Hospital budgets absolutely allow for expensive on-site equipment if it saves money in the aggregate budget. If folks will recall, the Annihilyzer is targeted at Hospital Acquired Infections, not COVID or oil and gas or fluid distribution.

Medicare does not pay hospitals to treat HAIs, that comes out of the budget of the hospital at a much greater cost than the Annihilyzer costs. This is actually a cost savings, and a very smart one. Furthermore, the Hospital Acquired Condition Reduction Program is a pay for performance program where the bottom 25% of hospitals as it relates to HAIs actually get an overall payment reduction of 1% on ALL MEDICARE DISCHARGES. That’s a loooootttt of money, way way more than an Annihilyzer costs.
