Introducing eCAP

If, during 90 days immediately following an in-patient initial total knee arthroplasty or initial total hip arthroplasty procedure where a Smith+Nephew primary hip or knee total joint system, PICO◊ 7 Single Use Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System (sNPWT) and ACTICOAT◊ Flex 7 Antimicrobial Barrier Dressing were used, your patient is readmitted as an inpatient to the same facility as a result of a surgery site infection or to revise the Smith+Nephew implant, we’ll refund an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price paid by the purchaser (net of rebates, amounts received under any additional warranties and other discounts) for the S+N total hip or total knee system, ACTICOAT Flex 7 Dressings and PICO sNPWT products.

An eCAP success story: Nearly zero readmissions2

A case study demonstrated how a decrease in readmissions was achieved by provider PPI for total joint arthroplasties conducted under eCAP, compared to published national average data.*2
