Reimbursement for OCT screening – Ophthalmology Management

closed

Many practices are considering using OCT for screening. What do you need to know?

This article answers the following questions:

  • Why consider establishing an OCT screening program?
  • What reimbursement issues should we consider with a screening program?
  • How should we code?
  • May we repeat the screening test?
  • Since the test is non-covered as screening, does Medicare limit our charges?
  • If a screening test finds pathology and additional tests are ordered, would insurance then cover those tests?
