Orders for Diagnostic Imaging Tests
Question: I’ve read there are new diagnostic imaging test requirements that must be met for referring physicians. What do we need to do to be following Medicare’s Clinical Decision Support (CDS) mandate?
Answer: The new CDS mandate does not impact testing services by ophthalmologists. These orders are for services such as MRIs, CT and PET Scans.
