Following APMA advocacy, CMS rescinded the regulations regarding appropriate use criteria for advanced diagnostic imaging in the 2024 Physician Fee Schedule Final Rule. APMA has previously educated members about this program which would have required burdensome steps for those ordering MRI, CT scans, or nuclear studies for Medicare Part B outpatients. Over the last several years, APMA representation communicated both in live meetings and in written form with CMS on multiple occasions explaining the tremendous burdens imposed by this program and asking that this program be rescinded.
