Telix Welcomes CMS Decision to Improve Payments for Diagnostic Radiopharmaceuticals
Telix today welcomes the announcement by the United States (U.S.) Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) that it will pay separately for specialised diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals for Medicare Fee for Service patients in the hospital outpatient setting, beyond the transitional pass-through payment period (“pass-through”). This is a significant decision for patients and hospitals, with the change facilitating equitable access to advanced imaging agents for all patients into the future.
