Mobile Swallow Studies
Our mobile imaging branch, Coastal Voice & Dysphagia Diagnostics provides fiberoptic endoscopic evaluations of swallowing (FEES), and they are passionate about being able to provide your facility with objective and measurable data to prove the medical necessity of speech therapy services, improve the accuracy and effectiveness of those services, and keep the patient comfortable by coming to his/her natural environment.
A clinical bedside evaluation cannot accurately detect or diagnose dysphagia. Imaging is required for an accurate diagnosis and prognosis. Fiberoptic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (FEES) is a cost-effective and convenient alternative to modified barium swallowing studies (MBSS) that are typically performed in hospitals. An endoscopic evaluation provides the imaging necessary to diagnose dysphagia, and develop patient-centered treatment plans to improve outcomes. No radiation exposure is required and no barium is used during the examination.
​
We provide services at 1/2 the cost of a Modified Barium Swallow Study (MBSS), and come to the patient's bedside to perform the evaluation. We provide same-day reports with color images and are available for ongoing dysphagia support to ensure best outcomes for your
