a provider along with the opening of hyperbaric chambers. In 2012, a second plastic surgeon was added as a provider. Note the marked increase between 2007 and 2008, which reflects the opening of a designated space within MedStar Georgetown University Hospital. Prior to this, the wound center space was shared with another specialty. The 2012 numbers are based on one-half year projections. The y axis reflects numbers in the thousands. The x axis reflects fiscal year dates 1999-2012. This information was derived from evaluation and management billing codes.
