Overview

Join SCAI's panel of experts to discuss recent and anticipated changes to Medicare coverage policies for TAVR, along with the introduction of new CPT codes for transcatheter tricuspid procedures. Coverage revisions can affect patient eligibility, claim submission, coding selection, and reimbursement, which may lead to billing errors, delayed reimbursement, increased administrative burden, and potential barriers to accessing care. Gain actionable strategies to improve coding accuracy, documentation, and reimbursement processes as these structural procedural volumes continue to increase.
