The looming cut in Medicare physician payments is scheduled to take effect on March 1. Members are urged to contact their senators and request their support to seize this opportunity to permanently repeal the sustainable growth rate (SGR) formula. The House has already passed legislation repealing the SGR and needs the Senate to act.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) cancelled an instruction it sent to its contractors last fall making policy changes for the date of service (DOS) and place of service (POS) for diagnostic tests. Transmittal 1823 would have required the actual POS and DOS of the professional component of a diagnostic test to be included on the claim, even when they differ from the date and location of the technical component.
