Medicare Program; Revisions to Payment Policies and Five-Year 
Review of and Adjustments to the Relative Value Units Under the 
Physician Fee Schedule for Calendar Year 2002

AGENCY: Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), HHS.

ACTION: Final rule with comment period.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This final rule with comment period makes several changes 
affecting Medicare Part B payment. The changes affect: refinement of 
resource-based practice expense relative value units (RVUs); services 
and supplies incident to a physician's professional service; anesthesia 
base unit variations; recognition of CPT tracking codes; and nurse 
practitioners, physician assistants, and clinical nurse specialists 
performing screening sigmoidoscopies. It also addresses comments 
received on the June 8, 2001 proposed notice for the 5-year review of 
work RVUs and finalizes these work RVUs. In addition, we acknowledge 
comments received on our request for information on our policy for CPT 
modifier 62 that is used to report the work of co-surgeons. The rule 
also updates the list of certain services subject to the physician 
self-referral prohibitions to reflect changes to CPT codes and 
Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System codes effective January 1, 
2002. These refinements and changes will ensure that our payment 
systems are updated to reflect changes in medical practice and the 
relative value of services.
    The Medicare, Medicaid, and SCHIP Benefits Improvement and 
Protection Act of 2000 modernizes the mammography screening benefit and 
authorizes payment under the physician fee schedule effective January 
1, 2002; provides for biennial screening pelvic examinations for 
certain beneficiaries effective July 1, 2001; provides for annual 
glaucoma screenings for high-risk beneficiaries effective January 1, 
2002; expands coverage for screening colonoscopies to all beneficiaries 
effective July 1, 2001; establishes coverage for medical nutrition 
therapy services for certain beneficiaries effective January 1, 2002; 
expands payment for telehealth services effective October 1, 2001; 
requires certain Indian Health Service providers to be paid for some 
services under the physician fee schedule effective July 1, 2001; and 
revises the payment for certain physician pathology services effective 
January 1, 2001. This final rule will conform our regulations to 
reflect these statutory provisions.
    In addition, we are finalizing the calendar year (CY) 2001 interim 
RVUs and are issuing interim RVUs for new and revised procedure codes 
for calendar year (CY) 2002. As required by the statute, we are 
announcing that the physician fee schedule update for CY 2002 is -4.8 
percent, the initial estimate of the Sustainable Growth Rate (SGR) for 
CY 2002 is 5.6 percent, and the conversion factor for CY 2002 is 
$36.1992.

DATES: Effective date: This rule is effective January 1, 2002.
    Comment date: We will consider comments on the Clinical Practice 
Expert Panel data, the physician self-referral designated health 
services identified in Table 8, and the interim RVUs for selected 
procedure codes identified in Addendum C if we receive them at the 
appropriate address, as provided below, no later than 5 p.m. on 
December 31, 2001.

I. Background

A. Legislative History

    Since January 1, 1992, Medicare has paid for physicians' services 
under section 1848 of the Social Security Act (the Act), ``Payment for 
Physicians' Services.'' This section provides for three major elements: 
(1) a fee schedule for the payment of physicians' services; (2) a 
sustainable growth rate for the rates of increase in Medicare 
expenditures for physicians' services; and (3) limits on the amounts 
that nonparticipating physicians can charge beneficiaries. The Act 
requires that payments under the fee schedule be based on national 
uniform relative value units (RVUs) based on the resources used in 
furnishing a service. Section 1848(c) of the Act requires that national 
RVUs be established for physician work, practice expense, and 
malpractice expense.

[[Page 55248]]

Section 1848(c)(2)(B)(ii)(II) of the Act provides that adjustments in 
RVUs may not cause total physician fee schedule payments to differ by 
more than $20 million from what they would have been had the 
adjustments not been made. If adjustments to RVUs cause expenditures to 
change by more than $20 million, we must make adjustments to preserve 
budget neutrality.

B. Published Changes to the Fee Schedule

    In the July 17, 2000 proposed rule (65 FR 44177), we listed all of 
the final rules published through November 1999 relating to the updates 
to the RVUs and revisions to payment policies under the physician fee 
schedule.
    In the June 8, 2001 Federal Register (66 FR 31028), we published a 
proposed notice concerning the 5-year review of work RVUs.
    In the August 2, 2001 proposed rule (66 FR 40373) we discussed 
revisions contained in the November 1, 2000 final rule with comment 
period and the following issues affecting Medicare payment under the 
physician fee schedule:
     We listed the revisions to payment policies under the 
physician fee schedule that were made in the November 2000 final rule 
with comment period (65 FR 65376).
     We discussed policy issues affecting Medicare payment for 
physicians' services, including--

--refinement of the resource-based practice expense relative value 
units;
--services and supplies incident to a physician's professional service;
--anesthesia base unit variations;
--recognition of CPT tracking codes; and
--nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and clinical nurse 
specialists performing screening sigmoidoscopies.

We also solicited comments on the payment policy for CPT modifier 62 
used to report the work of co-surgeons.
    In addition, the August 2, 2001 proposed rule addressed the 
following provisions of the Medicare, Medicaid, and SCHIP Benefits 
Improvement and Protection Act of 2000 (BIPA):
     Payment for the screening mammography benefit under the 
physician fee schedule effective January 1, 2002.
     Biennial screening pelvic examinations for certain 
beneficiaries effective July 1, 2001.
     Annual glaucoma screenings for high-risk beneficiaries 
effective January 1, 2002.
     Expansion of coverage for screening colonoscopies to all 
beneficiaries effective July 1, 2001.
     Coverage for medical nutrition therapy services for 
certain beneficiaries effective January 1, 2002.
     Expansion of payment for telehealth services effective 
October 1, 2001.
     Payment for some services of certain Indian Health Service 
providers under the physician fee schedule effective July 1, 2001.
     Revision to the payment for certain physician pathology 
services effective January 1, 2001.
    This final rule affects the regulations set forth at Part 405, 
Federal health insurance for the aged and disabled; Part 410, 
Supplementary medical insurance (SMI) benefits; Part 411, Exclusions 
from Medicare and limitations on Medicare payment; Part 414, Payment 
for Part B medical and other health services; and Part 415, Services 
furnished by physicians in providers, supervising physicians in 
teaching settings, and residents in certain settings.
    The information in this final rule finalizes information in the 
June 8, 2001 proposed notice and the August 2, 2001 proposed rule.

C. Components of the Fee Schedule Payment Amounts

    Under the formula set forth in section 1848(b)(1) of the Act, the 
payment amount for each service paid under the physician fee schedule 
is the product of three factors--(1) a nationally uniform relative 
value for the service; (2) a geographic adjustment factor (GAF) for 
each physician fee schedule area; and (3) a nationally uniform 
conversion factor (CF) for the service. The CF converts the relative 
values into payment amounts.
    For each physician fee schedule service, there are three relative 
values--(1) an RVU for physician work; (2) an RVU for practice expense; 
and (3) an RVU for malpractice expense. For each of these components of 
the fee schedule, there is a geographic practice cost index (GPCI) for 
each fee schedule area. The GPCIs reflect the relative costs of 
practice expenses, malpractice insurance, and physician work in an area 
compared to the national average for each component.
    The general formula for calculating the Medicare fee schedule 
amount for a given service in a given fee schedule area can be 
expressed as:

Payment = [(RVU work  x  GPCI work) + (RVU practice expense  x  GPCI 
practice expense) + (RVU malpractice  x  GPCI malpractice)]  x  CF

    The CF for calendar year (CY) 2002 appears in section XIII. The 
RVUs for CY 2002 are in Addendum B. The GPCIs for CY 2002 can be found 
in Addendum D.
    Section 1848(e) of the Act requires us to develop GAFs for all 
physician fee schedule areas. The total GAF for a fee schedule area is 
equal to a weighted average of the individual GPCIs for each of the 
three components of the service. In accordance with the statute, 
however, the GAF for the physician's work reflects one-quarter of the 
relative cost of physician's work compared to the national average.

D. Development of the Relative Value System

1. Work Relative Value Units
    Approximately 7,500 codes represent services included in the 
physician fee schedule. The work RVUs established for the 
implementation of the fee schedule in January 1992 were developed with 
extensive input from the physician community. A research team at the 
Harvard School of Public Health developed the original work RVUs for 
most codes in a cooperative agreement with us. In constructing the 
vignettes for the original RVUs, Harvard worked with expert panels of 
physicians and obtained input from physicians from numerous 
specialties.
    The RVUs for radiology services were based on the American College 
of Radiology (ACR) relative value scale, which we integrated into the 
overall physician fee schedule. The RVUs for anesthesia services were 
based on RVUs from a uniform relative value guide. We established a 
separate CF for anesthesia services, and we continue to recognize time 
as a factor in determining payment for these services. As a result, 
there is a separate payment system for anesthesia services.

II. Specific Proposals for Calendar Year 2002

    In response to the publication of the August 2001 proposed rule, we 
received approximately 2,000 comments. We received comments from 
individual physicians, health care workers, and professional 
associations and societies. The majority of comments addressed the 
proposals related to medical nutrition therapy and the practice expense 
refinement.
    The proposed rule discussed policies that affected the number of 
RVUs on which payment for certain services would be based. Certain 
changes implemented through this final rule are subject to the $20 
million limitation on

[[Page 55249]]

annual adjustments contained in section 1848(c)(2)(B)(ii)(II) of the 
Act.
    After reviewing the comments and determining the policies we would 
implement, we have estimated the costs and savings of these policies 
and added those costs and savings to the estimated costs associated 
with any other changes in RVUs for 2002. We discuss in detail the 
effects of these changes in the Regulatory Impact Analysis in section 
XIII.
    For the convenience of the reader, the headings for the policy 
issues correspond to the headings used in the August 2001 proposed 
rule. More detailed background information for each issue can be found 
in the June 2001 proposed notice with comment period and the August 
2001 proposed rule.

A. Resource-Based Practice Expense Relative Value Units

1. Resource-Based Practice Expense Legislation
    Section 121 of the Social Security Act Amendments of 1994 (Public 
Law 103-432), enacted on October 31, 1994, required us to develop a 
methodology for a resource-based system for determining practice 
expense RVUs for each physician's service beginning in 1998. In 
developing the methodology, we were to consider the staff, equipment, 
and supplies used in providing medical and surgical services in various 
settings. The legislation specifically required that, in implementing 
the new system of practice expense RVUs, we apply the same budget-
neutrality provisions that we apply to other adjustments under the 
physician fee schedule.
    Section 4505(a) of the BBA amended section 1848(c)(2)(ii) of the 
Act and delayed the effective date of the resource-based practice 
expense RVU system until January 1, 1999. In addition, section 4505(b) 
of the BBA provided for a 4-year transition period from charge-based 
practice expense RVUs to resource-based RVUs. The practice expense RVUs 
for CY 1999 were the product of 75 percent of charge-based RVUs and 25 
percent of the resource-based RVUs. For CY 2000, the RVUs were 50 
percent charge-based RVUs and 50 percent resource-based RVUs. For CY 
2001, the RVUs are 25 percent charge-based and 75 percent resource-
based. After CY 2001, the RVUs will be totally resource-based.
    Section 4505(e) of the BBA amended section 1848(c)(2) of the Act by 
providing that 1998 practice expense RVUs be adjusted for certain 
services in anticipation of implementation of resource-based practice 
expenses beginning in 1999. As a result, the statute required us to 
increase practice expense RVUs for office visits. For other services in 
which practice expense RVUs exceeded 110 percent of the work RVUs and 
were furnished less than 75 percent of the time in an office setting, 
the statute required us to reduce the 1998 practice expense RVUs to a 
number equal to 110 percent of the work RVUs. This reduction did not 
apply to services that had proposed resource-based practice expense 
RVUs that increased from their 1997 practice expense RVUs as reflected 
in the June 18, 1997 proposed rule (62 FR 33196). The services affected 
and the final RVUs for 1998 were published in the October 1997 final 
rule (62 FR 59103).
    Further legislation affecting resource-based practice expense RVUs 
was included in the Balanced Budget Refinement Act of 1999 (BBRA) 
(Public Law 106-113). Section 212 of the BBRA amended section 
1848(c)(2)(ii) of the Act by directing us to establish a process under 
which we accept and use, to the maximum extent practicable and 
consistent with sound data practices, data collected or developed by 
entities and organizations. These data would supplement the data we 
normally collect in determining the practice expense component of the 
physician fee schedule for payments in CY 2001 and CY 2002.
2. Current Methodology for Computing the Practice Expense Relative 
Value Unit System
    Effective with services furnished on or after January 1, 1999, we 
established a new methodology for computing resource-based practice 
expense RVUs that used the two significant sources of actual practice 
expense data we have available--the Clinical Practice Expert Panel 
(CPEP) data and the American Medical Association's (AMA) Socioeconomic 
Monitoring System (SMS) data. The methodology was based on an 
assumption that current aggregate specialty practice costs are a 
reasonable way to establish initial estimates of relative resource 
costs for physicians' services across specialties. The methodology 
allocated these aggregate specialty practice costs to specific 
procedures and, thus, can be seen as a ``top-down'' approach. 
Discussion of the various elements of the methodology and their 
application follows.

a. Practice Expense Cost Pools

    We used actual practice expense data by specialty, derived from the 
1995 through 1998 SMS survey data, to create six cost pools--
administrative labor, clinical labor, medical supplies, medical 
equipment, office supplies, and all other expenses. There were three 
steps in the creation of the cost pools. (Please note that the 1999 SMS 
data are being incorporated for CY 2002.)
     Step (1) We used the AMA's SMS survey of actual cost data 
to determine practice expenses per hour by cost category. The practice 
expenses per hour for each physician respondent's practice were 
calculated as the practice expenses for the practice divided by the 
total number of hours spent in patient care activities. The practice 
expenses per hour for the specialty were an average of the practice 
expenses per hour for the respondent physicians in that specialty. For 
the CY 2000 physician fee schedule, we also used data from a survey 
submitted by the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) in calculating 
thoracic and cardiac surgeons' practice expenses per hour. (Please see 
the November 1999 final rule (64 FR 59391) for additional information 
concerning acceptance of these data.) For CY 2001, we used these STS 
data, as well as survey data submitted by the American Society of 
Vascular Surgery and the Society of Vascular Surgery. (Please see the 
November 2000 final rule (65 FR 65385) for additional information on 
the acceptance of these data.)
     Step (2) We determined the total number of physician hours 
(by specialty) spent treating Medicare patients. This was calculated 
from physician time data for each procedure code and from Medicare 
claims data.
     Step (3) We calculated the practice expense pools by 
specialty and by cost category by multiplying the specialty practice 
expenses per hour for each category by the total physician hours.
    For services with work RVUs equal to zero (including the technical 
component (TC) of services with a TC and a professional component 
(PC)), we created a separate practice expense pool using the average 
clinical staff time from the Clinical Practice Expert Panel (CPEP) data 
(since these codes, by definition, do not have physician time) and the 
``all physicians'' practice expense per hour.

b. Cost Allocation Methodology

    For each specialty, we divided the six practice expense pools into 
two groups, based on whether direct or indirect costs were involved, 
and we used a different allocation basis for each group. The first 
group included clinical labor, medical supplies, and medical equipment. 
The second group included administrative labor, office expenses, and 
all other expenses.

[[Page 55250]]

(i) Direct Costs
    For direct costs (including clinical labor, medical supplies, and 
medical equipment), we used the CPEP data as the allocation basis. The 
CPEP data for clinical labor, medical supplies, and medical equipment 
were used to allocate the costs for each of the respective cost pools.
    For the separate practice expense pool for services with work RVUs 
equal to zero, we used adjusted 1998 practice expense RVUs as an 
interim measure to allocate the direct cost pools. (Please see the 
November 1998 final rule (63 FR 58891) for further information related 
to this adjustment.) Also, for all radiology services that are assigned 
work RVUs, we used the adjusted 1998 practice expense RVUs for 
radiology services as an interim measure to allocate the direct 
practice expense cost pool for radiology. For all other specialties 
that perform radiology services, we used the CPEP data for radiology 
services in the allocation of that specialty's direct practice expense 
cost pools.
(ii) Indirect Costs
    To allocate the cost pools for indirect costs, including 
administrative labor, office expenses, and all other expenses, we used 
the total direct costs, as described above, in combination with the 
physician fee schedule work RVUs. We converted the work RVUs to dollars 
using the Medicare CF (expressed in 1995 dollars for consistency with 
the SMS survey years).
    The SMS pool was divided by the CPEP pool for each specialty to 
produce a scaling factor that was applied to the CPEP direct cost 
inputs. This was intended to match costs counted as practice expenses 
in the SMS survey with items counted as practice expenses in the CPEP 
process. When the specialty-specific scaling factor exceeded the 
average scaling factor by more than 3 standard deviations, we used the 
average scaling factor. (Please see the November 1999 final rule (64 FR 
59390) for further discussion of this issue.)
    For procedures performed by more than one specialty, the final 
procedure code allocation was a weighted average of allocations for the 
specialties that perform the procedure, with the weights being the 
frequency with which each specialty performs the procedure on Medicare 
patients.

c. Other Methodological Issues

(i) Global Practice Expense Relative Value Units
    For services with the PC and TC paid under the physician fee 
schedule, the global practice expense RVUs were set equal to the sum of 
the PC and TC.
(ii) Practice Expenses per Hour Adjustments and Specialty Crosswalks
    Since many specialties identified in our claims data did not 
correspond exactly to the specialties included in the practice expense 
tables from the SMS survey data, it was necessary to crosswalk these 
specialties to the most appropriate SMS specialty category. We also 
made the following adjustments to the practice expense per hour data. 
(For the rationale for these adjustments to the practice expense per 
hour, see the November 1998 final rule (63 FR 58841)).
     We set the medical materials and supplies practice 
expenses per hour for the specialty of ``oncology'' equal to the ``all 
physician'' medical materials and supplies practice expenses per hour.
     We based the administrative payroll, office, and other 
practice expenses per hour for the specialties of ``physical therapy'' 
and ``occupational therapy'' on data used to develop the salary 
equivalency guidelines for these specialties. We set the remaining 
practice expense per hour categories equal to the ``all physician'' 
practice expenses per hour from the SMS survey data. (Note that in the 
November 2000 final rule (65 FR 65403), we increased the space 
allotment for therapy services to 750 square feet.)
     Due to uncertainty concerning the appropriate crosswalk 
and time data for the nonphysician specialty ``audiologist,'' we 
derived the resource-based practice expense RVUs for codes performed by 
audiologists from the practice expenses per hour of the other 
specialties that perform these services.
     For the specialty of ``emergency medicine,'' we used the 
``all physician'' practice expense per hour to create practice expense 
cost pools for the categories ``clerical payroll'' and ``other 
expenses.''
     For the specialty of ``podiatry,'' we used the ``all 
physician'' practice expense per hour to create the practice expense 
pool.
     For the specialty of ``pathology,'' we removed the 
supervision and autopsy hours reimbursed through Part A of the Medicare 
program from the practice expense per hour calculation.
     For the specialty ``maxillofacial prosthetics,'' we used 
the ``all physician'' practice expense per hour to create practice 
expense cost pools and, as an interim measure, allocated these pools 
using the adjusted 1998 practice expense RVUs.
     We split the practice expenses per hour for the specialty 
``radiology'' into ``radiation oncology'' and ``radiology other than 
radiation oncology'' and used this split practice expense per hour to 
create practice expense cost pools for these specialties.
(iii) Time Associated With the Work RVUs
    The time data resulting from the refinement of the work RVUs have 
been, on average, 25 percent greater than the time data obtained by the 
Harvard study for the same services. We adjusted the Harvard study's 
time data to ensure consistency between these data sources.
    For services with no assigned physician time, such as dialysis, 
physical therapy, psychology, and many radiology and other diagnostic 
services, we calculated estimated total physician time based on work 
RVUs, maximum clinical staff time for each service as shown in the CPEP 
data, or the judgment of our clinical staff.
    We calculated the time for CPT codes (hereafter referred to as 
``codes'') 00100 through 01996 using the base and time units from the 
anesthesia fee schedule and the Medicare allowed claims data.
3. Refinement

a. Background

    Section 4505(d)(1)(C) of the BBA directed us to develop a 
refinement process to be used during each of the 4 years of the 
transition period. We did not propose a specific long-term refinement 
process in the June 1998 proposed rule (63 FR 30835). Rather, we set 
out the parameters for an acceptable refinement process for practice 
expense RVUs and solicited comments on our proposal. We received a 
variety of comments about broad methodology issues, practice expense 
per-hour data, and detailed code-level data. We made adjustments to our 
proposal based on the comments we received. We also indicated that we 
would consider other comments for possible refinement and that the RVUs 
for all codes would be considered interim for 1999 and for future years 
during the transition period.
    We outlined in the November 1998 final rule (63 FR 58832) the steps 
we were undertaking as part of the initial refinement process. These 
steps included the following:
     Establishment of a mechanism to receive independent advice 
for dealing with broad practice expense RVU technical and 
methodological issues.
     Evaluation of any additional recommendations from the 
General Accounting Office, the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission 
(MedPAC), and the Practicing Physicians Advisory Council (PPAC).

[[Page 55251]]

     Consultation with physician and other groups about these 
issues.
    We also discussed a proposal submitted by the AMA's Specialty 
Society Relative Value Update Committee (RUC) for development of a new 
advisory committee, the Practice Expense Advisory Committee (PEAC), to 
review comments and recommendations on the code-specific CPEP data 
during the refinement period. In addition, we solicited comments and 
suggestions about our practice expense methodology from organizations 
that have a broad range of interests and expertise in practice expense 
and survey issues.

b. Current Status of Refinement Activities

    In the 1999 and 2000 final rules and the 2001 proposed rule, we 
provided further information on refinement activities underway, 
including the AMA's formation of the PEAC and the support contract that 
we awarded to the Lewin Group to focus on methodologic issues. In 
addition, in these rules, we announced actions taken and decisions made 
in response to the hundreds of comments received on our resource-based 
physician practice expense initiative. Because the transition will be 
completed in CY 2002 and the practice expense RVUs will then be totally 
resource-based, it is appropriate to recap the specific achievements 
reached and decisions implemented during this refinement effort to 
date.
(i) Use of the Top-Down Approach
    Most of the physician organizations commenting agreed that this 
methodology was preferred for computing resource-based practice expense 
RVUs and that it was in accordance with the requirements of the BBA. 
KPMG Peat Marwick, under contract to us, reviewed the top-down 
methodology in which aggregate specialty costs are applied to specific 
procedures and concluded that it followed reasonable cost accounting 
principles. A 1999 GAO report concludes, ``HCFA's new approach 
represents a reasonable starting point for creating resource-based 
practice expense RVUs. It uses the best available data for this purpose 
and explicitly recognizes specialty differences in practice expense.'' 
Based on these comments and assessments, we made the decision to 
continue to use the top-down methodology to calculate the resource-
based practice expense RVUs.
(ii) Use of the SMS Survey
    The supplemental non-SMS survey data submitted by several 
specialties in response to the 1998 proposed rule, with the exception 
of the survey data from the thoracic surgeons, were not compatible with 
the format or methodology of the SMS. We awarded a contract to the 
Lewin Group to recommend criteria for the acceptance of specialty-
specific practice expense data so that we could supplement the SMS data 
as appropriate. These recommended criteria are contained in the final 
report, ``An Evaluation of the Health Care Financing Administration's 
Resource-Based Practice Expense Methodology.'' This report is available 
on our web page under the same title. (Access to our web site is 
discussed in the Supplementary Information section above.)
    The report also contains recommendations for revisions to the SMS 
or other surveys to efficiently meet the needs of our practice expense 
methodology. We augmented these recommendations and forwarded our 
suggestions for revisions to any future surveys to the AMA. For 
example, we developed supplementary survey questions that would allow 
us to distinguish both costs and direct patient care hours for all 
midlevel practitioners. We also suggested revisions that would capture 
the necessary information on separately billable supplies and services 
so that we could eliminate these costs from the specialty-specific 
practice expense per-hour calculations.
    To obtain supplementary specialty-specific practice expense data 
that could be used in computing practice expense RVUs beginning January 
1, 2001, we published an interim final rule on May 3, 2000 (65 FR 
25664) that set forth the criteria applicable to supplemental survey 
data submitted to us by August 1, 2000.
    We also provided a 60-day period for submission of public comments 
on our criteria for survey data submitted between August 2, 2000 and 
August 1, 2001 for use in computing the practice expense RVUs for the 
CY 2002 physician fee schedule.
    In the November 1, 2000 final rule (65 FR 65385), we responded to 
comments received on the interim final rule and made modifications to 
the criteria for supplemental survey data that will be considered in 
computing practice expense RVUs for the CY 2002 physician fee schedule. 
These data can then be used to supplement the SMS survey data currently 
used to estimate each specialty's aggregate practice costs or to 
replace the crosswalks used for specialties not represented in the SMS.
    In our November 1999 final rule, we accepted supplementary data 
submitted by the thoracic surgeons and, in our November 2000 final 
rule, we accepted survey data from the vascular surgeons that replaced 
the previously crosswalked practice expense per hour data for that 
specialty. In the November 2000 final rule, we also stated that if we 
received additional specialty-specific survey data before August 1, 
2001 that met the criteria outlined in that rule, we would use these 
supplementary data in calculating the CY 2002 practice expense RVUs.
    We accepted our contractor's recommendation to incorporate the 
latest SMS data into our practice expense per hour calculations. For CY 
2001, we incorporated the 1998 SMS data into a 4-year average, and we 
are incorporating the 1999 SMS data into a 5-year average to calculate 
the CY 2002 practice expense RVUs.
    We also accepted the contractor's recommendation to standardize the 
survey practice expense data to a common year. We adjusted the data to 
reflect a 1995 cost year.
    We received comments that urged us to use the median SMS specialty-
specific data instead of the mean, as well as comments supporting our 
use of the mean values. We made a decision to continue to use the mean 
in calculating the specialty-specific practice expense per hour. We 
believe that, in a small sample, using the median could eliminate 
outlying data from the calculation that represent real costs and thus 
should be considered.
(iii) CPEP Data
    The AMA has formed a multispecialty sub-committee of their Relative 
Value Update Committee (RUC), the Practice Expense Advisory Committee 
(PEAC), to review the CPEP clinical staff, equipment, and supply data 
for all physicians' services. This multispecialty committee, which 
includes representatives from all major specialty societies, will then 
make recommendations on suggested refinements to these data. We 
indicated in our November 1998 final rule (63 FR 58833) that we would 
work with the PEAC and RUC to refine the practice expense direct cost 
inputs. This refinement process was supported in comments we received 
from almost every major physician specialty society.
    In our November 1999 physician fee schedule final rule, we 
implemented most clinical staff time, supply and equipment refinements 
recommended by the RUC. For the November 2000 final rule, the RUC 
forwarded to us significant additional refinement recommendations that 
reflected multispecialty agreement on the typical resources for many 
important services, including visit codes, which account for

[[Page 55252]]

approximately 24 percent of Medicare spending for physicians' services. 
Again we accepted almost all of these RUC recommendations. In addition, 
at its October 2000, February 2001, and April 2001 meetings, the PEAC 
focused on refining high-volume services and on standardizing inputs 
across wide ranges of services. The RUC and PEAC forwarded to us 
recommendation on refinements for over 1,100 services. We anticipate 
that the pace of refinement of the CPEP inputs will continue to 
accelerate.
    In addition to implementing most of the RUC-recommended 
refinements, we responded to comments on errors and anomalies in the 
CPEP data in both the November 1999 and November 2000 final rules. For 
example, we removed separately billable casting supplies and drugs from 
all services; we adjusted the prices of certain supplies that were 
clearly in error; we removed duplicated equipment from the direct 
inputs of the nuclear medicine codes; we added clearly essential 
equipment that was missing from the lithotripsy and photochemotherapy 
codes; we corrected anomalies in inputs within several families of 
codes; and we changed the crosswalks for the CPEP inputs of several 
codes not valued by the CPEP panels when a commenter suggested more 
appropriate crosswalks.
    We simplified the refinement of equipment inputs by combining both 
the procedure-specific and overhead equipment into a single equipment 
category. We also deleted stand-by equipment and equipment used for 
multiple services at one time from the direct cost inputs because of 
the difficulty of allocating these costs at the code-specific level.
    We are resolving issues related to averaging input costs for codes 
that were valued by more than one CPEP panel. While we have received 
comments agreeing and disagreeing with our use of mean costs, the issue 
is moot because we are substituting refined data for the data 
previously produced by multiple CPEPs.
(iv) Physician Time Data
    In the November 1999 rule (64 FR 59404), we stated that, in 
general, requests for revisions for the procedure-specific physician 
times should be deferred to either the RUC process or the 5-year review 
process. However, we did adopt the newer data to correct the physician 
time for the pediatric surgery codes and made the requested revisions 
to correct anomalies in the times of certain psychotherapy codes.
    In response to comments on the times associated with physical and 
occupational therapy services, we added preservice and postservice 
times to all of these codes.
(v) Crosswalk Issues
    In response to concerns expressed by specialty societies 
representing emergency medicine that the SMS data did not capture the 
costs of uncompensated care, we crosswalked emergency medicine's cost 
pools for administrative labor and other expenses to the practice 
expense per hour for ``all physicians.''
    We resolved issues related to the specialty crosswalk for nursing 
specialties by eliminating the separate practice expense pools for 
midlevel practitioners.
(vi) Calculation of Practice Expense Pools--Other Issues
    We addressed concerns that potential errors in our specialty 
utilization data will have an effect on the calculation of practice 
expense RVUs. In the July 2000 proposed rule (65 FR 44178), we 
discussed our simulations that demonstrated that the small percentage 
of potential errors in our very large database have no adverse effect 
on specialty-specific practice expense RVUs.
    We have created the zero-work pool for services with no physician 
work to ensure that these services are not inappropriately 
disadvantaged by our methodology. We have also agreed with the request 
of all the specialty societies that commented that their services 
should be moved out of the zero-work pool and into the specialty-
specific pool. The specialties whose services remain in the zero-work 
pool have indicated that they wish their services to remain there. We 
plan to eliminate this separate pool for services with no physician 
work only when we have determined what revisions to our methodology are 
required so that we can value these services appropriately outside of 
the zero-work pool.
(vii) Calculation of Indirect Cost
    We requested that our contractor evaluate various options for 
calculating indirect costs. The final report, referenced above, 
contains an analysis of the impacts of six alternative allocation 
methodologies. In confirming the suitability of our allocation 
methodology, the report concludes that ``HCFA's approach is broadly 
consistent with most of the alternative methods. This consistency 
suggests that, from a broad perspective, no other allocation 
methodology offers a compelling reason to abandon the current HCFA 
approach.''
(viii) Site-of-Service
    The practice expense RVUs would be expected to be higher in the 
nonfacility setting, where the practitioner bears the costs of the 
necessary staff, supplies, and equipment, than in the facility setting. 
To prevent potential anomalies in our calculations due to the different 
mix of specialties performing a given service in different settings, we 
capped the practice expense RVUs for a physician service in facilities 
at the nonfacility practice expense level for each specific service.
    In the November 1999 final rule (64 FR 59407), in response to a 
comment from the Renal Physicians Association, we agreed that the 
monthly capitated service codes should always be reported using the 
nonfacility designation. The site-of-service designations are not 
meaningful for a monthly service that may be provided in different 
settings for the same patient during a given month.
    Although we are continuing our refinement of all practice expense 
RVUs, we believe that the above description of our actions to date 
illustrates that much has been accomplished. We also believe that it 
demonstrates that we have been responsive to comments from the medical 
community and have established a process that enables this community to 
participate fully in the refinement of both the specialty-specific 
practice expense per hour and the CPEP code-specific inputs.
4. Practice Expense Provisions for Calendar Year 2002

a. SMS Data

(i) Use of 1999 SMS Survey Data
    We are currently using data from the 1995 through the 1998 SMS 
surveys (1994 through 1997 practice expense data) in order to calculate 
the specialty-specific practice expense per hour. The 1999 SMS survey 
data are now available. Because we want to incorporate the most recent 
survey data into our methodology during the transition period, we 
proposed in our August 2001 rule (66 FR 40377) to add this 1999 data to 
the 4 years of data we are currently using.
    We proposed to use these 5 years of data in addition to any 
supplemental specialty-specific data that meet our criteria as the 
basis of the practice expense per hour calculations until the first 5-
year review of practice expense RVUs in 2007. At that time, we 
anticipate that newer practice expense survey data might be available.
    Comment: Specialty societies representing internal medicine, family

[[Page 55253]]

practice and a number of their subspecialties were opposed to using the 
1999 SMS data in the calculation of the practice expense RVUs. While 
many of these commenters were generally supportive of incorporating the 
most current SMS data, they are concerned that the sample size and 
results from the 1999 SMS data may not warrant their inclusion. Several 
of these commenters indicated that the American Medical Association is 
on record stating that ``it normally would not provide or publish data 
with so few responses for some specialties.''
    A number of these commenters suggested that the practice expense 
information from the 1999 SMS would be less reliable because the data 
were collected after CMS announced the new resource-based practice 
expense methodology in the Federal Register. These commenters suggested 
that the opportunity for ``gaming'' now exists because the public was 
aware that the SMS data were used to calculate Medicare payments.
    One commenter noted that the practice expense per hour for 
cardiology dropped by 15 percent in one year and doubted that the 
actual change in practice expense of this magnitude could have 
occurred. Another commenter indicated that the cardiac subspecialty of 
electrophysiology is very likely not represented at all in this flawed 
data set.
    One association that represents eye surgeons commented that the 
1999 SMS survey included about half as many usable responses as the 
1995 through 1997 surveys. This commenter questioned our decision to 
disregard responses received by mail and indicated that an already poor 
response rate to the survey has become even lower. Another commenter 
that represents ophthalmology indicated that use of 1999 data with such 
low response rates violates good statistical practice. The 1999 
responses included only 23 ophthalmologists, while over 200 offered 
responses to the survey in years before 1999. Another commenter that 
represents gastroenterology indicated that the SMS is perhaps the best 
available source of data on multispecialty practice costs. However, 
this comment indicated that it is by no means a perfect data source for 
the manner in which it has been used by CMS and is even less reliable 
for certain specialties, such as gastroenterology. This commenter 
appreciates our willingness to accept supplementary data from 
specialties, but believes that it is our responsibility to overcome 
data deficiencies. We were encouraged to develop a uniform and fair 
process to overcome data deficiencies, without relying on individual 
medical specialties to provide such data.
    In light of AMA's suspension of the SMS survey, this commenter 
urged us to discuss in the final rule our plans for updating practice 
expense RVUs in future years beginning with 2003, and, if need be, for 
replacing the SMS survey with an alternative data source. Another 
commenter expressed concern that the newer data from the SMS surveys 
will not be incorporated until the first 5-year review of practice 
expense RVUs in 2007; by that time, some of the practice expense data 
will have been in existence for 13 years.
    Similarly, another commenter expressed concern that using the SMS 
data set from 1995 through 1999 until 2007 will mean that the data will 
not accurately reflect the changes in technology that will increase 
costs, particularly for specialties with rapid changes in technology.
    Response: In response to the comment that the SMS data are not a 
perfect data source for developing practice expense RVUs, as we have 
said previously, we believe the SMS survey is the best available source 
of data on multispecialty practice costs. This comment was echoed by 
one of the same commenters that objected to including the 1999 SMS data 
in the practice expense methodology for determining 2002 RVUs. While we 
have previously acknowledged that the data have potential limitations 
for determining practice expense RVUs, there are no alternative data 
sources that are better for this purpose.
    Since there are no other data on aggregate multispecialty practice 
costs that are better than the SMS, our only alternative would be to 
eliminate the SMS data from the methodology and rely solely on 
estimates of practice expense inputs for individual codes. We believe a 
better approach would be to continue using the SMS data in the practice 
expense methodology and to work with the physician community to develop 
even better data for establishing practice expense RVUs in the future.
    One commenter noted that we only included telephone survey 
responses and not mail responses from the 1999 SMS and suggested that 
this decision further reduces an already low response rate. Our 
understanding is that the AMA, as a result of concerns about a 
declining number of responses to the SMS survey, used several 
approaches to obtain more surveys in the 1999 SMS. As part of this 
effort, some survey respondents received a mail survey instead of the 
normal telephone survey. Our review of information from the AMA 
suggested that there were significant differences between the mail and 
telephone surveys on questions related to practice expense. Since our 
objective has been to use a consistent approach to obtaining practice 
expense data for use in our methodology, we felt that it would be 
better to incorporate only the traditional telephone survey responses 
in the methodology consistent with how the data were obtained in 
earlier years.
    While a few commenters indicated that the SMS data are not 
representative of a particular specialty's costs, they provided no 
information to support the contention. One commenter suggested that 
electrophysiology, a subspecialty of cardiology, was unlikely to be 
included in the SMS survey. Since the SMS survey draws a random sample 
from the AMA's Physician Masterfile, we believe all physicians are 
equally likely to be selected for participation in the survey. We would 
further note that the SMS weights response information based on known 
characteristics of the population to make the final figures as 
representative of the self-employed population as possible. As we have 
stated previously, we believe the SMS survey is the best source of data 
for specialty practice expenses. If a specialty believes that the SMS 
is unrepresentative of their actual practice expenses, we have 
established a process by which additional data can be submitted to us. 
To date, we have used two specialty practice expense surveys in 
addition to or in place of the SMS survey. We encourage specialties to 
use this process to provide us with additional practice expense data 
that improve the representativeness of the data that we are using to 
determine the practice expense RVUs.
    One commenter doubted that cardiology practice expense could have 
declined as much as suggested by the 1999 SMS data. We would note that 
the practice expense per hour in any given year can show more 
variability than the change in practice expense per hour over time. 
While the specialty of cardiology shows some level of variability in 
practice expense per hour, with some years showing a higher value than 
the average and other years a lower value, the change in practice 
expense per hour including the 1999 SMS data is far more modest than 
that suggested by the commenter. There is a -2.0 percent change in 
practice expense per hour as a result of including the 1999 SMS data. 
As indicated below, use of the 1999 SMS data changed average specialty 
level payments to cardiologists by less than 0.5 percent.

[[Page 55254]]

    We acknowledge that response rates and the number of usable 
responses from the 1999 SMS are lower than in prior years. 
Nevertheless, as we have stated previously, it is unclear to us why 
this alone indicates that we should reject incorporating the data. To 
the extent that there are few responses to the latest SMS survey, there 
will be less impact on a given specialty because the practice expense 
per hour calculation is weighted by the number of respondents from each 
respective year. Further, we believe inclusion of more survey data will 
improve the data's representativeness and lead to more stability in the 
practice expense per hour. The use of the 1999 SMS data appears to have 
little effect on the practice expense RVUs. In our August 2, 2001 
proposed rule (66 FR 40397), we simulated the impact of including the 
1999 SMS data on average specialty level payments. The increase or 
decrease in average specialty level payment was less than 0.5 percent 
for 29 of the 35 specialties listed, including nearly all of the 
specialties that expressed concern about including the latest SMS data. 
For 4 of the remaining 6 specialties, the increase or decrease in 
payments was between 0.5 and 1.0 percent. Payments for the remaining 
two specialties (pathology and suppliers) increased by more than 2 
percent.
    We are doubtful that respondents ``gamed'' responses in the 1999 
SMS because of an awareness that reporting higher practice expenses 
would lead to increased payments from Medicare. We observed no 
noticeable increase in practice expense per hour from the 1999 SMS 
survey than from earlier years. In fact, the inflation-adjusted all-
physician practice expense per hour from the 1999 SMS data is lower 
than the same figure from the 1998 SMS data. Further, if the concern is 
that physicians were aware of how the data would be used and would 
``game'' responses to obtain higher payments from Medicare, our 
expectation would be that the number of responses in the 1999 SMS would 
be higher, not lower, than in prior years. For these reasons, we are 
doubtful that there is any reason to assume that the 1999 SMS survey 
would show more bias than surveys from previous years.
    We welcome the comments that suggest that we develop a long-term 
strategy for using aggregate specialty practice expense data to make 
refinements to RVUs. As noted by some commenters, the AMA is no longer 
conducting the SMS survey in its current form. We would like to engage 
physician specialty societies, as well as other practitioner groups and 
representatives of organizations affected by Medicare physician fee 
schedule payments, in discussions of how to best obtain practice 
expense data that will be useful in updating our methodology for 
determining practice expense RVUs. Although it has been beneficial to 
use 5 years of SMS data to develop practice expense RVUs, we believe 
that it may not be necessary to make annual updates to aggregate 
specialty practice cost data if relative practice expenses do not 
change significantly from year to year. However, it may be beneficial 
to periodically review aggregate practice expenses and make changes 
when necessary. For instance, one commenter suggested that 
technological innovation may change relative expenses among services. 
For this reason, we believe a review of aggregate practice costs at 
least every 5 years is necessary. In fact, the statute requires that we 
review RVUs at least every 5 years. At this time, we have incorporated 
all of the data from the SMS surveys into the practice expense 
methodology. We will consider public input on the best way to obtain 
practice expense data for use in future practice expense calculations.
(ii) Supplemental Practice Expense Survey Data
    To ensure the maximum opportunity for specialties to submit 
supplementary practice expense data, we proposed to accept survey data 
that meet the criteria set forth in the November 2000 final rule for an 
additional 2 years. The deadlines for submission of such supplemental 
data to be considered in CY 2003 and CY 2004 are August 1, 2002 and 
August 1, 2003, respectively.
    Comment: Several commenters expressed their strong support for our 
decision to accept specialty-specific practice expense surveys for an 
additional 2 years. Specialty societies representing podiatry, 
pediatrics, internal medicine, rheumatology and surgery, as well as the 
American Medical Association (AMA) stated their agreement with this 
decision.
    An organization representing medical colleges commented that this 
will send an important message to the physician community about our 
willingness to consider all legitimate data sources in analyses of this 
critical portion of payments, and one that has been a subject of 
controversy within the community. A specialty society representing 
dermatology stated that the additional time will allow specialties to 
collect specialty-specific data that should be useful as we determine 
practice expense RVUs.
    The AMA and a commenter representing podiatry expressed some 
concern about the criteria for the acceptance of survey data and the 
AMA also expressed hope that we would be flexible concerning any data 
submitted. The commenter representing emergency medicine argued that 
collecting specialty-specific data would be fruitless, due to a number 
of stringent criteria for submitting supplemental practice expense 
survey data.
    On the other hand, three commenters indicated that we should accept 
only survey data that meet our criteria. The commenter representing 
rheumatology stated that it is critically important that any data 
accepted must meet the criteria in the November 2000 final rule.
    Response: We received only comments supporting this proposal, and 
we will be extending the period of acceptance of supplemental survey 
data for another 2 years, as proposed. We hope to demonstrate 
flexibility in helping those specialties that conduct a survey to do so 
successfully, and we understand that for some specialties some revision 
to the survey format may be necessary. For example, questions regarding 
uncompensated care for emergency physicians or separately billable 
drugs for oncologists might need to be added to a survey to determine 
the appropriate practice expense for these specialties. However, like 
several of the commenters, we believe that fairness to all can only be 
achieved if we consistently apply the rules for determining validity to 
any survey that is submitted.
    Comment: A specialty society representing geriatrics expressed 
concern regarding the use of SMS data in formulating practice expense 
costs because the sample size for geriatricians is not large enough to 
yield reliable data. The commenter stated that smaller specialty 
societies will be unable to provide supplementary survey data because 
of expense limitations and recommended that we continue to review 
alternative data sources that recognize the greater resources spent in 
caring for frail elderly persons. The society further recommended that 
we consider the use of ``non-compliant'' survey data for smaller 
specialty groups that do not meet our stringent and costly criteria.
    Response: We could not justify accepting ``non-compliant'' surveys 
from some specialties, due solely to the specialty's size, while 
holding others to a more rigorous standard. However, though we would 
welcome survey data from any specialty that submits a survey that meets 
our criteria, we do recognize that performing a survey can be costly. 
We, therefore, suggest that the specialty society consider in advance 
the extent to which any possible survey result

[[Page 55255]]

might actually alter the practice expense RVUs for their services. Note 
that we have only one payment amount for each service on the fee 
schedule. We have no authority to pay more to one specialty than to 
another for performing the same service. If a small specialty provides 
only a small percentage of a given service, a change in the practice 
expense per hour for that small specialty could have very little effect 
on the payment for the service. For example, if geriatricians perform 
mainly evaluation and management (E/M) services, even a survey that 
shows increased practice costs for geriatricians would not necessarily 
have any effect on the practice expense RVUs for E/M services because 
geriatricians' services would represent only a small part of the 
universe of E/M services. However, it is incumbent upon each specialty 
society to weigh both the costs and benefits to their specialty to 
determine whether conducting a practice expense survey would be 
worthwhile.
(iii) Submission of Supplemental Surveys
    Three organizations submitted supplemental survey data for 
consideration for CY 2002. Survey data were submitted by the American 
Physical Therapy Association (APTA), the American Optometric 
Association (AOA), and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP). Our 
contractor, The Lewin Group, has evaluated the data submitted by each 
organization. They have recommended that we use the data submitted by 
APTA and AOA and reject the data submitted by AAP. The full 
recommendation and discussion will be made available on the CMS web 
site. (See the Supplementary Information section of this rule for 
directions on accessing our web site.)
    We have decided not to use the data submitted by APTA, AOA, or AAP 
because none of the surveys met all of our stated criteria. In our May 
3, 2000 interim final rule (65 FR 25666), we indicated that, based on 
our review of existing physician practice expense surveys, we believe 
that an achievable level of precision is a coefficient of variation 
(that is, the ratio of the standard error of the mean to the mean 
expressed as a percent) not greater than 10 percent for overall 
practice expenses or practice expenses per hour. For existing surveys, 
the standard deviation is frequently the same magnitude as the mean. We 
indicated in the May 2000 interim final rule that we would consider 
practice expenses for which the precision of practice expenses is equal 
to or better than this level of precision and that meet the other 
survey criteria. None of the surveys submitted for 2002 met the level 
of precision criteria; therefore, we have decided not to use the survey 
data.

b. CPEP Data

(i) 2000 RUC Recommendations on CPEP Inputs
    In the November 2000 final rule (65 FR 65393), we responded to the 
RUC recommendations for the refinement of the direct inputs for 49 CPT 
codes and for the supply and equipment inputs for four additional 
services. These recommendations reflected multispecialty agreement on 
the typical resources for many important services, including visit 
codes, which account for approximately 24 percent of Medicare spending 
for physicians' services. We accepted almost all of these 
recommendations. We received the following comments on our responses to 
the RUC recommendations and on the PEAC/RUC refinement process:
    Comment: Several specialty societies representing osteopaths, 
rheumatologists, neurologists, ophthalmologists, obstetricians, and 
gynecologists commended us for implementing the refinements submitted 
by the PEAC and RUC as part of the on-going refinement process. One 
specialty society stated that it was encouraged by the direction 
pursued with the physician fee schedule for 2001, because it 
demonstrated the ability to achieve refinement within the parameters of 
the fee schedule comment process. Another commenter expressed 
appreciation for our support of the PEAC and RUC refinement process 
because this relationship is critical to establishing fair and balanced 
payment policies.
    In addition, other commenters praised our staff for being helpful 
in responding to the PEAC members' questions during meetings, as well 
as for the willingness to work with physician specialty societies 
toward establishing fair and appropriate reimbursement values. The RUC 
commented that it agreed that the PEAC has made significant progress in 
its ability to review and refine direct practice expense inputs for 
individual CPT codes.
    Response: We appreciate the above comments and are also encouraged 
by the progress that the PEAC and RUC have made in refining the 
practice expense inputs.
    Comment: The RUC agreed that the PEAC should continue to meet and 
refine the direct practice expense data. Therefore, it hopes that we 
will state that the practice expense RVUs will continue to be interim 
and subject to refinement as the PEAC continues its review. A specialty 
society representing ophthalmology echoed this request stating that, 
because the PEAC is continuing the refinement process, the interim 
status of the practice expense RVUs should be reaffirmed in the rule. 
The commenter requested that the RVUs remain interim and subject to 
change until 2007, that is, until the first update of the five-year 
review of practice expense RVUs.
    Response: We are pleased that the RUC and PEAC are willing to 
continue the task of helping us to refine the practice expense inputs 
for the approximately 7,000 services in the physician fee schedule. We 
intend to keep the practice expense RVUs as interim as long as this 
refinement process is necessary. Also, as noted above, we will accept, 
for another 2 years, supplemental survey data that meet our criteria. 
During this period, we will also continue to make improvements to our 
practice expense methodology.
    Comment: A commenter representing three ophthalmology sub-
specialties, though appreciative of our implementation of the PEAC 
recommendations, expressed disappointment that we have not made the 
non-controversial revisions to correct additional errors in the CPEP 
database. The commenter encouraged us to explore alternative ways to 
improve the quality of the CPEP data without waiting for the PEAC to 
consider each of the thousands of alleged errors.
    Response: We have made changes to the CPEP data in those instances 
when there was a clear anomaly in the data and when the more 
appropriate revision would be obvious, without the benefit of a 
multispecialty recommendation. However, we have found that the input 
and recommendations of a multispecialty group, such as the PEAC, have 
played a crucial role for the vast majority of suggested revisions when 
clinical judgment is involved.
    Comment: An organization representing diagnostic imaging centers 
stated that it would be inappropriate for the PEAC to constitute the 
review body for direct cost data for technical component services, 
because the PEAC does not include any representatives of diagnostic 
imaging centers. The commenter requested that, if any of the CPEP 
direct cost data form the basis for future payment for technical 
component services, the accuracy of these data should be reviewed by 
representatives of centers that actually provide the services involved.
    Response: We do not agree that it is inappropriate for the PEAC to 
review

[[Page 55256]]

the direct cost inputs for imaging services. The presentations for each 
service discussed at the PEAC are based either on surveys or panels of 
individuals who are familiar with the procedure in question. In 
addition, any of the recommendations of the PEAC that we accept are 
subject to review and comment by any interested party.
    Comment: Societies representing surgeons, urologists, 
ophthalmologists, pediatrics, internists, and family physicians 
strongly support our acceptance of the revisions of CPEP inputs for 
office-based E/M services. One specialty society commented that the 
refined inputs for these services reflect the work of a 
multidisciplinary workgroup and demonstrate a major positive step 
toward streamlining practice expense inputs. One surgical specialty 
society did not fully agree that it is appropriate to use these E/M 
inputs to refine postsurgical visits because the direct costs 
associated with these visits are not necessarily comparable to the 
typical E/M visit. On the other hand, a primary care specialty society 
commented that the ``rolling'' implementation of CPEP refinement 
creates an anomaly because the surgical global services have not yet 
had these lower PEAC estimates for the E/M visits applied.
    Response: We also saw the refinement of the practice expense inputs 
for the E/M codes as a significant milestone in the whole refinement 
process. These codes not only represent a sizeable portion of Medicare 
payments, but they also are used by most medical specialties, and, 
thus, most members of the PEAC had a stake in the outcome of this 
issue. We believe that, as a result of the extensive multispecialty 
discussion held by the PEAC on this issue, the recommendations on the 
E/M codes represent the best available estimates of the direct inputs 
needed for performing these services. With respect to the issue of 
applying these E/M inputs to the surgical global services, we will not 
be taking separate action now, but will be responding to the specific 
PEAC recommendations. We understand that it is expected that all the 
90-day global surgical services will be refined by the PEAC by next 
year.
    Comment: A specialty society representing internal medicine 
commented that the registered nurse (RN) and licensed practical nurse 
(LPN) staff mix should be used for the E/M codes rather than the RN, 
LPN, and medical assistant staff mix, which is less typical. The 
commenter also stated that we should increase the postservice clinical 
staff work for these services by 20 percent.
    Response: We do not agree with changing the staff mix at this time, 
particularly because the PEAC recommendations have used this staff mix 
across the majority of refined services. We also have seen no evidence 
to suggest that the post-times for these services were undervalued.
(ii) 2001 RUC Recommendations on CPEP Inputs
    We have received recommendations from the PEAC on the refinement to 
the CPEP inputs for over 1,100 codes. These include refinements of 
large numbers of orthopedic, dermatology, pathology, physical medicine, 
and ophthalmology services. In addition, the PEAC confirmed that there 
were no inputs for over 150 ZZZ-global procedures that are performed 
only in the facility and no supply or equipment inputs for almost 700 
facility-only services with an XXX or 0-day global period. We believe 
this large increase in the number of CPT codes that have been refined 
demonstrates that the PEAC refinement process is working due to the 
valiant efforts of the AMA staff and the specialty societies 
participating in this mammoth undertaking. There is also reason to 
believe that the pace of refinement will continue to increase because 
of the steps that the PEAC is taking to create standardized packages of 
clinical staff time, supplies, or equipment that can be applied over a 
wide range of services.
    We have reviewed the submitted PEAC recommendations and have 
accepted most of them with only minor revisions. The complete PEAC 
recommendations and the revised CPEP database can be found on our web 
site. (See the Supplementary Information section of this rule for 
directions on accessing our web site.)The following is a list of the 
only revisions we made to the PEAC recommendations:
     We substituted the multispecialty minimum visit supply 
package or the ophthalmology supply package for the list of individual 
supplies, when appropriate.
     We deleted separately billable supplies, for example, 
drugs, fluids, and casting supplies, when listed in the recommended 
supply list.
     We rounded fractions of minutes of clinical staff time to 
the nearest minute.
     For CPT code 52281, cystoscopy and treatment, we deleted 
the bougie a boule from the equipment list. The specialty society 
supplied us with the price of $105 for this item, which does not meet 
the minimum cost of $500 for an item to be included in the equipment 
list.
     For several ophthalmology services that did not involve 
dilation of the pupil, we consulted with the specialty society and 
deleted the ophthalmology visit supply package that was listed for the 
post-procedure visit. This package is intended for those services where 
dilation is necessary. The society confirmed that no supplies are 
needed for the post-procedure visit for these services.
     The recommendation did not specify the number of EEG 
electrodes for CPT code 92585, auditory evoked potential, 
comprehensive. We added seven electrodes, which is the same number 
assigned to the visual evoked potential code.
     The PEAC/RUC recommendations included time for the 
clinical staff type, ``Physical Therapy Assistant (PTA),'' which 
currently is not included in our CPEP input database. We are pricing 
the PTAs by using the Bureau of Labor Statistics wage estimates for 
physical therapy assistants. The base annual salary we are using will 
be $33,690. After factoring in benefits and adjusting this to 2001 
dollars, the per minute rate will be $0.386.
     We have two concerns about the PEAC recommendations for 
therapy services. First, we believe that some of the duties ascribed to 
the physical therapy assistant are actually therapist services that are 
already captured in the work RVUs. Therefore, we are deleting from all 
the therapy codes the clinical staff time for obtaining vital signs and 
measurements, patient education, and phone calls. Because we believe 
that the resulting clinical staff times may be too low for the physical 
therapy and occupational therapy evaluation and reevaluation services, 
we are adding 7 additional minutes for the therapy aide in each of 
these codes. In addition, some of the occupational therapy codes 
contain several pieces of very expensive equipment called environmental 
modules. Because it is unclear how many of these modules would 
typically be used for each service, we are only including one module 
for each code that might use this equipment. We note that for three 
services, CPT codes 97530, 97535, and 97537, the PEAC did not submit a 
recommendation for equipment, presumably because of the difficulty of 
determining what would be typically used. In those cases, as in those 
with a PEAC recommendation, we are allowing for one module and some 
smaller equipment that was suggested by the specialty. We would hope to 
work with the specialty societies to obtain more precise information on 
the appropriate equipment for all of these therapy services.

[[Page 55257]]

     We note that one of the services for which we received 
recommendations, the casting/strapping procedure CPT code 29799, is 
carrier-priced. In addition, we received recommendations for two fine 
needle aspiration services, CPT codes 88170 and 88171, which are now 
deleted.
(iii) Other Comments on Refinement of CPEP Inputs
    Comment: Several commenters were pleased that we finalized certain 
proposals regarding CPEP inputs, such as the following:
     The reinstatement of the pre-procedure clinical staff time 
in the facility setting for certain 0-day global services as well as 
pre-service time for the vitrectomy codes.
     Our decision to uphold the proposed refinements regarding 
inpatient dialysis CPT codes 90935 and 90945.
     The clarification of Medicare payment policy for cast 
supplies when used for non-fracture/dislocation procedures.
     The decision to retain Unna boot in the supplies for CPT 
code 29580.
     The correction of the supply list for CPT code 88104 and 
the establishment of a separate nonfacility practice expense RVU for 
CPT code 85607 in the 2001 fee schedule.
     The extension of the code-specific refinement beyond 2002.
    Response: We appreciate the above comments and will strive to 
continue refining the practice expense RVUs in a manner that is fair 
and beneficial to the medical community.
    Comment: An allergy clinic commented that because of our definition 
of a dose for CPT code 95165, Allergy Immunotherapy, doctors will be 
forced to use a dosage that could be harmful to certain patients.
    Response: The definition of a dose will be used only for pricing 
the practice expense inputs for this service. Physicians should use 
their clinical judgment in determining what dose to use for any 
particular patient.
    Comment: A commenter noted that the two codes for anal balloon 
sphincterplasty (CPT codes 49505 and 49510) did not have the balloon 
listed in the supply inputs.
    Response: We agree that this was an omission and have added the 
balloon to the supply list for both services.
    Comment: A commenter stated that there are no practice expense 
inputs assigned to CPT code 36533, insertion of implantable venous 
access port, with or without subcutaneous reservoir, in the nonfacility 
setting, because the CPEP panels priced it only in the facility. In 
particular, the supply inputs do not contain the cost of the catheter 
that is an integral part of the procedure.
    Response: It is true that the original CPEP panel did not price 
this in the nonfacility setting; however, we subsequently crosswalked 
the inputs from the facility to the nonfacility setting for supplies, 
equipment, and clinical staff, adding clinical staff time for the 
intraservice period in the office. However, we agree that the catheter 
is an appropriate supply and have added it to the supply list for this 
code.
    Comment: A specialty society representing podiatrists questioned 
why the practice expense RVUs for the nail trimming codes G0127 and CPT 
code 11719 are not the same. The commenter stated that they should have 
the same CPEP inputs since both were refined by the PEAC this year with 
identical inputs.
    Response: The CPEP inputs are now identical for both codes, except 
that the supplies recommendation for CPT code 11719 does not include a 
surgical mask. However, none of this year's PEAC recommendations were 
reflected in the August 2001 proposed rule. In addition, even codes 
with identical CPEP inputs can have different practice expense RVUs if 
a different mix of specialties performs each service.
    Comment: Two specialty societies representing cardiologists and 
electrophysiologists commented that we have allowed 60 minutes of 
clinical staff time to arrange for surgical procedures with a 90-day 
global period, but we have not yet allowed the same for 0-day global 
period procedures in facilities. The commenters stated that they may 
present specific codes to the PEAC with the recommendation that this 
time be recognized for these services, and they hope that we will be 
receptive to these recommendations.
    Response: We will be glad to review any PEAC recommendations on 
clinical staff pre-service time for 0-day global period services in the 
facility setting if and when we receive them.
(iv) Repricing of Clinical Staff Wage Rates
    In the August 2, 2001 proposed rule (66 FR 40378), we proposed 
modifications of wage rates for the clinical staff types contained in 
the CPEP database. Our contractor, Abt Associates, assigned the costs 
of the original CPEP inputs for staff, supplies, and equipment based 
primarily on 1994 and 1995 pricing data.
    The original Abt Associates' estimates of clinical staff wage rates 
relied primarily on the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) data. Abt's 
report on the CPEP cost estimation stated that, ``* * * the BLS data 
were considered to be the preferred data set. The BLS'' reputation for 
publishing valid estimates that are nationally representative led to 
the choice of the BLS data as the main source. If more than one data 
set provided an exact mapping for a receptionist, then the BLS wage was 
chosen over any other mapping.''
    We agreed with this assessment and have used the most current BLS 
survey (1999) as the main source of wage data.
    It should be noted that the BLS discontinued the Occupational 
Compensation Survey used by Abt in 1995 and now conducts the National 
Compensation Survey that has a breakdown of staff types different from 
the earlier survey. Also, this survey does not cover all the staff 
types contained in the CPEP data. Therefore, it was necessary for us to 
crosswalk or extrapolate the wages for several staff types using 
supplementary data sources for verification whenever possible.
    We used three other data sources to price wages of staff types that 
were not referenced in the BLS data:
     The American Society of Clinical Pathologists' survey of 
laboratory staff salaries (found at www.ascp.org).
     The survey performed by the American Academy of Health 
Physics and the American Board of Health Physics (found at 
www.hps1.org).
     The national salary data from the Salary Expert, an 
Internet site that develops national and local salary ranges and 
averages for thousands of job titles using mainly government sources. 
(A detailed explanation of the methodology used to determine the 
specific job salaries can be found at www.salaryexpert.com).

We also solicited any valid survey data that commenters might be able 
to submit to us.
    The proposed cost per minute for each staff type was derived by 
dividing the proposed annual salary (converted to 2001 dollars using 
the Medicare Economic Index) by 2080 to arrive at the hourly wage rate 
and then again by 60 to arrive at the per minute cost. To account for 
the employers' cost of providing fringe benefits, such as sick leave, 
we used the same benefits multiplier of 1.366 used by Abt Associates.
    Comment: We received several supportive comments on our efforts to 
update the clinical staff salaries used in calculating the practice 
expense RVUs. Specialty societies representing family physicians and 
surgeons supported the proposal to reprice clinical staff salaries to 
approximate current practice

[[Page 55258]]

expenses. A specialty society representing rheumatology stated that the 
repricing of clinical staff salary data represents an overdue positive 
step toward more accurate refinement of practice expense inputs. A 
specialty society representing dermatology agreed with the 
appropriateness of bundling similar clinical staff types into more 
easily identified and easily tracked clinical labor blended categories.
    Response: We agree that using current wage data to price the 
clinical staff CPEP inputs is one step in ensuring that the practice 
expense RVUs are based on the resources needed to perform each service. 
We also would like to express our appreciation to the groups that 
included salary survey data on various staff types as part of their 
comments. These additional data have helped us to make appropriate 
revisions to our original proposals.
    The following is a discussion of the specific proposals we made on 
the pricing of clinical staff types.
     We received no comments on the following proposals. 
Therefore, they will be implemented as proposed.
     We will price as proposed the staff types physical therapy 
aide, LPN, RN, certified surgical technician, laboratory technician, 
cytotechnologist, cardiovascular technician, nuclear medicine 
technician, optician, respiratory therapist, speech pathologist, 
audiologist, and counselor.
     We will collapse the medical assistant, technical aide, 
medical technician, EKG technician, anesthesia technician, technician, 
and cast technician staff types into a new staff type, ``medical or 
technical assistant (MTA),'' that will be priced at the medical 
assistant wage rate of $0.26 per minute.
    + We will bundle the staff type ``RN-cardiology'' into the staff 
type ``RN.''
    + We will adjust the wage rate for the oncology-certified nurse to 
be 18 percent higher than the RN.
    + We will bundle the staff type ``surgery assistant'' into the 
staff type ``certified surgical technician (CST).''
    + We will use the average hourly rate of $15.60 for histologic 
technologists from the 1998 American Society of Clinical Pathologists' 
survey to price the histotechnologist staff type.
    + We will use the BLS salary data for electroneurodiagnostic 
technologists contained in the BLS Occupational Outlook Handbook to 
price the electrodiagnostic technologist staff type.
    + We will price the wage rate for the EEG technician using survey 
data from the Salary Expert.
    + We will merge the nuclear cardiology technician in with the 
nuclear medicine technician staff type.
     We were unable to find any national salary data for the 
electron microscopy technician and, in the absence of such data, 
proposed crosswalking the salary from the wage rate for the 
histotechnologist. Though this represented an increase in the per 
minute cost for this staff type, we stated that we would welcome 
reliable national survey data from the specialty that we could use in 
pricing electron microscopy technicians.
    Comment: The specialty society representing pathologists 
recommended that the wage rate for electron microscopy (EM) technician, 
which we proposed crosswalking from that of the histologic 
technologist, should more accurately be priced at the same wage rate as 
the cytotechnologist. The commenter stated that histologic 
technologists are generally bachelor degree level personnel, whereas EM 
technicians generally have post-baccalaureate education, parallel to 
that of a cytotechnologist. In addition, they receive salaries that are 
higher than general histotechnologists. The commenter also recommended 
that the title of the EM technician category be changed to EM 
technologist.
    Response: We are persuaded that the commenter has proposed a more 
suitable crosswalk for this staff type. Therefore, we will crosswalk 
the wage rate for the EM technologist from that of the 
cytotechnologist. We will also change the title as suggested by the 
specialty society.
     We were unable to find any national salary data for 
registered electroencephalograph technologists (REEGTs) and proposed to 
maintain the current rate, since the speciality society had recently 
recommended this rate of pay. However, we also requested reliable 
national survey data from the specialty that we could use in pricing 
these three levels of neurodiagnostic staff.
    Comment: The American Academy of Neurology (AAN), on behalf of 
seven related organizations, submitted an abbreviated version of the 
2000 American Society of Electroneurodiagnostic Technologists (ASET) 
Salary Survey. The commenter stated that this national salary survey 
has been collected triennially by ASET, the main national body 
representing this allied health professional field, and was not 
collected for any purpose connected with the physician fee schedule. 
For office-based registered electroencephalograph technologists, there 
were 31 responses and a mean salary per hour of $20.11. For all REEGTs, 
there were 559 responses and a mean salary of $20.53 per hour. The 
commenters recommend that we substitute either of these salary rates to 
determine the costs for the REEGT staff type. The specialty society 
representing sleep medicine requested that we consider the updated 
salary data that AAN included in its comments on the proposed rule.
    Response: We have reviewed this survey and believe that it provides 
a more appropriate estimate of the wage rate of REEGTs than did our 
crosswalk to a staff type used in a different specialty. We will use 
the data for the office-based REEGTS, which results in a wage rate of 
$0.47 per minute, which we note is not significantly different from our 
proposed rate for the REEGT staff type.
     We proposed to bundle the vascular technician with the 
cardiovascular technologist staff type. Currently both are priced at 
the same rate.
    Comment: The American Association for Vascular Surgery, American 
Society of Neuroimaging, Society of Diagnostic Medical Sonography, 
Society for Vascular Surgery, and Society of Vascular Technology 
submitted a joint comment as ``The Coalition.'' The Coalition argued 
that the BLS was wrong to classify vascular technologists with 
cardiovascular technologists and technicians because the BLS 
description of duties for this classification does not include any of 
the duties performed by a vascular technologist. In addition, the 
commenters contended that, unlike most cardiovascular technicians, a 
vascular technologist functions as a direct and largely independent 
health care practitioner. A skilled vascular technologist undergoes 
between 2 and 4 years of didactic and clinical post-secondary education 
as evidenced by the presence of a baccalaureate degree program in 
vascular technology.
    The Coalition recommended that we base the salaries for vascular 
technologists on data from a survey conducted earlier this year by 
nVision Research that surveyed by mail 406 randomly selected vascular 
technologists from a variety of settings. The response rate for this 
survey was 55 percent. Based on the survey, nVision Research determined 
that the median annual salary of a vascular technologist is $49,758. A 
copy of the survey was included with the comment. The commenters also 
recommended that we change the description of the ``vascular 
technician'' to ``vascular technologist.'' A specialty society 
representing echocardiography urged that we adopt the classification of 
``vascular

technologist'' as proposed by the above groups.
    Response: We agree that the nomenclature of the staff type should 
be changed to ``vascular technologist.'' We have studied the data 
provided by the Coalition and have consulted with our medical advisors 
and now also agree that the salary shown in the submitted survey better 
represents the current wage rate for vascular technologists. Therefore, 
we will assign the vascular technologist staff type the recommended 
yearly salary of $49,758 which results in a per minute wage rate of 
$0.54.
     We proposed to merge the x-ray technician and radiation 
technologist staff types, which are currently priced at the same rate, 
into a staff type called ``Radiologic Technologist.''
    Comment: The American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT) 
submitted with their comment the 2001 ``Radiologic Technologist Wage 
and Salary Survey'' commissioned by the organization. The comment 
disagreed with our proposal to merge the x-ray technician and radiation 
technologist staff types. The society stated that the radiation 
technologist has completed a formal educational program and has 
successfully passed a nationally recognized credentialing examination; 
an x-ray technician denotes a person who is most likely informally 
trained and who is often employed to perform only very limited x-ray 
examinations. On the other hand, a society representing therapeutic 
radiology and oncology recommended that we not crosswalk radiation 
technologists to ``radiologic technologists and technicians,'' but, 
instead, change the crosswalk and the name to ``radiation therapist.''
    Response: We can understand why the original nomenclature assigned 
by the CPEP panels to these staff types would be confusing to the 
commenters. However, it is clear from the imaging services to which the 
radiation technologist is assigned that this staff type was not 
considered to be a radiation therapist. In addition, we do not disagree 
with the distinction made by ASRT between an x-ray technician and a 
radiation technologist. However, the CPEP panel did not appear to make 
this same distinction. In fact, the x-ray technician is often assigned 
to more complex services than the radiation therapist and Abt 
Associates priced the two staff types at the same wage rate. Therefore, 
we have made the decision to consider both staff types to be at the 
same level and to change the title of both to ``radiologic 
technologist.'' If it is necessary to make a distinction between 
different levels of radiologic staff, this can be done as part of the 
refinement process.
    Comment: A commenter representing imaging centers recommended that 
we substitute the ``more accurate and recent salary information'' 
obtained by the ASRT for the pricing of radiologic technologists. The 
commenter stated that these data indicate that the mean salary of full-
time radiologic technologists is $53,919.
    Response: We have reviewed the survey submitted to us by ASRT and 
have found it to be both comprehensive and useful. We would note that 
the $53,919 referenced in the comment is the mean salary for all 
radiologic personnel and includes the salaries of staff level personnel 
as well as chief technologists and of radiography staff as well as 
dosimetrists. Therefore, this is not salary information that can be 
used to price the specific radiology staff types in our database. 
However, as discussed below, we have used other ASRT data to price 
certain staff types for which we had no other pricing information. It 
is interesting to note that the mean salary in the ASRT survey for 
radiography staff is $36,862, while the 2001 salary rate for the 
equivalent staff based on the BLS is $37,126; the use of either figure 
would result in an almost identical per-minute wage rate. This 
information gives us extra confidence in our proposed wage rate of 
$0.41 per minute for radiologic technologists, and we will be 
implementing this salary rate as proposed.
     Because we were unable to find any national survey data 
regarding the salaries for CAT scan technician, MRI technician, or 
angiographic technician, we proposed crosswalking these staff types to 
the BLS radiologic technologist pay scale. We also stated that we would 
welcome any reliable national survey data that would allow us to 
separately price these staff types.
    Comment: The American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT) 
recommended that we use the 2001 ASRT survey submitted with its comment 
to price the MRI, CAT scan and angiographic technologists, rather than 
crosswalking their wage rate from the radiologic technologist. The ASRT 
data show an annual salary of $42,143 for a CAT scan technologist and 
$43,118 for an MRI technologist.
    Response: We have reviewed the ASRT data for MRI and CAT scan 
technologists and will use that data for MRI and CT staff to price 
these staff types. There is a close congruence between the ASRT and the 
BLS salaries for those radiologic staff for whom we have data from both 
sources. Therefore, we have confidence that the wage rate we will use 
for the CAT scan and MRI technologists will be relatively correct. The 
wage rate for the CAT scan technologist will be $0.46 per minute and 
for the MRI technologist $0.47 per minute. We could not find data in 
the ASRT survey corresponding to the angiographic technician. 
Therefore, until some reliable national data are available, we will 
continue to crosswalk this wage rate from that of the radiologic 
technologist.
     We proposed merging the cardiac sonographer and the 
ultrasound technician into the sonographer staff type. Currently, all 
three are priced at the same rate.
    Comment: The group of specialty societies commenting as the 
``Coalition'' recommended that we maintain the description, ``cardiac 
sonographer,'' eliminate the description, ``ultrasound technician,'' 
and change the description ``sonographer'' to ``diagnostic medical 
sonographer.'' A specialty society representing echocardiography 
strongly urged that we adopt the above classifications proposed by the 
Coalition. This commenter also contended that crosswalking the salary 
for cardiac sonographers from that of diagnostic medical sonographers 
does not adequately reflect the salaries currently paid to cardiac 
sonographers. The society is currently seeking a reliable source of 
current survey information so that we can price cardiac sonographers 
separately.
    Response: We have already proposed eliminating the description 
``ultrasound technician'' and will accept the description of 
``diagnostic medical sonographer.'' We proposed merging the cardiac 
sonographer into the sonographer classification because the two staff 
types were currently priced the same and we did not have any other 
salary data for the cardiac sonographers. However, we will accept the 
recommendation to keep the category ``cardiac sonographer'' and would 
be willing to reconsider the pricing if valid salary data are 
submitted.
     Because we were unable to find salary information for the 
staff type ``dosimetrist,'' we proposed crosswalking their salary from 
that of radiation therapists.
    Comment: The American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT) 
recommended that we review our proposed equal wages rates for radiation 
therapists and dosimetrists. The commenter reported that the annual 
salary of $57,330 for staff dosimetrists shown in the submitted 2001 
ASRT survey is considerably higher than that for radiation therapists, 
which reflects their additional educational

[[Page 55260]]

requirements. The specialty society representing radiology also opposed 
combining dosimetrists and radiation therapists in the same group 
because these two staff types provide very different services for 
radiation oncology procedures and are paid on different pay scales. 
This commenter agreed with the proposed increased wage rate for 
radiation therapists, but believed that the dosimetrists would be paid 
approximately 20 percent more than their proposed rate. Two other 
societies, one representing therapeutic radiology and oncology and one 
representing radiation oncology centers, also supported an increase for 
dosimetrists and one commenter suggested that we substitute the title 
``medical dosimetrist.'' In addition, these two commenters recommended 
that we use the ASRT data for radiation therapists as well.
    Response: We appreciate receiving the ASRT data for dosimetrists 
and agree that the annual salary suggested by the ASRT survey more 
accurately reflects the appropriate wage rate for this staff type. The 
wage rate will be $0.63 per minute. We will also change the title for 
this staff type to ``medical dosimetrist.'' We will continue to use the 
BLS data to determine the wage rate for radiation therapists since 
there has been no evidence presented to show that the BLS survey was in 
any way not representative.
     We proposed using the average salary data for all 
certified health physicists from the 1999 survey conducted by the 
American Academy of Health Physics and the American Board of Health 
Physics to price the ``physicist'' staff type.
    Comment: Three specialty societies representing radiology, 
therapeutic radiology and oncology, and radiation oncology centers 
recommended that we use the Professional Information Survey data from 
The American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) rather than 
from the American Academy of Health Physics (AAHP). One commenter 
pointed out that the AAHP survey does not include physicists working in 
radiation oncology. The AAPM survey for CY 2000 had an overall response 
rate of 58 percent and demonstrated an average annual salary of 
$107,900. One commenter suggested that we also change the title to 
``medical physicist.''
    Response: No copy of the AAPM survey was included with any of the 
comments, and we have been unable to review it at this time. However, 
we would not question the commenters' assertion that the AAPM survey 
was more relevant to physicists working in radiation oncology than the 
survey we used to determine our proposed wage rate. Therefore, we are 
using the AAPM survey salary of $107,900 on an interim basis to price 
the physicist wage rate and will endeavor to obtain and review this 
survey to finalize this issue. The wage rate for 2002 will be $1.21 per 
minute. For clarity, we will also accept the recommendation to change 
the title to ``medical physicist.''
     We were unable to obtain representative national salary 
data for the certified ophthalmic technician (COT), the certified 
ophthalmic medical technologist (COMT), or the orthoptist staff types. 
We proposed to crosswalk the COT and COMT to the laboratory technician 
and histotechnician, respectively, since we believe that the skill and 
responsibility of these staff types would generally correspond. In the 
absence of any national salary data for the orthoptist, we proposed to 
crosswalk the salary from that of the COMT, the highest level of 
ophthalmic medical personnel. We also proposed crosswalking the salary 
data for the certified retinal angiographer from the data listed for 
ophthalmic photographers in the Salary Expert. We stated that we would 
welcome reliable and representative national salary data for these 
staff types.
    Comment: The specialty society representing ophthalmologists 
commented that they would be pleased to offer additional assistance to 
validate the salaries for ophthalmic medical technicians and other 
ophthalmic clinical staff. At this time, the commenter agreed that the 
proposed crosswalks for these staff types are acceptable.
    Response: We will be implementing these crosswalks as proposed.
     We proposed to crosswalk the wage rate for the staff type 
``dietitian'' from the BLS salary data for dietitians and 
nutritionists.
    Comment: The American Dietetic Association (ADA) commented that it 
believed that the BLS database includes salaries for non-credentialed 
dietitians and nutritionists and that we should reference ADA data from 
its membership surveys that estimates 2001 adjusted median annual 
income for dietitians to be $51,006.
    Response: We would be willing to look at the ADA survey data if 
they were submitted to us. We would, of course, have to review and 
analyze these alternative survey data before we could substitute them 
for the BLS data that we have proposed to use. However, until we are 
convinced that the ADA data were equally or more representative of 
dietitians who serve as clinical staff for services on the fee 
schedule, we will continue to use the BLS data as our source of salary 
data for dietitians.
     We proposed to delete those clinical staff that can bill 
separately from the list of CPEP staff types. Therefore, we proposed 
substituting physical therapy aide for physical therapist, registered 
nurse for physician assistant, nurse practitioner and psychologist, and 
counselor for social worker.
    Comment: Two specialty societies representing internal medicine and 
family practice expressed support for this proposal because these staff 
types, for example, nurse practitioners, are used as physician 
extenders and their salaries should not be considered as practice 
expense. A society representing geriatrics argued that we should not 
delete the clinical staff that can bill separately from the list of 
CPEP staff types because not all of these individuals bill separately, 
resulting in a negative impact on geriatrics.
    Response: We will implement our proposal to delete clinical staff 
that can bill independently from our practice expense input database, 
with the two exceptions noted below. We believe that the costs of these 
staff types are not practice expenses and should be captured in the 
work RVUs. This revision to our clinical staff list should not have a 
negative impact on geriatrics because none of the deleted staff types 
were assigned to any of the E/M services that would make up a large 
percentage of geriatricians' case loads.
    Comment: A society representing social workers commented that it 
was not opposed to the deletion from the practice expense inputs of 
staff types that can bill directly. However, the commenter pointed out 
that only clinical social workers are able to bill directly, while 
other social workers cannot. Therefore, the society is opposed to the 
deletion of the staff type, ``social worker,'' from the CPEP inputs and 
the substitution of the staff type, ``counselor.'' In addition, the 
society would at least want the BLS data for ``social worker'' to be 
used for pricing, though it believes that the BLS data does not 
differentiate enough between the various types of practice within 
social work.
    Response: The commenter is correct in stating that not all social 
workers can bill directly. Therefore, we will keep the social worker 
staff type in our database and will use the BLS data for ``social 
worker'' to determine the appropriate wage rate. In addition, we will 
not delete the staff type, ``psychologist,'' which is listed as the 
clinical staff for the psychological testing services. Because these 
services have no

[[Page 55261]]

physician work RVUs, the work of the psychologist can only be captured 
through the practice expense RVUs. We can find no appropriate national 
salary at this time for this staff type. Therefore, we will use the 
current wage rate of $0.82 per minute.
     We proposed to delete, as redundant, the ophthalmic 
medical personnel (OMP) staff type and to substitute the COMT/COT/RN/
CST blend that was suggested by the American Academy of Ophthalmology 
and recommended by the PEAC.
    Comment: The specialty society representing optometrists agrees 
with our proposal to delete, as redundant, the ophthalmic medical 
personnel (OMP) staff type and substitute the COMT/COT/RN/CST staff 
blend.
    Response: We will implement this as proposed. Table 1 lists each 
staff type remaining in our practice expense input database, the source 
of the data, the staff type crosswalk used, the proposed annual salary 
in 2001 dollars, the 2002 wage rate per minute (including benefits) and 
the current cost per minute (including benefits).

    The CPEP clinical staff inputs also include blends of staff types 
that are used for those services when more than one type of clinical 
staff may be used in the performance of the service. We will establish 
the payment rates for these blends by calculating a simple average of 
the wage rates of the staff types included. Table 2 shows the blended 
staff types, the 2002 cost per minute and the current cost per minute.

    Note: We received no comments on the proposed cost per minute 
for the staff blends, so these rates will be implemented as 
proposed.

(v) Revision of the Ophthalmology Visit Supply Package
    In its May 2000 submission to us, the RUC recommended the use of an 
ophthalmology visit supply package that would contain the routine 
supplies typically used in each 90-day global postsurgical visit for 
ophthalmology services. We accepted this recommendation. However, upon 
further review, we noted that two of the supplies, rev eyes and post 
myd spectacles, were not used in many of the postsurgical office 
visits. Therefore, after consulting with the ophthalmology specialty 
society, we proposed to remove these two items from the ophthalmology 
visit package. Instead, we proposed including these items as 
appropriate on a code-by-code basis.

    Note: Since we received no comments on this issue, we will 
implement this revision on the supply package as proposed.

(vi) Deletion of Contrast Agents from the Practice Expense Inputs
    Section 430(b) of BIPA amends section 1861(t)(1) of the Act to 
include contrast agents in the definition of drugs and biologicals. 
Previously, contrast agents were defined as supplies and were included 
in the list of CPEP supplies for the appropriate services. Therefore, 
we proposed to delete the costs of the following contrast agents from 
our CPEP data: hypaque, methylene blue, high-density barium, polibar, 
telopaque tablets, barium paste contrast, effervescent sparkies 
(fizzies), and renographin-60 iodinated contrast.
    Comment: The specialty society representing radiology had no 
comment on the suggested list of deletions from the CPEP supplies. 
However, the society expressed concern that there are no HCPCS codes 
established for these deleted items and wanted information on how to 
bill for these supplies.
    Response: As stated above, we proposed to delete contrast agents 
from the practice expense inputs in response to legislation that 
included contrast agents in the definition of drugs. This proposal was 
made to ensure that we did not include in the practice expense the 
costs of items that could also be billed separately. However, section 
1842(o)(1) of the Act makes clear that the payment of 95 percent of the 
average wholesale price (AWP) can be made only if the drug is not paid 
on a cost or prospective payment basis. We believe that if we do 
include payment for any contrast agent in the practice expense RVUs, no 
other payment should be made for this item. After further consideration 
of this issue, however, we will continue to include the contrast agents 
listed in our proposal in our practice expense inputs at this time. 
Therefore, we are withdrawing the proposal.

c. Physician Time

RUC Time Database

    The primary sources for the physician time data used in creating 
the specialty-specific practice expense pools are the surveys performed 
for the initial establishment of the work RVUs and the surveys 
submitted to the AMA RUC. The AMA informed us that some of the times 
used for the November 1998 final rule (63 FR 58823) differed from the 
official RUC database, and we agreed to use the RUC-verified physician 
time database when we received it from the AMA. Subsequently, the AMA 
notified us that there were gaps in its own database for certain global 
surgery codes and that a revised time database would be sent to us once 
all the times were verified. We have now received this revised database 
and proposed to use it in the calculation of the specialty-specific 
practice expense pools. It should be noted that the RUC database 
reflects the physician times for those codes that were surveyed as part 
of the second 5-year review of physician work.
    Comment: We received a number of comments that supported using the 
physician time data. One commenter indicated that the new time database 
is expected to provide greater accuracy and consistency in the practice 
expense calculations. While commenters representing family physicians, 
internists, and rheumatologists supported use of the new time data, 
they also indicated that improvement is still needed. Specifically, 
these commenters suggested that the number and level of postoperative 
visits and the corresponding physician time included in the global 
surgical period may be overstated. The commenters noted that we 
previously indicated that we would study length of stay data relative 
to the number of postoperative visits and included in the surgical 
period, and they encouraged us to use this information to further 
refine the physician time data. One commenter indicated that surgeons 
rarely meet the criteria for billing critical care services in the 
postoperative period even though the time and value of critical care 
services are proposed for inclusion in the global period of some 
surgical codes.
    Organizations representing thoracic surgeons indicated that we 
should not incorporate the new time data that will result in additional 
practice expense reductions for thoracic and cardiac surgery. These 
commenters said that no further reductions in the practice expense RVUs 
for cardiac surgery should be made until new studies of practice 
expense related issues by the Office of Inspector General and the 
General Accounting Office are completed. This commenter indicated that 
the new physician time data covers only 585 of the 7,928 codes in the 
physician fee schedule but directly affects cardiothoracic surgery 
because there are revised times for many high volume heart and chest 
procedures. The commenter suggested that the new time information needs 
to be put in the context of changes in physician time that may have 
occurred in the last five to ten years on the remaining 7,343 procedure 
codes where there are no new physician times. Another commenter 
representing a cardiology subspecialty indicated that we incorporated 
RUC time data for only 1,900 of the more than 7,000 procedure codes. 
This commenter suggested that we should continue using available time 
from a single source until a consistent source that includes 
information on all CPT codes is available.
    Response: As indicated in the proposed rule, the RUC submitted 
physician time data for nearly 2,000 CPT codes in May 2001 and 
recommended that we use these new physician times in the practice 
expense methodology. The RUC recently sent new time for use in the 
final rule that reflected refinements for a few codes. We note that the 
source of the RUC times are actually the physician specialty societies 
themselves, including those associations that have objected to our use 
of the data. The data largely come from the specialty society surveys 
that were forwarded to the RUC to support requests for physician work 
RVUs for new and revised codes or services that were part of the 5-year 
review. The RUC made a comprehensive effort to validate these times 
before forwarding them to us. The RUC indicated to us that, over a 
period of 2

[[Page 55263]]

years, specialties had been provided with an opportunity to review the 
data and determine that they were accurately recorded.
    While the new times forwarded by the RUC represent a minority of 
CPT procedure codes, we note that they account for over 60 percent of 
the allowed services that are paid under the physician fee schedule. In 
response to the comment that we should make changes only when we have a 
single source of time data for all codes, we note that there has never 
been a single source of time for all codes. While time for some codes 
is based on the original work of Harvard University, there are many 
codes that came into existence since the Harvard survey was completed. 
The only data source for these codes is the RUC.
    We acknowledge that the Office of Inspector General is studying 
issues related to physicians bringing clinical staff to the hospital 
and the General Accounting Office is reviewing our use of supplemental 
practice expense survey data. Since these studies are unrelated to 
physician time, we do not believe they constitute a reason to suspend 
incorporation of the new time data into the practice expense 
methodology.
    In response to the comments that suggest that the physician times 
in the postoperative period may be overstated, the RUC indicated to us 
that ``a number of improvements were made to the specifications 
regarding the level of postoperative visits to more accurately capture 
each element of physician time.'' While the total times we received 
from the RUC reflect the number, types, and level of E/M services 
furnished in the postoperative surgical period, these services are not 
separately paid when furnished as part of a global surgical service. 
Since these services are not paid separately, it is difficult to find 
objective information that indicates how E/M services are provided in 
the postoperative period. Currently, the only source of information we 
can use is information that the RUC has supplied and data that 
previously existed in our files. While we have undertaken research that 
combines information on inpatient hospital stays with claims for 
physicians' services, these data have limitations for determining the 
level or type of visit being furnished in the postoperative period. We 
would consider any further evaluation by the RUC on this issue.

d. Calculation of Practice Expense--Other Issues

    Comment: Several commenters requested additional clarification and 
information concerning the cause of reductions of 9 to 13 percent in 
the practice expense RVUs for electrophysiology services. One commenter 
indicated that there was no explanation of the proposed reduction in 
practice expense for CPT codes 33207, 33208, 33249, and 93651. The 
commenter suggested that we should provide a more complete explanation 
of the proposed reductions or rescind them.
    Response: Our observation is that there is no more than a 9 percent 
reduction in practice expense RVUs for any of these codes. We also note 
that the change in total payment for these codes as a result of the 
change in practice expense RVUs is less than half of this amount. We 
modeled five different changes to the practice expense methodology in 
our August 2, 2001 proposed rule (66 FR 40397). Of these changes, the 
change to physician time has the greatest effect on these codes. Since 
the change in the practice expense RVUs results from new information 
that affects payments for all procedure codes, we are continuing to 
implement the reduction in practice expense RVUs that were proposed for 
these codes.
    Comment: We received one comment expressing concern that the 
separate professional interpretation and technical components for CPT 
code 95824 (cerebral death evaluation) have been eliminated. The 
commenter requested that we restore the professional and technical 
components of this service and crosswalk the technical component value 
from a similar code, CPT code 95822 (EEG, sleep only). The commenter 
also suggested that the work RVUs should be 1.08 RVUs, the same as 
similar EEG codes.
    Response: We have restored the separate professional and technical 
components of this service. This service will likely be exclusively 
furnished for patients who are in an institutional setting. Thus, we 
will pay under the physician fee schedule only for the professional 
interpretation. Payment for the technical component of the service will 
be made through our payment to the institution for facility services. 
Since the technical component of this service is never provided outside 
of a hospital, we do not have enough information under the resource-
based methodology to establish nonfacility pricing. In the unlikely 
event that this service is provided in the nonfacility setting, we are 
making the global and technical component of this service subject to 
carrier pricing. This change will apply to several other services that 
are not furnished in nonfacility settings. We are not making changes to 
the physician work RVUs for cerebral death evaluation in this final 
rule. There were no requests to revise the work RVUs for this code as 
part of the 5-year review of physician work.
    Comment: An organization representing vascular surgeons stated that 
the methodology used to incorporate the supplemental practice expense 
survey data has failed. This commenter indicated that the practice 
expense per hour for vascular surgeons increased by 9 percent from 
using supplemental data; however, payments actually declined between 
the November 2000 final rule and the August 2001 proposed rule. The 
commenter provided potential explanations for the change to practice 
expense RVUs. The commenter suggested that the results are inconsistent 
with the statute that requires payments to recognize all costs and 
violates the Administrative Procedure Act that rulemaking cannot be 
arbitrary and capricious.
    The commenter suggested an option that would result in a total 
increase in vascular surgery payments of 9 percent, consistent with the 
results of the supplemental survey. This option would involve 
identifying vascular surgery procedure codes that decreased in payment 
and reallocating RVUs such that aggregate payments to vascular surgeons 
would increase by 9 percent.
    Response: While the commenter is correct in stating that the 
practice RVUs for several high-volume vascular surgery procedures 
declined in our proposed rule, it is important to note that the changes 
occurred independent of the use of supplemental practice expense survey 
data. The supplemental practice expense survey data were incorporated 
into the methodology in the November 1, 2000 final rule (65 FR 65385).
    The changes that occurred between the November 2000 final rule and 
the August 2001 proposed rule were the result of the five changes to 
the methodology that we modeled and described in the August 2, 2001 (66 
FR 40397) proposed rule. The additional reductions in practice expense 
payments for vascular surgery codes that concern this commenter are 
attributed to the changes we made to physician time. As we have stated 
previously, the explanation of how time affects specific codes is 
complex and requires extensive data analysis. We would be willing to 
meet with interested parties to discuss the effects of the practice 
expense methodology further.
    The commenter suggests that we make decisions about an appropriate 
increase

[[Page 55264]]

in value for specific services and reallocate RVUs consistent with 
these decisions. We do not believe that such a policy would be 
appropriate. We have established a methodology for determining practice 
expenses and have valued all services using that process with the 
exception of services that have no physician work RVUs. For these 
services, we have established RVUs using an alternative methodology. It 
is not possible to deviate from those methodologies and reallocate RVUs 
to achieve particular results that may be more desirable to some 
individuals than to others. Such decisions about ``appropriateness'' 
would become highly subjective and would, in our view, be more likely 
to be criticized as arbitrary and capricious.
    Comment: We received comments from specialty societies representing 
technical component providers regarding the status of the zero-work 
pool. Commenters representing radiology, cardiology, echocardiography 
and radiation oncology centers strongly supported our position of 
maintaining the status of the zero-work pool until an appropriate 
alternative methodology can be determined. Two commenters argued that 
none of the direct or indirect cost information resulting from the CPEP 
process should be utilized to establish payment amounts for technical 
component services unless and until we further consider the entire 
methodology to be applied for technical component services. All 
commenters urged us to consult closely with associations representing 
the zero-work pool providers before making any changes in this regard. 
One commenter emphasized that no changes should be made without further 
research and discussion.
    Response: We agree that the status of the zero-work pool should not 
be changed until an alternate approach that values technical component 
services appropriately can be developed. Over the next several months, 
we will be analyzing the options for such an alternative approach 
contained in the report, ``The Resource-Based Practice Expense 
Methodology: An Analysis of Selected Topics,'' prepared by our 
contractor, The Lewin Group. This report can be found on our web site, 
and we would welcome comments on these options from all interested 
parties. (See the Supplementary Information section of this rule for 
directions on accessing our web site.) We also agree with the 
commenters that we should consult with the affected specialties as we 
proceed, and we will seek to maintain an open dialogue with the medical 
community on this issue.
    Comment: A commenter representing speech, language, and hearing 
professionals recommended that the zero-work pool be modified to accept 
the clinical staff wage increases. Seventy percent of the procedure 
codes used by audiologists that are covered by Medicare are in that 
pool and, thus, even though the proposed wage rate for audiologist has 
increased by 24 percent, this increase will not be reflected for those 
non-work services.
    Response: The commenter is correct in stating that, because the 
CPEP data are not used as allocators in the zero-work pool, the 
increases in the clinical staff wage rates will not affect the payments 
for audiology services at this time. However, as we mentioned above, we 
are seeking to develop an appropriate alternative for the zero-work 
pool and, when such an alternative is implemented, the revised wage 
rates will be applied to audiology services. In addition, we allow 
specialties to withdraw their services from the zero-work pool if the 
specialty believes that their services will be more appropriately 
valued outside that pool.
    Comment: An organization representing diagnostic imaging centers 
stated that, if we adopt the suggestion in the report of The Lewin 
Group to establish specialty-specific zero-work pools, it has already 
conducted a survey that establishes the costs per hour of providing 
diagnostic imaging technical component services. The commenter added 
that, regardless of the approach that we choose, the organization 
welcomes the opportunity to work with us with respect to any changes 
that may be contemplated in the zero-work pool methodology.
    Response: As we have noted above in our discussion on specialty-
specific supplementary surveys, all of these surveys must meet the 
criteria stated in our November 2000 final rule. We would be willing to 
review the survey to see if the data can be used to develop a 
specialty-specific practice expense per hour. In addition, we, too, 
would welcome the opportunity to work with the organization as we 
develop an alternative to the zero-work methodology.

e. Site-of-Service

Comments on Site-of-Service Clarification of Payment Policy
    In the November 2, 1998 final rule (63 FR 58830) and the November 
2, 1999 final rule (64 FR 59407), we indicated the circumstances under 
which either the facility or the nonfacility RVUs are used to calculate 
payment for a service. Specifically, we indicated that the lower 
facility practice expense RVUs apply when the service is performed in 
an Ambulatory Surgical Center (ASC) and the procedure is on the ASC-
approved procedures list. The higher nonfacility practice expense RVUs 
apply to procedures performed in an ASC that are not on the ASC-
approved list because there will be no separate facility payment for 
these services. As explained in the August 2001 proposed rule, we have 
received a number of inquiries about the place-of-service that should 
be used on the Medicare claim when a service that is not on the ASC-
approved procedures list is furnished in an ASC. In these 
circumstances, we stated that physicians should indicate ASC as the 
place-of-service on the Medicare claim. Other questions have arisen as 
to whether a beneficiary can be billed for the ASC facility fee when 
Medicare does not pay a facility fee because a procedure not on the ASC 
list is performed in a certified ASC. In this situation, Medicare pays 
the physician the higher nonfacility practice expense RVUs because the 
ASC is effectively serving as a physician's office, and Medicare's 
payment for the physician's service includes payment for all practice 
expenses incurred in furnishing the service. The ASC benefit is not 
implicated since the services do not meet the provisions of section 
1833(i) of the Act. The services are covered as physicians' services 
and paid under the physician fee schedule. Therefore, payment to the 
physician reflects payment for the whole service, and the beneficiary 
cannot be charged in excess of the limiting charge for the physician 
fee schedule service.
    Comment: Two commenters indicated that conditions of participation 
and/or survey and certification guidelines limit physicians in an ASC 
to furnishing only surgical procedures on the ASC approved list of 
procedures. They stated that such restrictions interfere with providing 
medical care that is in the patient's interest. The commenters request 
that we revise the regulations to allow physicians to furnish surgical 
and other medical procedures that are not on the approved ASC list in 
an ASC.
    Response: Because our proposal relates only to payment policy, we 
are finalizing it as proposed. The payment policy will apply to 
services furnished in an ASC that are not on the ASC-approved list to 
the extent that such services are permitted under the conditions of 
participation developed by our Office of Clinical Standards and Quality 
(OCSQ) and by the survey rules developed by our Center for Medicaid and 
State Operations (CMSO). It is our understanding that current 
regulations

[[Page 55265]]

that restrict ASCs to furnishing surgical services does not limit them 
to surgical services on the ASC-approved list, but rather, includes all 
surgical services. However, questions about rules that limit services 
that can be furnished in an ASC are beyond the scope of this final 
rule.

B. Nurse Practitioners, Physician Assistants, and Clinical Nurse 
Specialists Performing Screening Sigmoidoscopies

    Based on our review of current medical literature, we believe that 
nurse practitioners (NPs), clinical nurse specialists (CNSs), and 
physician assistants (PAs) whose services are covered under Medicare 
and who have been trained are qualified to perform screening 
sigmoidoscopies safely and accurately. Therefore, in the August 2, 2001 
proposed rule, we proposed revising Sec. 410.37(d) to provide that, in 
order for screening sigmoidoscopies to be covered, they must be 
performed by medical doctors, doctors of osteopathy, PAs, NPs, and 
CNSs, if they meet the applicable Medicare qualification requirements 
in Secs. 410.74, 410.75, and 410.76, and if they are authorized to 
perform these services under State law.
    Comment: Fifteen commenters addressed the issue of whether to allow 
non-physician health care professionals to perform screening flexible 
sigmoidoscopies for Medicare coverage and payment purposes. Four of the 
commenters representing national non-physician health care professional 
organizations and a health care consultant group enthusiastically 
supported the proposal. Ten commenters, all national medical 
associations or medical specialty groups, expressed various concerns 
about the proposal but agreed that it was appropriate for NPs, PAs, and 
CNSs to perform these services. These commenters suggested 
clarification and revision of the rule in a number of different areas, 
such as the need for physician supervision and appropriate training and 
experience standards, to ensure quality of care in the non-physician 
performance of these examinations. Two of these ten commenters that 
suggested the need for additional requirements were national 
gastroenterological physician groups which were divided in their 
enthusiasm for the proposal. The American Gastroenterological 
Association indicated that properly trained physician assistants, nurse 
practitioners and clinical nurse specialists are capable and qualified 
to perform screening flexible sigmoidoscopies. However, the Association 
insisted that in no case should such practitioners be permitted to do 
so without being directly supervised by an appropriately trained and 
qualified onsite physician. In addition, the Association urged that 
these non-physician providers should never be allowed to perform these 
examinations without some assurance that they have been properly 
educated and trained to perform them. These comments were echoed by 
several other physician groups. On the other hand, the American College 
of Gastroenterologists supported the proposal without specifically 
mentioning the need for physician supervision and education and 
experience requirements. The College emphasized that there is a great 
need for sigmoidoscopy screening to be performed in the Medicare age 
group. Moreover, they observed that there may not be sufficient numbers 
of physicians available to perform the procedure, posing an access 
problem for our beneficiaries. The College stated that, if we proceed 
with the proposal, non-physician practitioners should be required to 
provide certain specific information to beneficiaries stating who had 
performed the examination and its impact on available benefits in 
future years.
    Another organization representing family physicians also noted 
conditions which should be met if these practitioners provide this 
service as proposed, but indicated that the existing Medicare 
regulations for these practitioners suggested that these conditions are 
met. For example, existing Medicare regulations require general (not 
onsite) rather than direct (onsite) supervision of PAs. Several other 
physician organizations in their recommendations also appear to support 
a requirement less strict than direct physician supervision.
    One other commenter--a national medical association--opposed the 
proposal because of concerns as to whether non-physician health care 
professionals could respond appropriately to problems or complications 
that might possibly occur during the performance of the screening 
procedure when a physician (with a higher level of medical skills) is 
not present at the facility. None of the commenters who suggested 
revisions to the proposed rule to specify requirements for physician 
supervision and/or formal training and experience, or who opposed it, 
produced scientific evidence in support of their views.
    Response: As we indicated in the proposed rule, a growing body of 
evidence from the medical literature has shown that certain properly 
trained non-physician health care professionals can carry out screening 
by flexible sigmoidoscopy as accurately and safely as physicians. 
(Scheon et al. Archives of Internal Medicine 2000) This procedure 
requires fewer supervised examinations to attain objective measures of 
technical competency than other endoscopic procedures, does not require 
sedation, and has a low rate of related complications. In the studies 
reviewed, physician and non-physician endoscopists achieved similar 
polyp detection rates and depth of insertion in screening performed 
independently. No significant complications from sigmoidoscopy were 
reported in any of these studies. The level of satisfaction with the 
procedure was similar for all practitioners.
    This demonstration of the ability of non-physician practitioners to 
perform flexible sigmoidoscopy screening safely and accurately is a 
very significant development. As the American College of 
Gastroenterology noted in its comments, there is a physician 
availability and a related beneficiary access problem of concern to 
CMS. The Balanced Budget Act of 1997, effective January 1, 1998, 
expanded Medicare coverage of non-physician practitioner services to 
address concerns about access to services, especially in rural and 
other areas of the United States where there is a lack of availability 
of physicians for performing certain services such as screening 
flexible sigmoidoscopies. The law and related regulations also outline 
the level of supervision or medical direction for these non-physician 
practitioners.
    Flexible sigmoidoscopy is one of the promising modalities available 
for decreasing mortality from colorectal cancer. The American Cancer 
Society estimates that more than 56,000 Americans will die of 
colorectal cancer this year. Studies have found that the use of 
screening flexible sigmoidoscopy could lead to a 30 percent reduction 
in total colorectal cancer mortality. (Selby et al. New England Journal 
of Medicine 1992.) In view of limited Medicare beneficiary access in 
certain areas, because screening flexible sigmoidoscopy remains an 
underused cancer-prevention procedure, and, in the absence of any 
submitted scientific literature that contradicts the underlying medical 
evidence supporting the proposal, we do not believe that commenters 
have presented us with a basis for revising the proposal as they have 
suggested. However, we have found that a number of commenters have 
offered us interesting suggestions for implementing the proposal and 
clarifying the agency's intent in this

[[Page 55266]]

regard, which we explain in our response to the more specific comments 
summarized below.
    Comment: Several commenters referenced a recent OIG report entitled 
``Medicare Coverage of Non-Physician Practitioner Services'' (OEI-02-
00-00290), which they believe makes clear that CMS does not have 
systems in place to ensure that non-physician practitioners who provide 
beneficiaries with medical services and who bill Medicare directly, are 
performing their services in accordance with State law. One commenter 
states that the report implies that it is not possible for Medicare to 
ensure that a State law allows non-physician practitioners to provide 
flexible sigmoidoscopies or that the services are provided in an 
integrated practice arrangement with appropriate physician supervision. 
For example, the commenter pointed out that 16 carrier medical 
directors interviewed by the OIG reported that they do not verify that 
non-physician practitioners are performing services within their State 
scope of practice, and at least 22 carriers do not check the 
collaborative agreement required for nurse practitioners and clinical 
nurse specialists. The commenter indicated that the OIG concluded that 
services performed and billed by non-physician practitioners create 
potential payment and quality of care vulnerabilities since, (1) ``non-
physician practitioner billings are rising rapidly, but controls, which 
are based on scopes of practice, are limited'', and (2) carriers ``do 
not have sufficient guidance to distinguish which non-physician 
practitioner services should be reimbursed by the program and which 
should not.'' In light of these OIG findings, the commenter urges CMS 
to review whether and how the agency and its carriers can ensure that 
the above-mentioned concerns are resolved successfully when non-
physician practitioners perform screening flexible sigmoidoscopies. The 
commenter says that ``it is vital that CMS takes steps to ensure the 
fulfillment of these requirements to minimize any risk of experiencing 
the vulnerabilities referenced in the OIG report with respect to 
quality and payment issues.''
    Response: We agree with OIG's conclusion identifying program 
vulnerabilities when non-physician practitioners bill Medicare directly 
for their services. We also respect beneficiaries' choices and their 
need for access to medical services. While appreciative of OIG's 
suggestion that it may be appropriate to consider additional controls 
for Medicare payments to non-physician practitioners, we are sensitive 
to issues that might arise from different treatment of different 
classes of practitioners. As appropriate, we will monitor non-physician 
practitioner services for both overall trends and for complex services.
    Medicare currently defers to State licensing boards for regulating 
and enforcing scope of practice laws. Before issuing a Medicare billing 
number to a nurse practitioner or a nurse clinical specialist, 
contractors first determine whether the applicant has a valid license 
within the State. If a licensing board subsequently acts to suspend a 
practitioner's license to practice, then Medicare suspends payments 
under the practitioner's Medicare billing number. This practice is the 
same for physician and non-physician practitioners.
    To protect the integrity of the Medicare program, all claims 
submitted are subject to data analysis that may lead to a focused or a 
random review by a Medicare contractor. If Medicare is to begin 
monitoring practitioners for compliance with State laws and 
regulations, the program will have to develop additional regulations 
and policies and impose additional workloads on contractors and perhaps 
for all practitioners as well. In deciding whether such a process is 
necessary and appropriate, we will carefully consider these comments in 
this regard.
    Comment: One commenter asked CMS, in implementing the proposal, to 
ensure that non-physician practitioners are required to tender a 
standard notification to Medicare beneficiaries providing them with a 
clear statement that the screening flexible sigmoidoscopy is being 
furnished by a non-physician practitioner. In addition, the commenter 
suggests that the beneficiary be notified that under the new colorectal 
cancer screening benefit, effective July 1, 2001, any average-risk 
individual receiving a covered screening flexible sigmoidoscopy will be 
precluded by law from receiving Medicare payment for a screening 
colonoscopy (which under Medicare regulations (Sec. 410.37(f) must be 
furnished by a physician)) for four years.
    Response: We believe that our Medicare beneficiaries generally are 
knowledgeable about the identity of the Medicare practitioner that is 
furnishing them with a flexible sigmoidoscopy screening examination. 
Accordingly, we believe that there is no need for non-physician 
practitioners to provide beneficiaries with any formal notification 
statement in this regard. As for the suggestion that a non-physician 
practitioner should notify an average-risk beneficiary that providing 
him/her with a screening flexible sigmoidoscopy will preclude Medicare 
from paying for a screening colonoscopy (which must be performed by a 
physician) for four years, we believe that all Medicare practitioners 
should help to inform beneficiaries with respect to this limitation. 
However, we do not believe that any practitioner should be required to 
formally notify beneficiaries to this effect. While we believe that our 
Medicare contractors, and all our practitioners have an important role 
to play in educating our beneficiaries about the various conditions of 
coverage and payment limitations that apply to different colorectal 
cancer screening options that are available to them, we will not use 
these regulations as a mechanism for implementing the requested 
educational efforts.
    Comment: One commenter suggested that we allow registered nurses to 
perform these as well, as a delegated act, under a physician's 
direction with the physician billing Medicare for the procedure.
    Response: The regulation proposal to allow nurse practitioners, 
physician assistants, and clinical nurse specialists to perform 
screening flexible sigmoidoscopies for Medicare purposes was designed 
to increase beneficiary access to these screening services, especially 
in rural and other areas where there is a shortage or a lack of 
availability of physicians who are trained and qualified to perform 
these examinations. These non-physician practitioners are typically 
licensed independent practitioners who are recognized under the 
Medicare law and regulations for coverage and payment purposes. Under 
Medicare, these non-physician practitioners may be paid under the 
physician fee schedule for their tests (and treatments) that would be 
physicians' services if furnished by a physician when they are 
authorized by the State to perform such services. Registered nurses are 
not licensed independent practitioners who are recognized under 
Medicare law for coverage and payment purposes.
    Comment: One commenter suggested that we should monitor beneficiary 
health outcomes that result from the performance of sigmoidoscopy 
examinations by non-physician practitioners to ensure that they are 
done safely and accurately.
    Response: We had not planned to monitor beneficiary outcomes that 
might be related to implementation of the proposal to allow non-
physician practitioners to perform flexible sigmoidoscopy screening 
because of the available evidence that they can provide these services 
safely and effectively. If we were to consider doing this,

[[Page 55267]]

however, we would probably want to consider doing a comparative study 
of health outcomes of beneficiaries who have been screened by both 
physician and non-physician practitioners who have performed these 
examinations.
    Such a study would mean that a number of physician and non-
physician practitioners would have to collect and report data to us on 
their Medicare patients for a certain period of time, which could be 
burdensome for them. We may be interested in doing a study in this area 
in the future if we had any credible evidence of a serious problem in 
this area, but, at this time, we do not believe a study is necessary.

Result of Evaluation of Comments

    We are adopting our proposal to allow certain non-physician 
practitioners to perform screening flexible sigmoidoscopies.

C. Services and Supplies Incident to a Physician's Professional 
Services: Conditions

    Section 1861(s)(2)(A) of the Act authorizes coverage of services 
and supplies (including drugs and biologicals that are not usually 
self-administered by the patient) furnished incident to a physician's 
service. These drugs and biologicals are commonly furnished in 
physicians' offices without charge or included in the physicians' 
bills. This statutory ``incident to'' benefit differs from the 
``incident to'' benefit in the hospital setting as set forth in section 
1861(s)(2)(B) of the Act, which authorizes coverage of hospital 
services (including drugs and biologicals which are not usually self-
administered by the patient) incident to a physician's service 
furnished to outpatients and partial hospitalization services furnished 
to outpatients incident to a physician's service. This provision only 
addresses coverage of ``incident to'' services under section 
1861(s)(2)(A) of the Act. In addition, the statute provides Medicare 
coverage of services incident to practitioners other than physicians.
    The Medicare Carriers Manual currently requires that the physician 
(or other practitioner) be either the employer of the auxiliary 
personnel or be an employee of the same entity that employs the 
auxiliary personnel. In the August 2, 2001 rule, we proposed to revise 
Sec. 410.26 to codify our existing policy outlined in section 2050 of 
the manual. Specifically, we proposed to codify the definitions of 
auxiliary personnel, direct supervision, independent contractor, leased 
employment, non-institutional setting, practitioner, and services and 
supplies for purposes of services provided incident to a physician's 
service.
    In addition, we proposed to allow auxiliary personnel to provide 
services incident to the services of physicians (or other 
practitioners) who supervise them, regardless of the employment 
relationship of the physician (or other practitioner) to the entity 
that employed the auxiliary personnel.
    All commenters supported the proposal. Their specific comments are 
addressed below.
    Comment: Commenters noted three errors in the proposed text of the 
regulation. First, in the definition of auxiliary personnel set forth 
in Sec. 410.26(a)(1), after the phrase ``under the supervision of a 
physician,'' the term ``(or other practitioner)'' was omitted. Second, 
in the definition of services and supplies set forth in 
Sec. 410.26(a)(7), the phrase ``(including drugs and biologicals that, 
as determined in accordance with regulations, cannot be self-
administered)'' should be changed to ``(including drugs and biologicals 
which are not usually self-administered by the patient)'' in accordance 
with section 112 of the BIPA, which amended sections 1861(s)(2)(A) and 
(B) of the Act. Third, in the supervision requirement set forth in 
Sec. 410.26(b)(5), the word ``direct'' was omitted.
    Response: We agree with these comments, and we have corrected these 
errors.
    Comment: One commenter requested that independent contractor 
physicians also be recognized as employees under the reassignment 
policy set forth in section 3060 of the Medicare Carrier Manual.
    Response: As stated in the August 2, 2001 rule, this proposal only 
applies to the incident to policy. Furthermore, we are not defining or 
re-defining the term employment. Instead, we proposed to permit 
physicians (or other practitioners) to directly supervise auxiliary 
personnel regardless of the employment relationship of the physicians 
(or other practitioners) with the entity that hired the auxiliary 
personnel. In order to bill and receive payment from Medicare under 
this policy, all other applicable requirements must also be met. For 
example, the service must be medically reasonable and necessary, and 
appropriate reassignment must be executed.
    Comment: One commenter suggested using in Sec. 410.26(b) all of the 
terms defined in Sec. 410.26(a) or deleting the terms not used in 
Sec. 410.26(b).
    Response: We found one term--leased employment--that was not used 
in Sec. 410.26(b). However, we will not eliminate this term because it 
is used to define the term auxiliary personnel.
    Comment: Several commenters requested that we clarify and 
distinguish between the physician (or other practitioner) ordering the 
incident to service and the physician (or other practitioner) 
supervising the auxiliary personnel who perform the incident to 
service. They stated that confusion exists as to whose Medicare Part B 
billing number should be used on the claim form.
    Response: Inherent in the definition of an incident to service is 
the requirement that the incident to service be furnished incident to a 
professional service of a physician (or other practitioner). When a 
claim is submitted to Medicare under the billing number of a physician 
(or other practitioner) for an incident to service, the physician is 
stating that he or she either performed the service or directly 
supervised the auxiliary personnel performing the service. Accordingly, 
the Medicare billing number of the ordering physician (or other 
practitioner) should not be used if that person did not directly 
supervise the auxiliary personnel. We added language to the supervision 
requirement set forth in Sec. 410.26(b)(5) to reflect this 
clarification.
    Comment: One commenter pointed out that the claim form currently 
requires the physician (or other practitioner) to certify that he or 
she personally supervised the employee. Therefore, the commenter 
requested that we update the claim form to reflect the proposed 
regulations.
    Response: We plan to update not only the claim form but also 
section 2050 of the Medicare Carriers Manual to reflect the new 
regulations.
    Comment: A few commenters noted that the individual does not always 
receive an IRS-1099 form under an independent contractor arrangement. 
Instead, when a clinic, for example, contracts with an entity that has 
hired individuals to be furnished to the clinic, then the entity (and 
not the individual) receives the IRS-1099 form.
    Response: We agree with these commenters. Therefore, we have added 
language to the definition of an independent contractor set forth in 
Sec. 410.26(a)(3) to reflect this practice. However, we again emphasize 
that the applicable reassignment rules must also be met and that this 
incident to policy does not in any way alter the current requirements 
for valid reassignment.
    Comment: One commenter encouraged us to specify in the regulations 
the acceptability of forms (other than the IRS W-2 form) that the 
Internal Revenue Service recognizes as

[[Page 55268]]

proof of employment, such as the Payroll Agent arrangement where IRS 
forms 2678 and 1997C are used instead.
    Response: Under our proposal, the employment relationship is 
irrelevant to whether a physician (or other practitioner) can 
effectively furnish direct supervision of the auxiliary staff. 
Therefore, we decline to include language that may define or re-define 
the term employment.
    Comment: One commenter suggested that we also include Ambulatory 
Surgical Centers (ASCs) and Community Mental Health Clinics (CMHCs) in 
the definition of a non-institutional setting because Medicare Part B 
payments for services provided in these settings are paid through the 
facility relative value units (RVUs) rather than the non-facility RVUs.
    Response: The definition of a non-institutional setting is not 
derived from the definition of a facility used to determine the site of 
service and the application of the facility or non-facility RVUs. 
Because section 1861(s)(2)(B) of the Act authorizes payment for 
hospital incident to services, section 1861(s)(2)(A) of the Act cannot 
authorize payment for hospital incident to services. This provision is 
reiterated in Sec. 411.15(m)(2). Similarly, Sec. 411.15(p)(2)(ii) 
specifically excludes payment for incident to services in skilled 
nursing facilities (SNFs). Consequently, we defined non-institutional 
settings as all settings except hospitals and SNFs, and we do not plan 
to define ASCs and CMHCs as institutional settings.
    Comment: Many commenters wanted us to restrict the definition of 
auxiliary personnel so that only certain individuals may perform a 
given incident to service. For example, they want us to mandate that 
only audiologists may perform cochlear implant rehabilitation services 
as incident to services. Likewise, they want us to permit only physical 
or occupational therapists to perform physical or occupational therapy 
as incident to services. In support, they noted that section 4541(b) of 
the BBA amended section 1862(a)(20) of the Act and required that 
physical or occupational therapy furnished as an incident to service 
meet the same requirements outlined in the physical or occupational 
therapy benefit set forth in sections 1861(g) and (p) of the Act.
    Response: We have not further clarified who may serve as auxiliary 
personnel for a particular incident to service because the scope of 
practice of the auxiliary personnel and the supervising physician (or 
other practitioner) is determined by State law. We deliberately used 
the term any individual so that the physician (or other practitioner), 
under his or her discretion and license, may use the service of anyone 
ranging from another physician to a medical assistant. In addition, it 
is impossible to exhaustively list all incident to services and those 
specific auxiliary personnel who may perform each service.
    Comment: Many commenters wanted us to re-emphasize that incident to 
services set forth in section 1861(s)(2)(A) of the Act do not include 
Medicare benefits separately and independently listed in the Act, such 
as diagnostic services set forth in section 1861(s)(3). Some even 
requested that we not permit these separately and independently listed 
services to be rendered as incident to services.
    Response: We realize, as did the Congress with the enactment of 
section 4541(b) of the BBA, that many services--even those that are 
separately and independently listed--can be furnished as incident to 
services. However, this fact of medical practice is not inconsistent 
with our policy. We maintain that a separately and independently listed 
service can be furnished as an incident to service but is not required 
to be furnished as an incident to service. Furthermore, even if a 
separately and independently listed service is provided as an incident 
to service, the specific requirements of that separately and 
independently listed service must be met. For instance, a diagnostic 
test under section 1861(s)(3) may be furnished as an incident to 
service. Nevertheless, it must also meet the requirements of the 
diagnostic test benefit set forth in Sec. 410.32. Namely, the test must 
be ordered by the treating practitioner, and it must be supervised by a 
physician. Thus, if a test requires a higher level of physician 
supervision than direct supervision, then that higher level of 
supervision must exist even if the test is furnished as an incident to 
service. Accordingly, we decline to prohibit a separately and 
independently listed service from being rendered as an incident to 
service. Instead, we reiterate that a separately and independently 
listed service need not meet the requirements of an incident to 
service.
    Comment: Recognizing that this proposal affords flexibility in the 
way physicians (or other practitioners) are hired by an office or 
clinic, one commenter requested that non-physician practitioners be 
permitted to stand as locum tenens (taking the place of) for other non-
physician practitioners as well.
    Response: This proposed rule does not alter in any way the current 
locum tenens policy.

Result of Evaluation of Comments

    We are finalizing our proposed revisions to Sec. 410.26 with the 
corrections noted above.

D. Anesthesia Services

    We generally use the 1988 American Society of Anesthesiologists' 
(ASA) Relative Value Guide as the basis for the uniform relative value 
guide. This guide is used in all carrier localities to determine 
payment for anesthesia services furnished by physicians under Medicare 
Part B. We proposed using the ASA base unit values from the 1999 guide 
beginning in CY 2002 for eight codes with ASA base unit values that 
were different from CMS's values (specifically, CPT codes 00810; 00902; 
01150; 01214; 01432; 01440; 01770; and 01921). These are older codes 
and, while we accepted the ASA base unit value initially, the ASA has 
changed this base unit subsequently and no additional adjustment was 
made by us to the base unit. For CPT codes 00142 and 00147, we proposed 
maintaining the current base unit values although they differed from 
the ASA values because values for these two codes were established 
under the ``inherent reasonableness'' process in 1987.
    Comment: The ASA identified additional CPT codes 00548, 00700, 
00800, and 01916 with different base unit values in the most current 
ASA guide from our base unit values.
    Response: We are accepting the ASA's comments subject to the 
following clarification. In all, 12 codes were presented where the ASA 
base unit differs from our base unit. Of these, code 01921, which 
appeared on the list in the August 2, 2001 proposed rule, will be 
deleted in 2002. Since this code has been deleted and will no longer be 
used, we will not assign base units to it and, as a result, only 11 
codes will be considered.
    These additional four codes were added to CPT before CY 2000. New 
and revised codes starting in CY 2000 and for subsequent years are 
evaluated on a code-specific basis under our usual process after we 
receive recommendations from the RUC. Thus, because we review the RUC 
recommendations and may make changes based on them, there could be 
differences between the ASA guide and our base unit values beginning in 
2000. If the RUC or other commenters recommend and we agree to a base 
unit different from what ASA recommends, we will use that value and not 
the ASA

[[Page 55269]]

value, even though it may be published in the ASA's guide.

Result of Evaluation of Comments

    The complete list of 11 CPT codes for which we will assign the ASA 
base unit values instead of the current CMS base unit values are as 
follows:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                           Code                              CMS    ASA

00548.....................................................     15     17

01770.....................................................      8      6
01916.....................................................      5      6
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A related issue is the treatment of base unit values for new codes 
for 2002 as discussed in section V. The RUC reviewed the work values 
for 19 new anesthesia codes for 2002. We agree with the RUC on 17 of 
these codes but recommend lower values for 2 codes. The RUC recommended 
9 units for CPT code 00797 (anesthesia for gastric restrictive 
procedure for morbid obesity) and we proposed 8 units. The RUC 
recommended 3 units for CPT code 01968 (cesarean delivery following 
neuraxial labor analgesia/anesthesia--list separately in addition to 
the code for primary procedure), and we proposed 2 units. (See section 
V for additional information on the valuing of these new anesthesia 
services.)

Result of Evaluation of Comments

    We are implementing the base units for the 11 existing codes where 
there are differences between the ASA's guide and our base units and 
for which we received comments. In addition, we are implementing the 
base units which the RUC recommended for 17 new codes and the base 
units which we recommended and which are lower than the RUC's 
recommendation for 2 new codes.

E. Performance Measurement and Emerging Technology Codes

    In the August 2, 2001 proposed rule (66 FR 40383) we included a 
discussion of the two new categories of CPT codes: Performance Measure 
codes, referred to as Category II CPT codes, which are intended to 
facilitate data collection; and, Emerging Technology codes, referred to 
as Category III CPT codes, which are intended to track new and emerging 
technologies.
    For the Performance Measure codes, which have a syntax of four 
digits followed by the letter ``F,'' we stated that no values would be 
placed on the Performance Measure codes and no additional payment would 
be made for the use of these codes. Practitioners would, however, be 
able to report them on their Medicare bills to enable us to track these 
services.
    For the Emerging Technology Codes, which have a syntax of four 
digits followed by the letter ``T,'' we stated that we would pay, on a 
case-by-case basis in specific situations, when we determine that the 
codes represent services that are not, in fact, experimental, but have 
been shown to be safe and effective. If the coverage policy is not 
consistent with the existing tracking codes, a Medicare-specific code 
may need to be developed to allow payment for the service. Thus, only 
specific emerging technology codes would be recognized for Medicare 
payment.
    Comment: Commenters expressed appreciation for our recognition of 
these new categories of CPT codes. However, one commenter believed that 
we should refrain from categorically denying payment for category III 
(emerging technology) CPT codes, because these CPT codes may sometimes 
warrant payment. Another commenter believed that we were proposing not 
to pay for these codes at all. The commenter recommended that we 
clarify in the final rule that carriers may determine if payment should 
be made for a particular emerging technology code.
    Response: We believe that these codes will serve a useful purpose. 
We regret that some commenters believed that the discussion in the 
proposed rule implied that these services should not be covered. We 
only intended to indicate that by publishing these codes we are not 
indicating that we would pay for these services in all instances. As 
the commenter indicates, coverage of emerging technologies and payment 
for these services is at the discretion of the carriers. We also want 
to clarify that our carriers will be able to incorporate these codes 
only after they are entered into our system during our regularly 
scheduled updates and not as soon as the AMA posts them on the CPT web 
site.

Result of Evaluation of Comments

    We would like to clarify the intent of our proposal regarding 
emerging technology CPT codes. The emerging technology CPT codes will 
be published in the physician fee schedule with a status indicator of 
``C'' to indicate that coverage and payment of these services is at the 
discretion of the carrier. The only exceptions will be for those 
emerging technology CPT codes that describe services for which Medicare 
has issued an NCD. In these situations, coverage will be based on the 
NCD, and we may establish national payment or may leave payment to the 
discretion of the carriers. It is also possible that an NCD or an 
established payment policy may foreclose coverage and/or payment for an 
emerging technology CPT code. In summary, we will finalize our proposal 
to allow both the CPT Performance Measure Codes (that is, codes with 
four digits followed by the letter ``F'') and Emerging Technology Codes 
(that is, codes with four digits followed by the letter ``T'') to be 
listed on Medicare bills and provide payment for the emerging 
technology codes as determined by the carrier.

F. Payment Policy for CPT Modifier 62 (Co-Surgery)

    The CPT modifier code 62 is used to report the work of co-surgeons. 
Currently, if we pay for co-surgery, we pay a total of 125 percent of 
the fee schedule amount to the co-surgeons who each receive half of 
this total payment. In the August 2, 2001 proposed rule (66 FR 40383), 
we stated that we would be examining our payment policies for co-
surgery to consider possible ways to ensure that they reflect current 
clinical practices and properly reflect the relative resources and work 
effort required to perform these services. We outlined several issues 
under consideration and specifically solicited information to assist us 
in deciding whether to make a future proposal affecting payments for 
co-surgery.

Result of Evaluation of Comments

    Commenters responded to the specific questions in the proposed 
rule. Many commenters believe that the current payment policy is 
reasonable and that the focus should be on education efforts to ensure 
the appropriate use of the modifier. We will review carefully the 
information the commenters have provided. If we determine that we need 
to proceed with a change in payment policy for co-surgery, the change 
would be proposed as part of future rulemaking.

III. Implementation of Medicare, Medicaid, and SCHIP Benefits 
Improvement and Protection Act of 2000

    The Medicare, Medicaid, and SCHIP Benefits Improvement and 
Protection Act of 2000 (BIPA) (Public Law 106-554), enacted on December 
21, 2000, provides for revisions to policies applicable to the 
physician fee

[[Page 55270]]

schedule. These revisions are presented below.

A. Screening Mammography

    Medicare has paid for screening mammography since January 1, 1991. 
Section 1834(c) of the Act governing these screenings did not include 
screening mammography under the physician fee schedule; it provided for 
payment under a separate statutory methodology. Section 104 of BIPA 
amends section 1848(j)(3) of the Act to include screening mammography 
as a physician's service for which payment is made under the physician 
fee schedule beginning January 1, 2002. In the August 2001 proposed 
rule, we proposed amending Secs. 405.534 and 405.535 to reflect the 
inclusion of screening mammography as a physician's service which will 
be payable under the physician fee schedule. In addition, we proposed 
amending Sec. 414.2 to include screening mammography under the 
definition for physicians' services. In accordance with part 414, 
payments for screening mammography will be resource-based and will have 
geographic adjustments that reflect cost differences among areas as do 
all other services under the physician fee schedule, including 
diagnostic mammography.
    The following is a summary of the RVUs proposed for the 
professional and technical components (PC and TC) of a screening 
mammography, CPT code 76092, under the physician fee schedule.
Professional Component
    A screening mammography service typically requires the same number 
of views as a unilateral diagnostic mammography. Therefore, for 
screening mammography, we proposed a physician work RVU of 0.70 based 
on the physician work established for a unilateral diagnostic 
mammography. This value is equal to the proposed work RVUs from the 5-
year review of physician work for CPT code 76090, unilateral diagnostic 
mammogram (see June 8, 2001 proposed notice, ``Five-Year Review of Work 
Relative Value Units Under the Physician Fee Schedule''). Since we 
believe that the practice expense and malpractice expense for the 
professional component of screening mammography is similar to the 
professional component of unilateral diagnostic mammography, we 
proposed establishing 0.25 practice expense RVUs and 0.03 malpractice 
RVUs for the PC of screening mammography.
Technical Component
    We proposed valuing the technical component of screening 
mammography using a methodology that updates the original statutory 
limit for the technical component of screening mammography of $37.40, 
by the cumulative increase in physician fee schedule rates between 1992 
and 2001 (see the August 2, 2001 proposed rule (66 FR 40384) for 
specific information on methodology). This resulted in proposed 
practice expense and malpractice RVUs for the technical component of 
screening mammography of 1.27 and 0.06, respectively.
    Overall, the total proposed RVUs associated with the combined PC 
and TC of CPT code 76092 were 2.31 (0.70 work RVUs, 1.52 practice 
expense RVUs, and 0.09 malpractice expense RVUs).
New Technology Mammography
    The BIPA also required us to determine whether the assignment of 
new HCPCS codes is appropriate for both screening and diagnostic 
mammography performed using new digital technologies.
    We determined that new HCPCS codes are appropriate for the new 
digital technology mammography beginning January 1, 2002. We proposed 
three separate codes for directly taking a digital image (one for 
screening and one each for unilateral and bilateral diagnostic). We 
also proposed a single add-on code for computer-aided diagnosis with 
conversion of standard film images to digital images, since, at the 
time of the development of the proposed rule, the FDA approved 
computer-aided diagnosis only for screening mammography. Following is a 
summary of our proposed coding and payment methodologies for digital 
mammography.

Screening Mammography, Direct Digital Image (Gxxx1)

    We proposed HCPCS code Gxxx1 to report screening mammography 
performed using direct digital images as opposed to mammography that is 
performed using the standard film images associated with CPT code 
76092, or conversion of a standard film image to a digital image. For 
the PC of HCPCS code Gxxx1, we proposed 0.70 work RVUs, 0.28 practice 
expense RVUs, and 0.03 malpractice expense RVUs. For the TC of HCPCS 
code Gxxx1, for which there is no physician work associated, we 
proposed 2.50 practice expense RVUs and 0.06 malpractice RVUs.

Diagnostic Mammography, Unilateral, Direct Digital Image (Gxxx2)

    We proposed HCPCS code Gxxx2 to report unilateral diagnostic 
mammography performed using direct digital images as opposed to 
mammography performed using the standard film images associated with 
CPT code 76090, or conversion of a standard film image to a digital 
image.
    For the professional component of HCPCS code Gxxx2, we proposed 
0.70 work RVUs, 0.28 practice expense RVUs, and 0.03 malpractice 
expense RVUs. For the TC of HCPCS code Gxxx2, with which there is no 
physician work associated, we proposed 1.99 practice expense RVUs and 
0.05 malpractice expense RVUs.

Diagnostic Mammography, Bilateral, Direct Digital Image (Gxxx3)

    We proposed HCPCS code Gxxx3 to report bilateral diagnostic 
mammography that is performed using direct digital images as opposed to 
mammography performed using the standard film images associated with 
CPT code 76091, or conversion of a standard film image to a digital 
image.
    For the PC of HCPCS code Gxxx3, we proposed 0.87 work RVUs, 0.34 
practice expense RVUs, and 0.03 malpractice expense RVUs. For the TC of 
HCPCS code Gxxx3, with which there is no physician work associated, we 
proposed 2.47 practice expense RVUs and 0.06 malpractice expense RVUs.

Computer-Aided Detection, With Either Direct Digital Image or 
Conversion of Standard Film Images to Digital Images (HCPCS Code Gxxx4)

    We proposed HCPCS code Gxxx4 to report conversion of standard film 
images to digital images when used in conjunction with computer-aided 
diagnosis software. This code was proposed as an add-on code that can 
be billed only in conjunction with the primary service, CPT code 76092, 
based on our understanding that the only FDA-approved use of the 
computer-aided diagnosis mammography software is with screening film 
images. If there are other FDA-approved uses of computer-aided 
diagnosis, we stated we would allow for use of Gxxx4 as an add-on to 
other mammography services.
    For the PC of code Gxxx4, we proposed 0.06 work RVUs, 0.02 practice 
expense RVUs, and 0.01 malpractice expense RVUs. For the TC of HCPCS 
code Gxxx4, with which there is no physician work associated, we 
proposed 0.41 practice expense RVUs and 0.01 malpractice expense RVUs.
    Since publication of the proposed rule, the FDA has also approved 
the use

of computer-aided diagnosis with diagnostic mammography.
    Comment: The majority of comments received from manufacturers, 
specialty organizations, individuals, and representatives of the 
Congress were supportive of our proposed payment of mammography 
services beginning January 1, 2002. The general consensus from 
commenters was that the proposed 21 and 26 percent increase, 
respectively, in payments for unilateral and bilateral diagnostic 
mammography, as a result of the 5-year review of work (see section IV), 
the new resource-based payment for screening mammography, the new 
resource-based payments for both digital screening and digital 
diagnostic mammography, and the payments for computer-aided diagnosis 
reflect the relative resources associated with each individual service.
    However, two commenters still believe that the 21 percent and 26 
percent increase in payments for unilateral and bilateral diagnostic 
mammography, respectively, was still inadequate to cover the costs of 
these services.
    Response: In agreement with the majority of comments received, we 
continue to believe that our proposed relative values are an accurate 
reflection of the resources associated with the provision of these 
services.
    Comment: We received comments that suggested that Medicare payment 
is inadequate to cover the cost of screening mammography. One commenter 
stated that, due to the Federally-mandated Mammography Quality 
Standards Act (MQSA) requirements intrinsic to mammography (both 
screening and diagnostic), it is difficult to use the current 
methodology to account for all practice expenses. This commenter did 
indicate support for our proposal to develop practice expense RVUs for 
screening mammography using a comparison to unilateral diagnostic 
mammography.
    Response: We are currently using the ``no work'' methodology to 
price the technical component of diagnostic mammography and a special 
method for the technical component of screening mammography. We believe 
that most costs associated with mammography services are likely to be 
associated with the technical component. At this time, we plan to 
continue using these methods to establish the practice expense relative 
value units for the technical component of mammography services. 
However, if we propose a change to the methodology for no-work services 
in the future, we agree that it is important to consider whether MQSA 
costs are incorporated in the data sources we are using to develop 
RVUs.
    Comment: We received two comments that suggested Medicare should 
not pay for screening mammography using the physician fee schedule 
until payment is set at an appropriate level so as not to require 
reduction in payments for other services. The commenters were concerned 
about the reduction in payment for other services that would result 
from the increase in payment for screening mammography using the 
methodology we proposed. These commenters acknowledged that the statute 
requires us to pay for screening mammography using the physician fee 
schedule. One commenter appreciated the significant effort that CMS put 
forth to comply with the mandate.
    Response: As indicated by the comments, section 104(a) of the BIPA 
requires us to pay for screening mammography using the Medicare 
physician fee schedule beginning January 1, 2002. We estimate that 
payment in 2002 for screening mammography under the statutory 
methodology would have been about $71, which is less than the $81 that 
Medicare will pay under the physician fee schedule. Since screening 
mammography is paid under the physician fee schedule, the increase in 
payment will be subject to the budget neutrality calculations under 
section 1848(c) of the Act. The increase in payment, although large, 
will have little effect on payment for other physician fee schedule 
services. The required adjustment to other physician fee schedule 
payments is less than -0.1 percent.
    Comment: We received comments about coding for new technology 
screening mammograms. These comments indicated support for our proposed 
coding but noted that two developments have since occurred that we 
could not have taken into account in our proposed rule. First, CPT 
created a new code for computer-aided detection (CAD) as an add-on for 
screening mammography. Second, the Food and Drug Administration 
approved use of CAD for diagnostic mammography. The commenters 
requested that we use the CPT code for CAD as an add-on to screening 
mammography and create a slightly modified HCPCS alphanumeric code as 
an add-on for diagnostic mammography. The modification would specify 
that the alphanumeric code is to be used as an add-on for diagnostic 
mammography. Commenters also suggested that we accommodate potential 
future FDA approved uses of CAD as an add-on to digital mammography 
through necessary coding and payment changes as soon as possible 
without having to await the next rulemaking cycle.
    Response: We agree with the comments about coding of CAD. Medicare 
will recognize CPT code 76085 for CAD as an add-on to screening 
mammography and procedure code G0236 as an add-on to diagnostic 
mammography. The code descriptors make clear that the CPT code is for 
use as an add-on to screening mammography and the alphanumeric code is 
an add-on to diagnostic mammography. Payment for the revised codes 
follows the proposed rule approach for physician work, practice expense 
and malpractice for all mammography services. There may be slight 
changes to the RVUs for practice expenses as a result of updated 
information included in this final rule that affect all physician fee 
schedule services.
    In response to the comment about potential future FDA approved uses 
of CAD as add-on to digital mammography, it is possible that additional 
coding changes will be necessary or that editorial revisions to 
existing codes will allow for CAD to be paid as an add-on for digital 
mammography. We would like to coordinate our efforts with those of the 
CPT to minimize the need for alphanumeric codes and additional CPT 
codes.
    Comment: One commenter expressed concern about the payment 
associated with the Outpatient Prospective Payment System for all forms 
of mammography.
    Response: Any issues related to the Outpatient Prospective Payment 
System are outside the scope of this regulation and will be addressed 
by a separate regulation.
    Comment: One commenter asked for clarification on Federally 
Qualified Health Centers (FQHC) reimbursement for screening mammography 
and other new services.
    Response: Any issues related to FQHC reimbursement are outside the 
scope of this regulation.
    Comment: One commenter expressed concern that CMS did not work more 
closely with the CPT codes in the establishment of coding for digital 
mammography.
    Response: Whenever possible, CMS works with the American Medical 
Association's CPT Editorial Panel to establish coding for new 
technologies. The AMA CPT Editorial Panel has not established codes for 
digital mammography; therefore, CMS proactively established temporary 
G-codes for the digital mammography and

[[Page 55272]]

computer-aided detection for diagnostic mammograms.
    Comment: One commenter indicated that the malpractice expense for 
screening mammography should be higher than the unilateral diagnostic 
value of 0.03 since most mammography malpractice claims arise from 
allegations of cancers not detected or inappropriate follow-up of 
screening mammograms, not diagnostic studies. In addition, the 
screening mammography malpractice apportionment should be reversed for 
the PC and TC portions as the malpractice expense and risk is primarily 
with the interpreter of the screening mammogram, not the facility 
producing the technical component.
    Response: We will consider the malpractice RVUs for these services 
interim for 2002 and will examine this issue with respect to the 
methodology used to establish malpractice RVUs.

Result of Evaluation of Comments

    We will finalize our proposed relative values, because we believe 
they are an accurate reflection of the cost associated with the 
provision of these services. Additionally, we will also establish a 
temporary G-code (G0236) for the recent FDA approval of computer-aided 
detection used in conjunction with diagnostic mammography.

B. Screening Pelvic Examinations

    Section 101 of the BIPA amends section 1861(nn)(2) of the Act 
(effective July 1, 2001) to provide that a woman who does not qualify 
for annual coverage of a screening pelvic examination under one of the 
statutory exceptions, qualifies for coverage of a screening pelvic 
examination (including a clinical breast examination) once every 2 
years rather than once every 3 years.
    In the August 2, 2001 proposed rule, we made conforming changes to 
Sec. 410.56 (Screening Pelvic Examinations) of the regulations to 
reflect this statutory provision that has been implemented through 
sections 4603, 3628.1 and 4731 of the Medicare Carrier Manual, the 
Medicare Intermediary Manual, and the Medicare Hospital Manual, 
respectively.We received only one specific comment on the new screening 
pelvic examination proposal. That comment supported our proposed rule 
and recognized that the regulations are consistent with the Medicare 
law.

Result of Evaluation of Comments

    We are adopting our proposal to conform the regulations to the law 
to provide coverage for biennial screening pelvic examination for women 
not at high risk for cervical or vaginal cancer, effective July 1, 
2001.

C. Screening for Glaucoma

    Section 102 of the BIPA provides for Medicare coverage under Part B 
for screening for glaucoma for individuals with diabetes, a family 
history of glaucoma, or others determined to be at ``high risk'' for 
glaucoma effective for services furnished on or after January 1, 2002. 
The statute provides for coverage of glaucoma screening, including (1) 
a dilated eye examination with an intraocular pressure measurement, and 
(2) a direct ophthalmoscopy or a slit-lamp biomicroscopic examination, 
subject to certain frequency and other limitations.
    In the August 2, 2001 rule, we proposed a new Sec. 410.23 
(Screening for Glaucoma: Conditions for and Limitations on Coverage), 
to provide for coverage of the various types of glaucoma screening 
examinations specified in the statute. As provided in the statute, this 
new coverage allows payment for one glaucoma screening examination 
every year. To implement the statutory provisions, we proposed 
definitions for the following terms--screening for glaucoma, eligible 
beneficiaries, and direct supervision.
    In keeping with the language of section 102(b) of the BIPA we 
proposed defining the term ``screening for glaucoma'' to mean a dilated 
eye examination with an intraocular pressure measurement and a direct 
ophthalmoscopy or a slit-lamp biomicroscopic examination for the

[[Page 55273]]

early detection of glaucoma. This section also provides that the 
screening examinations that are to be covered under Medicare are to be 
furnished by or under the direct supervision of an optometrist or 
ophthalmologist who is legally authorized to furnish these services 
under State law (or the State regulatory mechanism provided by State 
law) of the State in which the services are furnished. These are 
services that would otherwise be covered if furnished by a physician or 
as incident to a physician's professional service. We also proposed 
incorporating this language in Sec. 410.23.
    We used the term ``eligible beneficiaries'' to indicate who may 
qualify for the new screening glaucoma benefit, and we proposed 
defining that term to include--individuals with diabetes mellitus, 
individuals with a family history of glaucoma, and African-Americans 
age 50 and over. As explained in the August 2 proposed rule, based on 
our review of the medical literature, and consultation with staff of 
the National Eye Institute and representatives of the American Academy 
of Ophthalmology and the American Optometric Association, we 
interpreted the statutory language, ``individuals determined to be at 
high risk for glaucoma'' to include Medicare beneficiaries who are 
African-Americans age 50 and over.
    We felt that the medical evidence available at this time was only 
sufficient to support inclusion of African-Americans age 50 and over in 
the statutory ``high risk'' category, in addition to individuals with 
diabetes and those with a family history of glaucoma who are covered 
separately under the new screening benefit. However, we specifically 
solicited public comment on the appropriateness of including other 
individuals in the statutory definition of ``high risk'' for glaucoma, 
with supporting documentation from medical literature.
    Section 102(b) of the BIPA provides that the glaucoma screening 
examination is to be furnished by or under the direct supervision of an 
ophthalmologist or optometrist who is legally authorized to furnish 
such services under State law or regulation in which the services are 
furnished. We proposed defining the term ``direct supervision'' as that 
term is defined in Sec. 410.32(b)(3)(ii) for purposes of the oversight 
of covered diagnostic laboratory services as they are performed in the 
office setting. Specifically, for purposes of screening glaucoma we 
proposed defining the term ``direct supervision'' to mean that the 
ophthalmologist or optometrist must be present in the office suite and 
immediately available to furnish assistance and direction throughout 
the performance of the procedure. The definition states that the term 
``direct supervision'' does not mean the physician must be present in 
the room when the procedure is performed.
    We also proposed conforming changes to specify an exception to the 
list of examples of routine physical checkups excluded from coverage in 
Secs. 411.15(a)(1) and 411.15(k)(9) for glaucoma screening examinations 
that meet the frequency limitation and the conditions for coverage that 
we are specifying under new Sec. 410.23.
    We received six comments that generally supported the proposal to 
implement section 102 of BIPA that provides for Medicare coverage of 
screening for glaucoma. Four of these comments were submitted by 
national medical associations, one was submitted by a pharmaceutical 
company, and another was provided by a consulting group. Only one 
commenter had a suggestion for revising the specific coverage 
provisions of the proposal.
    Comment: One commenter responded to our invitation to the public in 
the proposed rule to submit comments on the question of whether it 
might be appropriate to include other individuals (and not just 
African-Americans over age 50) in the statutory definition of those at 
``high risk'' for glaucoma. First, the commenter cites an article from 
the medical literature that notes that ``one of the clearest factors 
relating to increased glaucoma prevalence is age.'' (Gilchrist. 
Ophthalmic Physiol Opt 2000) Second, the commenter refers to other eye 
experts in the research of the epidemiology of glaucoma who have 
suggested that ``the appropriate age at which screening might be most 
effective is 6 to 10 years younger among those of African descent 
because of the earlier onset of disease.'' (Quigley and Vitale. Invest 
Ophthalmol Vis Sci 1997) Third, the commenter states that the latter 
conclusion is supported by data showing that in African-Americans who 
eventually develop glaucoma, the disease is present in 25 percent by 
age 54, 50 percent by age 65, and 75 percent by age 75. The commenter 
cites from the same Quigley article that comparable ages for these 
percentages of disease development in non-African-Americans are 64, 72, 
and 81 years, respectively. Finally, the commenter concludes that this 
literature supports a policy that would provide the glaucoma screening 
benefit for non-African Americans at an age 6 to 10 years older than 
for African-Americans (for example, 50 years of age), or beginning at 
age 56 to 60 years of age.
    Response: We believe that the commenter has not interpreted the 
results of the Quigley and Vitale studies correctly. The article by 
Quigley and Vitale reported the results of a meta-analysis and 
statistical modeling to estimate the prevalence and incidence of 
glaucoma. In general, results from meta-analysis and remodeling are 
often limited by the quality and comparability of the original source 
data. In the proposed rule, we used data reported directly from the 
Baltimore Eye Study (Tielsch, et al. JAMA 1991) and the Beaver Dam Eye 
Study (Klein, et al. JAMA 1992), two of the largest published studies 
on glaucoma. These studies indicated that the prevalence of glaucoma in 
non-African-Americans starts to increase after the age of 65 to 70 
years, whereas the prevalence increases much earlier in African-
Americans. Our decision to include African-Americans in the statutory 
category of those at ``high risk'' for glaucoma was based on these 
studies and the increased prevalence of glaucoma in African-Americans.
    Although we have decided not to add new populations to the 
definition of high risk at this time, the comment does raise the issue 
of how we should revise the definition in the future, if there is 
evidence to do so. We have decided to revise the proposed language in 
Sec. 410.23(a)(2) so that it specifically refers to ``individuals in 
the following high risk categories'' to make it more consistent with 
the statute. This new structure for the regulation language will permit 
CMS to more easily add high risk groups to the glaucoma screening 
benefit through the rulemaking process should the evidence in the 
medical literature warrant it.

Payment for Glaucoma Screening

    We believe that services provided as part of glaucoma screening 
will often overlap with services a physician provides during a patient 
encounter for ophthalmological services without requiring any 
additional work or practice expense. Therefore, we proposed bundling 
payment for glaucoma screening when it is provided on the same day as 
an evaluation and management (E/M) service or when it is provided as 
part of any ophthalmology service. In instances when glaucoma screening 
is the only service provided or when it is provided as part of an 
otherwise non-covered service (for example, CPT code 99397, preventive 
services visit,) we proposed the following HCPCS codes and payments:

[[Page 55274]]

Gxxx5, Glaucoma Screening Furnished by a Physician for High Risk 
Patients.
    For physician work and for malpractice, we proposed work and 
malpractice RVUs of 0.45 and 0.02, respectively, by crosswalking these 
values from CPT code 99212. Gxxx6, Glaucoma Screening Furnished Under 
the Direct Supervision of a Physician for High Risk Patients.
    For physician work and for malpractice, we believe this new HCPCS 
code represents a level of work comparable to other E/M services 
performed ``incident to'' a physician's service and therefore proposed 
to crosswalk the work and malpractice RVUs from CPT code 99211 (E/M 
service that may not require the presence of a physician) which are 
0.17 and 0.01, respectively.
    For non-facility settings, we proposed the following practice 
expense inputs for both of the above HCPCS Codes-- clinical staff time-
certified ophthalmic medical technologist/certified ophthalmic 
technician/registered nurse: five minutes; equipment: screening lane; 
and supplies: ophthalmology visit supply package.
    Comment: We received a comment from the American Academy of 
Ophthalmology (AAO) agreeing with our decision to bundle glaucoma 
screening with other E/M services and with our decision to create two 
levels of glaucoma screening services based on whether or not the 
physician performed the evaluation. The AAO also agreed with our 
proposal regarding RVUs for glaucoma screening performed ``incident 
to'' but commented that the level of payment for glaucoma screening 
performed by a physician was too low. They believe that payment rate 
should be a blend between CPT codes 99202 (Office or other outpatient 
visit for evaluation and management of a new patient) and 99213 (Office 
or other outpatient visit for evaluation and management of an 
established patient). This is based on the expectation that some 
patients receiving the service will be ``new'' patients to the 
ophthalmologist while others will have previously seen the 
ophthalmologist and therefore be ``established'' patients.
    The AAO proposes that for 2002, payment be equivalent to CPT code 
99202 for both physician work and practice expense, that for 2003, 
payment be equivalent to a 4.4 percent/95.6 percent blend of CPT codes 
99202 and 99213 for both physician work and practice expense, that for 
2004, payment be equivalent to a blend of 4.5 percent/95.5 percent 
blend of CPT codes 99202/99213, and that for 2005 and thereafter, 
payment be equivalent to a blend of 4.6 percent/95.4 percent of CPT 
codes 99202/99213. The AAO believes that the amount of history, 
physical examination, and medical decision making required for glaucoma 
screening approximates the amount of history, physical examination and 
medical decision making required for CPT code 99202 at the time of the 
first glaucoma screening and approximates the amount of history, 
physical examination, and medical decision making required for 99213 at 
the time of subsequent glaucoma screenings.
    The American Optometric Association (AOA) echoed the AAO's comments 
concerning the crosswalk for physician work. They also noted that the 
practice expense inputs should be crosswalked to the intermediate 
ophthalmologic codes.
    Response: We are finalizing our proposal to assign 0.45 work RVUs 
and .02 malpractice RVUs to Gxxx5, glaucoma screening performed by a 
physician (now G0117). This service is a screening service and 
therefore cannot be easily compared to the key components of a level 
III evaluation and management service (CPT code 99213). We also believe 
that the vast majority of beneficiaries receiving this service will be 
patients who have been previously seen by the ophthalmologist 
performing the service and, therefore, CPT code 99202 would not be an 
appropriate crosswalk for this service. We believe the work required 
for this service is similar whether or not the patient is ``new'' or 
``established''. Patients undergoing a screening service have no chief 
complaint or history of present illness. To perform this service, the 
only historical information required is a determination as to whether 
the beneficiary meets the criteria in the law, (for example, is at high 
risk for glaucoma). Therefore, the requirements for taking a history 
are actually less than the requirements of CPT code 99212. 
Additionally, the physical examination requirements are specified in 
the statute and are similar to the requirements of CPT code 99212. 
Furthermore, the vast majority of patients undergoing screening will 
not have glaucoma, so the typical screening service will require 
routine medical decision making. For those few patients with glaucoma 
who will need to schedule a return visit, the medical decision making 
is straightforward. Therefore, the glaucoma screening requirements are 
similar to CPT code 99212. Our decision to assign 0.45 work RVUs to 
this service is also consistent with the time required to perform the 
service and places it in correct rank order with regard to other 
screening services payable under Medicare. We have decided to accept 
the recommendation of AOA on practice expense inputs and will crosswalk 
the inputs from CPT code 92012, brief ophthalmic exam performed on an 
established patient, rather than using the practice expense inputs from 
CPT codes 99202 and 99213 as suggested by AAO.
    Because we received no comments on the RVUs for the Gxxx6 code, 
Glaucoma Screening Furnished Under the Direct Supervision of a 
Physician for High Risk Patients (now G0118), we will implement this as 
proposed and will assign .17 work RVUs and .01 malpractice RVUs. For 
practice expense, we will also crosswalk this code to CPT 92012.
    Comment: Several commenters noted that medical technicians do not 
have the education or training to provide screening glaucoma services. 
One commenter noted that ophthalmic medical personnel (OMP) are not 
licensed by State regulatory agencies and are precluded from ordering 
medications, including eyedrops. The commenter states that, according 
to the Joint Commission on Allied Health Personnel in Ophthalmology and 
the Association of Technical Personnel in Ophthalmology, OMPs cannot be 
independent practitioners, cannot diagnose or treat eye disorders and 
cannot prescribe medications. Since a dilated eye exam requires 
medication, the OMP cannot perform the exam without the patient first 
being seen by an ophthalmologist or optometrist.
    Response: The regulation is drafted based on the statutory 
provision; however, it does not supersede any State laws or licensing 
requirements.

Result of Evaluation of Comments

    We are adopting our proposal to include only African-Americans age 
50 and over in the statutory category of those at ``high risk'' for 
glaucoma. We are revising the regulation in Sec. 410.23(a)(2) to read 
``Eligible beneficiary means individuals in the following high risk 
categories.'' This should allow CMS to more easily add high risk groups 
by rulemaking should the medical evidence warrant it.
    For G0117  Glaucoma Screening for High Risk Patients Furnished by 
an Optometrist or Ophthalmologist--we will assign 0.45 work RVUs, .02 
malpractice RVUs and we will crosswalk practice expense inputs from CPT 
code 92012.
    For G0118  Glaucoma Screening for High Risk Patients Furnished 
Under the Direct Supervision of an Optometrist or Ophthalmologist--we 
will assign .17 work RVUs and .01 malpractice RVUs.

[[Page 55275]]

For practice expense we will also crosswalk this code to CPT code 
92012.

D. Screening Colonoscopy

    Before the enactment of the BIPA, sections 1861(pp)(1)(C) and 
1834(d)(3)(E) of the Act authorized Medicare coverage of screening 
colonoscopies once every 2 years for individuals at high risk for 
colorectal cancer. Individuals not at high risk for colorectal cancer 
did not qualify for coverage of screening colonoscopies under the 
colorectal cancer screening benefit, but they did qualify for coverage 
of other colorectal cancer screening examinations specified in the 
statute. These other examinations that were covered for individuals not 
at high risk for colorectal cancer included screening fecal-occult 
blood tests, screening flexible sigmoidoscopies, and screening barium 
enema examinations at certain frequency intervals specified in the 
statute and the regulations at Sec. 410.37 (Colorectal cancer screening 
tests).
    Section 103 of the BIPA amended sections 1861(pp)(1)(C), 
1834(d)(2)(E)(ii), and 1834(d)(3)(F) of the Act to add coverage of 
screening colonoscopies once every 10 years for individuals not at high 
risk for colorectal cancer. However, in the case of an individual who 
is not at high risk for colorectal cancer, but who has had a screening 
flexible sigmoidoscopy within the last 4 years, the statute provides 
that payment may be made for a screening colonoscopy only after at 
least 47 months have passed following the month in which the last 
screening flexible sigmoidoscopy was performed. In addition, the 
statute provides that, in the case of an individual who is not at high 
risk for colorectal cancer but who does have a screening colonoscopy 
performed on or after July 1, 2001, payment may be made for a screening 
flexible sigmoidoscopy only after at least 119 months have passed 
following the month in which the last screening colonoscopy was 
performed.
    In view of the statutory changes, we are conforming Secs. 410.37(e) 
and 410.37(g) (related to limitations on coverage of screening 
colonoscopies and screening flexible sigmoidoscopies) to make them 
consistent with the new provisions of the statute that have been 
implemented through manual provisions of the Medicare Carriers Manual, 
the Medicare Intermediary Manual Part III, and the Medicare Hospital 
Manual in transmittal numbers 6097, 1824, and 7069, respectively, in 
February 2001.
Payment for Screening Colonoscopy
    Payment for screening colonoscopy will be made under HCPCS code 
G0121: colorectal screening; colonoscopy for an individual not meeting 
criteria for high risk. As with current code G0105, screening 
colonoscopy for an individual at high risk, payment will be made at the 
level for a diagnostic colonoscopy, CPT code 45378, because the work is 
the same whether a procedure is screening or diagnostic. As the statute 
requires that, for both individuals who are or are not at high risk, 
if, during the course of the screening colonoscopy, a lesion or growth 
is detected that results in a biopsy or removal of the growth, the 
appropriate diagnostic procedure classified as colonoscopy with biopsy 
or removal should be billed and paid rather than HCPCS code G0105 or 
G0121.
    We received four comments in support of the proposal to conform the 
regulations to the Medicare law implementing the new screening 
colonoscopy provision (section 103 of the BIPA) for individuals not at 
high risk for colorectal cancer. One of the commenters, however, did 
have a suggestion for how we could improve the manual instructions that 
we issue to our carriers on this subject.
    Comment: The commenter suggests that we instruct our Medicare 
carriers to identify which International Classification of Diseases--
Volume Nine (ICD-9) codes are acceptable to use in conjunction with the 
interim GO121 code that has been proposed for billing for covered 
screening colonoscopies performed for individuals not at high risk for 
colorectal cancer. The commenter stated that our failure to do this for 
screening flexible sigmoidoscopy code G0104 in the billing instructions 
we issued to our carriers in 1998 created problems for everyone 
concerned because individual carriers adopted a variety of acceptable 
ICD-9 codes, but did not inform the public under what circumstances the 
examinations were covered and when they were not.
    Response: We are not aware of the problems stated above with 
respect to the Medicare billing codes for screening flexible 
sigmoidoscopies in 1998. In addition, we have not received any 
complaints about the new billing instructions that we released to our 
carriers in February of this year in conjunction with the interim G0121 
code that was issued (effective July 1, 2001) for use in billing for 
screening colonoscopies for individuals not at high risk for colorectal 
cancer. Since individuals who might qualify for coverage under this new 
screening benefit are those who would not be at ``high risk'' for 
colorectal cancer, it is not clear to us why the physician billing for 
the service would need to provide any ICD-9 code for the examination to 
the carrier for Medicare payment to be made. We do not require that 
such information be submitted to the carrier at the present time in 
these circumstances.
Result of Evaluation of Comments
    We are implementing our proposal as stated above. In view of the 
comment, we will review the matter, and we will take any necessary 
action that might be deemed appropriate.

E. Medical Nutrition Therapy

    Section 105 of the BIPA amended section 1861(s)(2) of the Act to 
authorize Medicare Part B coverage of medical nutrition therapy (MNT) 
for certain beneficiaries who have diabetes or a renal disease, 
effective for services furnished on or after January 1, 2002. This new 
benefit is similar to a benefit initially established by section 4105 
of the BBA as a component of the diabetes outpatient self-management 
training (DSMT) benefit. The DSMT benefit, described at section 
1861(qq) of the Act, is a comprehensive diabetes training program, of 
which nutrition training is only one component.
    Consistent with section 105(a)(3) of the BIPA, we considered the 
protocols of the American Dietetic Association (ADA) and the National 
Kidney Foundation (NKF) regarding medical nutrition therapy training 
for both diabetes and renal disease in order to establish criteria for 
coverage of these services. Because the protocols were inconclusive 
with respect to duration and frequency issues, we proposed to determine 
the duration and frequency of the benefit through the NCD process 
rather than through the rulemaking process.
    We proposed to set forth the provisions regarding medical nutrition 
therapy at Part 410, subpart G and at Sec. 414.64. The MNT provisions 
of the final rule follow.

Definitions (Sec. 410.130)

    We defined ``renal disease'' for the purpose of this benefit as 
only chronic renal insufficiency and post-transplant care provided 
after discharge from the hospital. We proposed to limit post-transplant 
care to care furnished within 6 months after discharge from the 
hospital, if the transplant is viable and effective, because, under 
such conditions, we believe the beneficiary would no longer have renal 
disease and

[[Page 55276]]

would not be eligible to receive the benefit under the statutory 
provision. We specifically solicited comments on this proposed time 
period, and requested that the commenters support their comments with 
articles from medical journals. We also established definitions of 
``diabetes'', ``renal disease'', and ``chronic renal insufficiency'' 
for the purpose of this benefit using definitions from the Institute of 
Medicine report, ``The Role of Nutrition in Maintaining Health in the 
Nation's Elderly,'' published in 2000.
    We proposed defining ``episode of care'' as a time period not to 
exceed 12 months, starting with the assessment (based on a referral 
from a physician), and including all covered interventions. Finally, in 
accordance with the statute, we defined MNT services as nutritional 
diagnostic, therapy, and counseling services provided by a registered 
dietitian or nutrition professional for the purpose of managing 
disease.

Medical Nutrition Therapy (Sec. 410.132)

    At Sec. 410.132(a), we proposed the conditions for coverage of MNT 
services. Specifically, we proposed that Medicare Part B pay for MNT 
services furnished by a registered dietitian or nutrition professional 
as defined in Sec. 410.134 when the beneficiary is referred for the 
service by the beneficiary's treating physician. We proposed to limit 
the definition of physician to ``treating physician'' to ensure that 
the physician establishing the need for MNT is actually treating the 
beneficiary for a covered chronic disease and that the therapy is 
coordinated with the care being provided by the treating physician.
    We proposed that the services covered consist of nutritional 
assessment, interventions, reassessment, and follow-up interventions. 
We chose not to define the specific components of the benefit in more 
detail because we anticipated that registered dietitians and 
nutritionists would use nationally recognized protocols, such as those 
developed by the ADA, as they normally would in their practice. As 
previously mentioned, we also proposed to use the NCD process to 
develop duration and frequency limits.
    At Sec. 410.132(b), we set forth the coverage limitations for MNT 
services. In accordance with section 1861(s)(2)(V)(ii) of the Act, we 
provided that MNT services would not be covered for beneficiaries on 
dialysis for end-stage renal disease. We did not exclude all 
beneficiaries who are diagnosed with end-stage renal disease because a 
few individuals with end-stage renal disease do not receive maintenance 
dialysis, and the statute specifically excludes beneficiaries receiving 
maintenance dialysis under section 1881 of the Act. The other 
provisions of this section outlined the coordination of referrals for 
MNT for diabetes and renal disease, and coordination of MNT and DSMT 
services.
    Eligibility for MNT services will be dependent upon diagnoses and 
referrals made by the treating physician. At Sec. 410.132(c), we 
proposed that referral only be made by the treating physician when the 
beneficiary has been diagnosed with diabetes or a renal disease, with 
documentation maintained by the referring physician in the 
beneficiary's medical record. Referrals must be made for each episode 
of care.
    At Sec. 410.132(d), we discussed requirements regarding 
reassessment and follow-up interventions. Specifically, we proposed 
that reassessments and follow-up interventions would only be covered 
when the referring physician determined that there was a change of 
diagnosis or medical condition within an episode of care that made a 
change in diet necessary.

Provider Qualifications (Sec. 410.134)

    The BIPA specifies how we must define ``registered dietitian or 
nutrition professional'' for the purposes of this benefit, and allows 
for the grandfathering of nutrition professionals licensed or certified 
by States at the time of its enactment. The proposed qualifications for 
a registered dietitian or nutrition professional are set forth at 
Sec. 410.134, and include alternative criteria for recognition of 
registered dietitians in States that do not provide for licensure or 
certification of these individuals.
    We received nearly 1,000 comments on the MNT portion of the 
proposed rule. The most frequently received comments concerned: the 
definitions of diabetes, renal disease, and treating physician; the 
coordination of the diabetes self-management training and MNT benefits; 
and proposed reimbursement. We also received comments about provider 
qualifications.
    Comment: We received a large number of comments that stated we had 
defined diabetes and renal disease too narrowly and asked for further 
clarification of the definitions.
    Response: Our definition of diabetes does not specifically state 
how physicians should perform lab tests to determine if a beneficiary 
should be diagnosed with diabetes. However, as with the national 
protocols for medical nutrition therapy, we assume that physicians will 
conduct tests in accordance with nationally accepted clinical 
guidelines, which require testing on multiple occasions to determine a 
diagnosis of diabetes. We are clarifying our definition of diabetes by 
adding a sentence to further explain the etiology of the disease. We 
also have extended coverage to include gestational diabetes for the few 
Medicare beneficiaries who would need such coverage. We believe that we 
do not have the statutory authority to extend coverage to beneficiaries 
who have not yet been diagnosed with diabetes.
    We also expand the definition of renal disease in this final rule. 
First, we clarify that beneficiaries with end-stage renal disease who 
are not receiving dialysis are eligible for the service. In addition, 
we have expanded the time period in which we will cover MNT for 
beneficiaries who have received a renal transplant to 36 months, to 
bring the coverage into conformance with the Medicare eligibility 
period for individuals under age 65.
    Comment: A few commenters requested that we change our definition 
for renal disease to encompass all patients with glomerular filtration 
rates (GFR) below 60. The GFR is the measurement of renal function and 
has a range in normal adult males of 98 to 150 ml/min/1.7m2 
and in normal adult females of 106 to 132 ml/min/1.72. The 
commenters believe that we did not fulfill the intent of the Congress.
    Response: We disagree with the comment. Neither the BIPA nor its 
legislative history indicates any specific intention regarding how to 
define renal disease for purposes of eligibility for this benefit. 
Section 4108 of the BBA required the Department of Health and Human 
Services to contract with the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) to 
examine the benefits and costs associated with extending Medicare 
coverage for certain services, including medical nutrition therapy. We 
believe the NAS Institute of Medicine (IOM) report, ``The Role of 
Nutrition in Maintaining Health in the Nation's Elderly,'' published in 
2000, provides a reasonable definition for determining the scope of the 
benefit. In that report, ``renal disease'' is defined as chronic renal 
insufficiency, end-stage renal disease, and the beneficiary's condition 
following renal transplant. The GFR rate for chronic renal 
insufficiency (GFR of 13 to 50 ml/min/1.73m2) used in the 
proposed rule was also in the IOM report.
    The IOM report did not cover the period of time MNT should be 
available to beneficiaries following a renal

[[Page 55277]]

transplant. The Congress has authorized us to provide a reasonable 
interpretation of how much coverage will be provided for beneficiaries 
after renal transplant.
    The suggested eligibility criterion of a GFR under 60 suggested by 
commentators appears to be too expansive, because typically the GFR for 
beneficiaries after they receive a transplant never goes above 60. We 
also received comments recommending that we match our coverage to the 
length of time an under-65 beneficiary is entitled to post-transplant 
coverage. We agree that this is a reasonable criterion for our coverage 
of MNT services for post-renal-transplant beneficiaries.
    Comment: We received a large number of comments expressing concern 
about our use of the term ``treating physician''. Most commenters 
believe that the term does not include both primary care physicians and 
specialists. One commenter believes we exceeded our statutory 
authority. Also, some commenters believe that we should allow any 
physician to provide a referral for the service.
    Response: We did not intend to exclude primary care physicians from 
the term ``treating physician''. In this final rule, we now define the 
term ``treating physician'' to mean the primary care physician or 
specialist coordinating care for the beneficiary with diabetes or renal 
disease.
    Regarding our statutory authority, the statute, as amended at 
section 1861(s)(2)(V)(iii) of the Act, clearly states that the 
Secretary has authority to impose other criteria, after considering 
protocols established by dietetic or nutrition professional 
organizations. Requiring referral by the treating physician is within 
this statutory authority. We continue to believe that we must assure 
the quality of services received by Medicare beneficiaries. Therefore, 
our coverage guidelines must require coordination of care for 
beneficiaries with chronic diseases in order to assure that quality. We 
have not changed the final rule to allow any physician to make the 
referral for MNT.
    Comment: We also received comments concerning the definition of the 
benefit and episode of care.
    Response: As stated in the proposed rule, we relied on the national 
dietetic therapy protocols of major organizations to define the basic 
benefit. In seeking to understand the reason for these comments, we 
discovered that the use of the term ``reassessment and follow-up 
interventions'' in Secs. 410.132(a) and (d) was confusing to many 
commenters. In the national protocols, reassessments and follow-up 
interventions are always considered part of the basic service. In the 
proposed rule, we had used the terms to define a special circumstance 
that happens only when a beneficiary has a change in medical condition 
or diagnosis.
    In this final rule, we clarify our policy by eliminating the use of 
the terms ``reassessment'' and ``follow-up interventions''. We also 
have changed the language slightly in several other parts of the final 
rule to help clarify our intent, such as adding, ``treatment regimen'' 
as another reason why we would allow additional coverage in special 
circumstances. Our definition of ``episode of care'' (except in the 
case of coordination of services with initial DSMT and gestational 
diabetes) is based on our intent to pay providers of the service more 
efficiently by conforming the definition to our claims processing 
requirements. Our intent continues to be that dietitians and 
nutritionists should follow national MNT protocols.
    Comment: Some commenters stated that the DSMT and MNT benefits for 
beneficiaries with diabetes should only be coordinated to the extent of 
reducing the total of number of MNT hours by one hour.
    Response: In the proposed rule, we assumed that all of the MNT 
benefit for diabetes would be provided as part of the initial DSMT 
benefit and that follow-up DSMT and MNT for diabetes should be fully 
coordinated. In our discussions with interested organizations 
concerning the amount of services that should be covered for the NCD 
process, great concern was expressed about the coordination of the DSMT 
and MNT benefits. Therefore, we have spent a great deal of time 
researching this issue. We have found no evidence to date to suggest 
that the language of the proposed rule should be changed for this 
requirement. However, because we are still developing our NCD 
concerning the duration and frequency of the MNT benefit, we will 
continue to consider any evidence that might lead to the conclusion 
that additional hours should be covered when both benefits are provided 
during the same time period.
    Until such time as an NCD alters this requirement, if initial DSMT 
and MNT benefits for diabetes are provided in the same 12 month episode 
of care, only 10 total hours of services will be covered, regardless of 
whether the hours are covered as MNT, DSMT, or a combination of both. 
In situations where follow-up DSMT and MNT for diabetes is provided, 
only the total amount of hours allowed under the MNT benefit will be 
covered. (The MNT cap will be applied to any DSMT services provided to 
a beneficiary during the follow-up period, until such time as an NCD 
alters this requirement.)
    Comment: We received comments that MNT for a diagnosis of renal 
disease and MNT for a diagnosis of diabetes should not be fully 
coordinated.
    Response: In this final rule, we are not changing this requirement 
because the provision at Sec. 410.132(d) (in this final rule 
Sec. 410.132(b)(5)) already provides for additional coverage in this 
situation and we believe that additional coverage is not necessary. 
However, we are clarifying that beneficiaries receiving initial DSMT 
can receive the full initial DSMT benefit.
    Comment: One commenter was concerned that providers that had 
completed a full course of study of dietetics or nutrition after 
completion of a bachelor's degree would be excluded. We also received 
comments asking us to clarify the requirements further.
    Response: We agree that individuals that complete the full course 
of study of an accredited dietetics or nutrition program after 
completion of a bachelor's degree would still meet the intent of the 
legislation. Therefore, we have altered the regulatory language to 
include these individuals. However, we will require our contractors to 
require the practitioner to provide proof of completion of the course 
of study in addition to proof of receiving the degree.
    In situations where the individual is credentialed as a registered 
dietitian by an organization appropriate for this purpose, we will 
recognize that credential as proof that the individual meets both the 
education and experience required in the regulation. We have added 
language at Secs. 410.134(a) and (d) to change the final rule.
    Comment: A commenter noted that State licensure requirements vary 
considerably; providers will need to obtain multiple licenses when they 
perform services in more than one State; and providers will have to 
meet different requirements if State licensure provisions change.
    Response: The statutory intent to recognize State licensure and 
State licensure requirements is clear. We cannot require States to have 
similar licensure requirements, recognize licensure by other States, or 
to provide for grandfathering of providers when State licensure laws 
change. Therefore, we have not changed the final rule to reflect these 
comments.

[[Page 55278]]

Payment for Medical Nutrition Therapy (Sec. 414.64)

    Section 105(c) of the BIPA requires that we pay for medical 
nutrition therapy services at 80 percent of the lesser of the actual 
charge for the services or 85 percent of the amount determined under 
the physician fee schedule for the same services if the services had 
been furnished by a physician. Based upon consultation with the 
American Dietetic Association (ADA) to assess the types of resource 
inputs used to furnish a 15-minute medical nutrition therapy session by 
a registered dietitian or professional nutritionist, we proposed the 
following:
    For CPT code 97802--Medical nutrition therapy; initial assessment 
and intervention, individual, face-to-face with the patient, each 15 
minutes, we did not propose physician work RVUs for this service, based 
on the statutory provision that specifically provides that medical 
nutrition therapy services may only be furnished by registered 
dietitians or nutrition professionals. For practice expense, we 
proposed 0.47 RVUs and, for malpractice, we proposed 0.01 RVUs for a 
total of 0.48 RVUs.
    For CPT code 97803--Reassessments and intervention, individual, 
face-to-face with the patient, each 15 minutes, we proposed 0.0 work 
RVUs, 0.34 practice expense RVUs and 0.01 malpractice RVUs for a total 
of 0.35 RVUs.
    For CPT code 97804--Group, 2 or more individuals, each 30 minutes, 
we proposed 0.0 work RVUs, 0.14 practice expense RVUs and 0.01 
malpractice RVUs for a total of 0.15 RVUs. To determine payment, the 
RVUs shown above would need to be multiplied by the physician fee 
schedule conversion factor and 0.85 (to reflect the statutory 
requirement that payment be 85 percent of the amount determined under 
the physician fee schedule).
    We also stated that, consistent with the definition in the CPT's 
Physical Medicine Rehabilitation codes, a group is considered to be 2 
or more individuals and that Medicare co-payments and deductibles would 
apply for medical nutritional therapy services.
    Comment: The American Dietetic Association (ADA) and many 
individuals submitted comments concerning the proposed reimbursement 
rate for medical nutrition therapy services. They stated that the 
proposed reimbursement rate for these services is too low and would 
result in limited beneficiary access to these services since private 
practice dietitians will choose not to participate. Some commenters 
referenced reimbursement rates currently paid by private insurers of 
$85 to $125 for 1 to 1\1/2\ hours for an initial visit and $85 per hour 
for follow-up. They believe that the proposed rate for Medicare is far 
short of what was envisioned by the Congress. Commenters indicated that 
the statute clearly states that medical nutrition therapy payment 
should be 80 percent of the lesser of the actual charge or 85 percent 
of the amount determined under the physician fee schedule for the same 
service, provided by a physician. According to commenters, physicians 
who are also registered dietitians, use E/M codes 99213 through 99215 
and 99244 when providing medical nutrition therapy services. The 
commenters stated that E/M codes 99203 through 99205 are appropriate 
reference points for determining medical nutrition therapy payment. The 
commenters also stated that any refinement of medical nutrition therapy 
values should be based on the underlying E/M codes that they believe 
are the statutory basis for medical nutrition therapy payment. While 
commenters acknowledge that physicians may perform other tasks besides 
nutritional assessment, therapy and counseling during an office visit, 
they believe those additional services are the basis for the Congress' 
instruction to reimburse non-physician providers of medical nutrition 
therapy at 85 percent of the amount physicians receive. The AMA's 
Health Care Professionals Advisory Committee (HCPAC) submitted a 
comment that suggested there should be physician work for medical 
nutrition therapy. This group provides recommendations on valuing 
services for codes used by non-physician providers. The HCPAC indicated 
that it evaluated each of the medical nutrition therapy codes and 
compared them to services that are available to other providers but not 
nutritionists (for example, physical therapy services). The comment 
further stated that the 15 percent reduction should not apply because 
the HCPAC took this into account when developing the recommendations. 
The HCPAC further added that there should be work values for medical 
nutrition therapy just as there are for physical and occupational 
therapy.
    Response: We have reviewed the statute and legislative history. 
There is no indication that Congress envisioned a particular payment 
amount or expected us to use an E/M service to determine the value of 
medical nutrition therapy. Section 105(c) of the BIPA states that ``the 
amount paid shall be 80 percent of the lesser of the actual charge for 
the services or 85 percent of the amount determined under the fee 
schedule established under section 1848(b) of the Act for the same 
services if furnished by a physician.'' The BIPA Conference Report 
indicates that payment will equal ``the lesser of the actual charge for 
the service or 85 percent of the amount that would be paid under the 
physician fee schedule if such services were provided by a physician.'' 
The statute and Conference Report direct us to establish the physician 
fee schedule amount for nutrition therapy services. The Medicare 
allowed charge would equal 100 percent of the physician fee schedule 
amount if the services are performed by a physician and 85 percent of 
the physician fee schedule amount if the services are performed by a 
registered dietitian or nutrition professional. The commenters suggest 
that physicians currently bill for an E/M service when they provide 
nutrition services. We do not believe that it is appropriate to compare 
medical nutrition therapy provided by a registered dietitian to an E/M 
service provided by a physician. Registered dietitians do not take 
medical histories, they are not trained to and do not perform physical 
examinations, nor do they make medical decisions. Furthermore, when 
physicians use an E/M code to report the provision of counseling or 
coordination of care, they typically have also performed a medical 
history, physical examination, and engaged in medical decision making 
as part of that service. If such an individual performed a service that 
met the requirements of an E/M service, then it would be be appropriate 
for him or her to report an E/M service. Further, we note that the E/M 
services include not only an amount attributable to physician work, but 
also payment for physician practice expenses. For instance, a level 3 
new patient office visit (CPT code 99203) includes payment for 50 
minutes of nurse time. A level 3 established patient office visit (CPT 
code 99213) includes 36 minutes of nurse time. Both of these codes 
include additional compensation for medical equipment and supplies that 
are typically used in an office visit but are not used as part of a 
medical nutrition therapy service. If we were to adopt the commenters' 
view and crosswalk values for medical nutrition therapy to an E/M 
service, we would be including payment not only for the counseling 
service of the practitioner, but also, inappropriately for the costs of 
clinical personnel that are not involved in the nutrition therapy 
service.

[[Page 55279]]

    Commenters indicated that the statute established the 85 percent 
adjustment to account for activities that are typically performed by a 
physician during an E/M service are not performed by a nutritionist. 
The statute and legislative history do not indicate that the 85 percent 
adjustment is intended to serve this purpose. In fact, the commenters 
themselves note that ``consistent with other non-physician providers, 
reimbursement is set at a percentage of the physician's fee schedule.'' 
Under the physician fee schedule, we will pay a physician 80 percent of 
100 percent of the physician fee schedule amount, and, if a non-
physician practitioner provides an identical service, Medicare pays 80 
percent of 85 percent of the physician fee schedule amount. For 
instance, under CPT code 99213, a level 3 established patient office 
visit is one of the most common services provided by physicians, 
physician assistants and nurse practitioners. Even though the service 
is considered to be identical, we can by law pay a physician assistant 
and nurse practitioner only 85 percent of what we pay a physician to do 
the same service. Thus, in the case of other practitioners, the 
percentage does not reflect that a non-physician practitioner provides 
fewer services than a physician. Because there is no indication in the 
statute that the 85 percent adjustment should apply differently in the 
context of medical nutrition therapy than for other services performed 
by non-physician practitioners, we believe it is appropriate to pay 80 
percent of 100 percent of the physician fee schedule amount when 
medical nutrition therapy is provided by a physician and 80 percent of 
85 percent of the physician fee schedule amount when the service is 
provided by a registered dietitian or nutrition professional.
    In response to the comment about payment rates of private insurers 
for medical nutrition therapy, we cannot use such information in a 
relative value system to establish payment. Section 1848(c) of the Act 
requires us to establish RVUs that recognize the relative resources 
involved in furnishing different physician fee schedule services. Thus, 
our role is to establish the appropriate relative payment amounts. The 
total payment amount is determined under a formula prescribed in 
section 1848(d) of the Act. We have no authority to change the formula.
    In response to the HCPAC recommendation, we reiterate that it is 
inappropriate to compare medical nutrition therapy services to E/M 
services performed by physicians. While medical nutrition therapy may 
be performed by a physician who is also a registered dietitian, this 
does not make it a physician's service that requires a work RVU. 
Physicians may occasionally perform other services that have no 
physician work, such as chemotherapy administration or the technical 
component of a diagnostic x-ray test. When such services with no 
physician work are performed by a physician, we do not establish a 
physician work RVU just because the service was performed by a 
physician in that instance. Physicians will occasionally meet the 
statutory qualifications to be considered a registered dietitian or 
nutrition professional who can bill Medicare for medical nutrition 
therapy services. In these circumstances, we will pay the physician 80 
percent of 100 percent of the physician fee schedule amount. In this 
unusual circumstance, we are paying for a medical nutrition therapy 
service provided by a physician under section 1861(s)(2)(V) and not a 
physician's service under section 1861(s)(1) of the Act.
    Comment: One comment indicated that the 85 percent adjustment 
should not apply because the RVUs we used are not based on physician 
work or physician practice expenses to deliver the service. This 
commenter indicated that we proposed an inadequate payment by not 
following the statutory scheme and proceeded to apply a 15 percent 
discount that is neither fair nor reasonable.
    Response: The statute requires us to establish a physician fee 
schedule amount for the service and pay 80 percent of 100 percent of 
the amount if the service is provided by a physician and 80 percent of 
85 percent if the service is provided by a registered dietitian or 
nutrition professional. We initially anticipated that physicians would 
never bill Medicare for medical nutrition therapy services because they 
generally would not meet the statutory requirements to be considered 
registered dietitians or nutrition professionals. In this circumstance, 
we agree that it seems unusual to apply a reduction for a service that 
seldom would be furnished by a physician. However, we believe that the 
statute requires that Medicare payment be based on the 85 percent 
level. We understand that, although not common, there are physicians 
who do meet the statutory requirements to be considered registered 
dietitians or nutrition professionals. In these circumstances, our 
payment to the physician will be based on 100 percent of the physician 
fee schedule amount, not the 85 percent that we will pay to a 
registered dietitian or nutrition professional. We believe the statute 
would not allow a physician who does not meet the statutory 
requirements for a registered dietitian or nutrition professional to be 
paid for a medical nutrition therapy service. If a physician provides 
medical nutrition counseling as part of a patient encounter that meets 
the requirements for an E/M service, the physician can bill Medicare 
for a physician's service.
    Comment: We received one comment requesting that we clarify that 
Medicare will pay qualified providers in private practice settings or 
physician offices where they may be independent contractors. The 
commenter also asked how we intend to pay for medical nutrition therapy 
in the hospital outpatient department. The commenter also asked for 
clarification on reassignment of payment if a registered dietitian is 
an employee of physicians or hospital outpatient facilities.
    Response: Medicare will pay qualified dietitians and nutrition 
professionals who enroll in the Medicare program regardless of whether 
they provide medical nutrition therapy services in an independent 
practice setting, hospital outpatient department or any other setting, 
with the exception of services provided to patients in an inpatient 
stay in a hospital or skilled nursing facility. In these circumstances, 
our payment to the hospital or skilled nursing facility includes 
payment for medical nutrition therapy. If a qualified practitioner 
provides medical nutrition therapy in any other setting, including a 
private practice setting, section 1833(a)(1)(T) of the Act requires 
that Medicare payment equal 80 percent of the lesser of actual charges 
or 80 percent of 85 percent of the amount determined under the 
physician fee schedule. Payment in the hospital outpatient department 
will be made under the physician fee schedule, not under the hospital 
outpatient prospective payment system.
    Current rules regarding reassignment of benefits would apply to 
medical nutrition therapy. We want to emphasize that medical nutrition 
therapy cannot be provided incident to a physician's service unless the 
physician also meets the qualifications to bill Medicare as a 
registered dietitian or nutrition professional.
    Comment: Commenters objected to the methodology used to establish 
the proposed RVUs for this service. They believe it is inappropriate to 
use the top-down or no-work pool methodology to determine medical 
nutrition therapy payment. They believe that medical nutrition therapy 
payment should not be based on comparison to a preventive medicine code 
(CPT code 99401) in the zero-work pool methodology. The

[[Page 55280]]

commenters indicated that preventive medicine services omit the 
problem-oriented components of the comprehensive history, as well as 
other essential assessment points, such as the patient's chief 
complaint and history of present illness. They disagree with our 
assertion in the proposed rule that physicians do not perform nutrition 
services and assert that it is inappropriate to use the top-down or 
zero-work methodology to establish the RVU for medical nutrition 
therapy.
    Response: We use the top-down methodology or no-work pool 
methodology to price the practice expense RVUs for all services priced 
under the Medicare physician fee schedule. Given that the statute 
indicates that medical nutrition therapy should be paid using the 
physician fee schedule, we believe it is reasonable and appropriate to 
use the same methodologies that we use to develop RVUs for other 
physician fee schedule services. With respect to use of the preventive 
medicine service, we used a service that we felt had similar practice 
expenses to medical nutrition therapy. It is not clear why practice 
expenses for a counseling service would differ based on the health 
status of the patient.
    Comment: A commenter representing dietitians asked us to review the 
relativity of payment across the three medical nutrition CPT codes. The 
commenter indicated that payment for CPT code 97803 was set at 72.9 
percent of proposed RVUs for CPT code 97802 and 97804 was set at 31 
percent of CPT code 97802. The commenter argues that, because 
reassessments are shorter than initial assessments, the proposed RVUs 
are actually discounted twice (that is, less payment per 15 minutes of 
time as well as less total time). They believe that the value of CPT 
codes 97802 and 97803 should be identical. The commenters indicated 
that E/M services provided by physicians do not receive the same 
discount. The commenter also stated that the payment for CPT code 97804 
was less than for other group services and gave the example of a nurse 
or pharmacist providing nutrition instruction under the diabetes self-
management training benefit.
    Response: We have reviewed the payments for CPT codes 97802 and 
97803 and agree with the commenter that these two codes should have the 
same values. The essential difference between an initial and follow up 
medical nutrition therapy service is the time spent performing the 
service. Initial visits will be longer than follow-up visits and will 
likely involve Medicare payment for more increments of service. We will 
pay less for follow up visits because they will typically involve fewer 
15 minute increments of time than an initial visit. The payment rate we 
are establishing in this final rule for CPT code 97803 will be the same 
as the proposed rate for CPT code 97802. We have also changed the 
payment rate for CPT code 97804 assuming that the code will normally be 
billed for 4 to 6 patients with the average of 5. Using the revised 
values, the payment rate for group medical nutrition therapy would 
approximate the hourly rate paid for other medical nutrition therapy 
services. (We note that the RVU units between the proposed and final 
rule show some marginal change because of changes made in the practice 
expense methodology that affect all physician fee schedule services). 
We do not agree with the comment that ``evaluation and management 
services provided by physicians do not receive the same discount.'' E/M 
service are not time based services and, as stated above, for many 
reasons are inappropriate comparisons to medical nutrition therapy 
service codes.
    Comment: Many commenters stated that co-payments must be structured 
so that they are not barriers to the medical nutrition therapy benefit.
    Response: Section 105(c) of the BIPA modifies section 1833(a)(1) of 
the Act to add subparagraph (T) that requires that Medicare payment 
equal 80 percent of the lesser of the actual charge for the services or 
85 percent of the amount determined under physician fee schedule. The 
statute requires the same coinsurance for medical nutrition therapy 
services that applies to other Part B services.
    Comment: Commenters suggested that initial medical nutrition 
therapy sessions for treatment of diabetes or renal disease should be 
billed under CPT code 97802 and subsequent medical nutrition therapy 
sessions should be billed under CPT code 97803. New diagnoses due to a 
change in medical condition or unanticipated complications should be 
billed under CPT code 97802 and subsequent medical nutrition therapy 
sessions should be billed under CPT code 97803.
    Response: At the present time, we are requiring that medical 
nutrition therapy be reported by using CPT codes 97802, 97803, and 
97804. We will revisit our coding requirements when we publish the NCD 
for medical nutrition therapy. The NCD will set forth the structure of 
the medical nutrition therapy benefit in detail. We will make a 
decision concerning creation or modification of codes and creation of 
modifiers for reporting medical nutrition therapy once the NCD has been 
published. Until the NCD is published, creation or modification of 
codes and creation of modifiers would be premature. Therefore, we are 
requiring that the initial individual medical nutrition therapy visit 
be reported as CPT code 97802 and all follow up visits (for 
interventions and reassessments) for individual medical nutrition 
therapy be reported as CPT code 97803. All group medical nutrition 
therapy visits should be reported as CPT code 97804 whether they are 
initial or follow up visits.
    Comment: Commenters urged us to define medical nutrition therapy 
descriptors consistently. They stated that the descriptors in Table 5 
of the proposed rule should agree with the descriptors in Sec. 414.132.
    Response: We agree. We will make the descriptors for medical 
nutrition therapy consistent with the nomenclature in CPT and our 
regulations.
    Comment: We received a comment that recommended that we consider 
including additional items in the practice expense inputs for medical 
nutrition therapy. The commenter indicated that inputs should include 
staff costs for training on billing procedures, Health Insurance 
Portability and Accountability Act training, audit expenses, and other 
costs resulting from Medicare policies and procedures. The commenter 
indicated that expenses of registered dietitians in private practice 
differ little from other practitioners.
    Response: There are two major data sources used in the practice 
expense methodology--estimates of direct inputs and aggregate practice 
expense per hour information from the AMA's Socioeconomic Monitoring 
Survey. At this time, we are using the practice expense per hour for 
all physicians to establish the practice expense RVUs for medical 
nutrition therapy. We are not currently using the estimates of direct 
expenses for medical nutrition therapy because the services are valued 
in the no-work pool. However, we are researching alternatives to the 
no-work pool that would allow all no-work services to be priced under 
the top-down methodology. If we develop such an alternative, the 
estimates of direct expenses will be important in determining the RVUs 
for medical nutrition therapy. Indirect expenses are based on physician 
work and direct inputs. We believe that many of the costs identified by 
this commenter are indirect costs that would likely be included in 
practice expenses reported through the SMS survey. Since the commenter 
has suggested that practice expenses for private practice registered 
dietitians differ little from other

[[Page 55281]]

practitioners, we believe the average practice expense per hour for all 
physicians is sufficient to use in the practice expense methodology.

Result of Evaluation of Comments

    The payment rate we are establishing in this final rule for CPT 
code 97803 will be the same as the rate for CPT code 97802. We are also 
changing the payment rate for CPT code 97804 using the assumption that 
the code will normally be billed for 4 to 6 patients with the average 
of 5. Using these revised values, the payment rate for group medical 
nutrition therapy will approximate the hourly rate paid for other 
medical nutrition therapy services.

F. Telehealth Services

    Beginning October 1, 2001, the BIPA amended section 1834 of the Act 
to specify that we pay a physician (as defined in section 1861(r) of 
the Act) or a practitioner (described in section 1842(b)(18)(C) of the 
Act) for telehealth services that are furnished via a 
telecommunications system to an eligible telehealth individual.
    The BIPA defined Medicare telehealth services as professional 
consultations, office or other outpatient visits, and office psychiatry 
services identified as of July 1, 2000, by CPT codes 99241 through 
99275; 99201 through 99215, 90804 through 90809 and 90862 (and as we 
may subsequently modify) and any additional service we specify. The 
BIPA defines an eligible telehealth individual as an individual 
enrolled under Part B who receives a telehealth service furnished at an 
originating site.
    Section 1834(m) of the Act, as added by the BIPA, limited an 
originating site to a physician's or practitioner's office, hospital, 
critical access hospital, rural health clinic, or Federally qualified 
health center. Additionally, the BIPA specified that the originating 
site must be located in one of the following geographic areas:
     In an area that is designated as a rural health 
professional shortage area (HPSA) under section 332(a)(1)(A) of the 
Public Health Service Act.
     In a county that is not included in a Metropolitan 
Statistical Area (MSA).
    However, an entity participating in a Federal telemedicine 
demonstration project that has been approved by, or receives funding 
from us as of December 31, 2000 would not be required to be in a rural 
HPSA or non-MSA.
    The BIPA also required that we pay a physician or practitioner 
located at a distant site that furnishes a telehealth service to an 
eligible telehealth beneficiary an amount equal to the amount that the 
physician or practitioner would have been paid under Medicare had the 
service been furnished without the use of a telecommunications system.
    This section also provided for a facility fee payment for the 
period beginning October 1, 2001 through December 31, 2002, to the 
originating site of $20. For each subsequent year, the facility fee for 
the preceding year is increased by the percentage increase in the MEI 
as defined in section 1842(i)(3) of the Act. The BIPA also amended 
section 1833(a)(1) of the Act to specify that the amount paid must be 
80 percent of the lesser of the actual charge or the amounts specified 
in new section 1834(m)(2) of the Act.
    In order for us to have this benefit expansion implemented timely, 
we have used a program memorandum. The program memorandum was effective 
October 1, 2001. This final rule will be effective January 1, 2002.
    The rule published on August 2, 2001 proposed to establish policies 
for implementing the provisions of section 1834(m) of the Act, as added 
by the BIPA, that change Medicare payment for telehealth services.
    We proposed to revise Sec. 410.78 to specify that Medicare 
beneficiaries are eligible for telehealth services only if they receive 
services from an originating site located in either a rural HPSA as 
defined by section 332(a)(1)(A) of the Public Health Services Act or in 
a county outside of a MSA as defined by section 1886(d)(2)(D) of the 
Act.
1. Definitions
    Section 1834(m)(4)(F) of the Act, which was added by the BIPA and 
became effective for services beginning October 1, 2001, defined 
telehealth services as professional consultations, office and other 
outpatient visits, individual psychotherapy, pharmacologic management, 
and any additional service we specify. Additionally, this provision 
identified covered services by HCPCS codes identified as of July 1, 
2000. We proposed to revise Sec. 410.78 to implement this coverage 
expansion to include the following services (and corresponding CPT 
codes):
     Consultations (codes 99241 through 99275).
     Office and other outpatient visits (codes 99201 through 
99215).
     Individual psychotherapy (codes 90804 through 90809).
     Pharmacologic management (code 90862).
    We solicited comments regarding the guidelines that we should use 
to make additions or deletions of services. We also solicited comments 
about specific services that may be appropriate to be covered under the 
Medicare telehealth benefit.
    In this final rule, we are specifying at Sec. 410.78 that, except 
for the use of store and forward technology in the demonstration 
programs conducted in Alaska or Hawaii, an interactive 
telecommunications system must be used and the medical examination of 
the patient must be at the control of the physician or practitioner at 
the distant site. We are defining interactive telecommunications system 
as multimedia communications equipment that includes, at a minimum, 
audio and video equipment permitting two-way, real-time interactive 
communication between the patient and physician or practitioner at the 
distant site. We are also specifying that telephones, facsimile 
machines, and electronic mail systems do not meet the definition of an 
interactive telecommunications system.
    A patient need not be present for a Federal telemedicine 
demonstration program conducted in Alaska or Hawaii. We are specifying 
that for Federal telemedicine demonstration programs conducted in 
Alaska or Hawaii, Medicare payment is permitted for telehealth when 
asynchronous store and forward technologies, in single or multimedia 
formats, are used as a substitute for an interactive telecommunications 
system. Additionally, we are specifying that the physician or 
practitioner at the distant site must be affiliated with the 
demonstration program.
    We are defining asynchronous, store and forward technologies, as 
the transmission of the patient's medical information from an 
originating site to the physician or practitioner at the distant site. 
The physician or practitioner at the distant site can review the 
medical case without the patient being present. An asynchronous 
telecommunications system in single media format does not include 
telephone calls, images transmitted via facsimile machines, and text 
messages without visualization of the patient (electronic mail). 
Photographs must be specific to the patient's medical condition and 
adequate for rendering or confirming a diagnosis or treatment plan. 
Finally, we are defining the originating site as the location of an 
eligible telehealth individual at the time the service being furnished 
via a telecommunications system occurs.
2. Conditions of Payment
    The BIPA changed the telepresenter requirements. In accordance with 
section 1834(m)(2)(C) of the Act, a

[[Page 55282]]

telepresenter is not required to be present. Therefore, we would not 
require a telepresenter as a condition of Medicare payment.
    Section 1834(m)(1) of the Act requires that Medicare make payments 
for telehealth services furnished via a telecommunications system by a 
physician or a practitioner (described in section 1842(b)(18)(C) of the 
Act). Non-physician practitioners described in this section of the Act 
include nurse practitioners, physician assistants, clinical nurse 
specialists, certified nurse midwives, clinical psychologists, clinical 
social workers, and certified registered nurse anesthetists or 
anesthesiologists' assistants. Section 1834(m)(2) of the Act specifies 
that we pay the physician or practitioner at the distant site who 
furnishes a telehealth service an amount equal to the amount that the 
physician or practitioner would have been paid under Medicare had the 
service been furnished without the use of a telecommunications system.
    Certified registered nurse anesthetists and anesthesiologists' 
assistants would not be permitted to bill for and receive payment for a 
telehealth service under this provision. Under the Medicare program, 
these practitioners do not receive payment for office visits, 
consultation, individual psychotherapy, or pharmacologic management 
when these services are furnished without the use of a 
telecommunications system. Section 1834(m)(2) of the Act specifies that 
we pay to the distant site physician or practitioner an amount equal to 
what would have been paid for the service without the use of a 
telecommunications system. Therefore, certified registered nurse 
anesthetists and anesthesiologists' assistants would not receive 
payment for telehealth services.
    We proposed at Sec. 410.78 that, as a condition of Part B payment 
for telehealth services, the physician or practitioner at the distant 
site must be licensed to provide the service under State law.
    Section 1834(m)(2)(A) of the Act specifies that the payment amount 
for the professional service is equal to the amount that would have 
been paid without the use of a telecommunications system. Medicare 
payment for physicians' services is generally based, under section 1848 
of the Act, on the resource-based physician fee schedule. Payment to 
other health care practitioners listed earlier, authorized under 
section 1833 of the Act, is based on a percentage of the physician fee 
schedule payment amount. Therefore, we will pay for office or other 
outpatient visits, consultation, individual psychotherapy, and 
pharmacologic management services furnished by physicians at 80 percent 
of the lower of the actual charge or the fee schedule amount for 
physicians' services. We will also pay for services furnished by other 
practitioners at 80 percent of the lower of the actual charge or that 
practitioner's respective percentage of the physician fee schedule.
    Section 1834(m)(2) of the Act provides for a professional fee for 
the physician or practitioner at the distant site (equal to the 
applicable Part B fee schedule amount) and a $20 facility fee for the 
originating site. Telepresenters are not required, unless one is deemed 
medically necessary by the physician or practitioner at the distant 
site. The BIPA does not address the issue of payment for the 
telepresenter. The Office of the Inspector General has advised us that 
permitting the physician or practitioner at the distant site to pay the 
telepresenter creates a significant risk under the anti-kickback 
statute. Therefore, we establish in Sec. 414.65 that payments made to 
the distant site physician or practitioner for professional fees, 
including deductible and coinsurance (for the professional service), 
are not to be shared with the referring practitioner or telepresenter.
    However, the telepresenter could bill and receive payment for 
services that are not telehealth services that a telepresenter would 
otherwise be allowed to provide under the Medicare statute, including 
services furnished on the same day as the telehealth service.
    The BBA prohibited any payment for line charges or facility fees 
associated with a professional consultation via a telecommunications 
system. Section 1834(m)(2)(B) of the Act, as added by the BIPA, 
provides for a facility fee payment to the originating site, specifying 
that the amount of payment is 80 percent of the lesser of the actual 
charge or a facility fee of $20.00. The BIPA further specifies that, 
beginning January 1, 2003, the originating facility fee be increased 
annually by the Medicare Economic Index (MEI) as defined in section 
1842(i)(3) of the Act. Additionally, we clarify that the Geographic 
Practice Cost Index (GPCI) would not apply to the facility fee for the 
originating site. This fee is statutorily set and is not subject to the 
geographic payment adjustments authorized under the physician's fee 
schedule. The beneficiary is responsible for any unmet deductible 
amount and Medicare coinsurance. We would revise Sec. 414.65 to provide 
for payment of a facility fee to the originating site.
    Section 1834(m)(3) of the Act specifies that sections 
1842(b)(18)(A) and (B) apply to physicians and practitioners receiving 
payment for telehealth services and to originating sites receiving a 
facility fee, in the same manner as they apply to practitioners. This 
section requires that payment for such services may only be made on an 
assignment-related basis. We did not reflect this provision in the 
proposed rule. Because this requirement is specified in the BIPA and we 
have no discretion, we are implementing it in this final rule in new 
Sec. 414.65(d).
    Comment: One commenter believed that requiring an originating site 
to be located in a rural HPSA or non-MSA county would not permit 
medical practitioners located in urban and suburban areas to offer 
telehealth services.
    Response: We clarify that, as a condition of payment under 
Medicare, the originating site must be located in a rural HPSA or non-
MSA county. The physician or practitioner at the distant site, who 
provides the telehealth service, is not subject to these limitations. 
For example, a psychologist in Salt Lake City, Utah would be able to 
provide a mental health visit to a beneficiary at a physician's office 
located in a non-MSA county.
    Comment: We received various comments on the definition of an 
originating site. Many commenters believe that the list of facilities 
eligible to be a telehealth originating site should be expanded beyond 
those specified in the statute. Specific suggestions were received to 
include the patient's residence, skilled nursing facilities, nursing 
homes, and community mental health centers as originating site 
facilities within this provision. Another commenter suggested that we 
recommend legislative changes to remove the requirement that an 
originating site facility be located in a HPSA or non-MSA county.
    Moreover, one organization requested that all locations included 
within the Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium, including but not 
limited to outpatient health facilities recognized by the Indian Health 
Service as tribal health facilities be included as an originating site. 
The commenter requested that these sites be defined as an originating 
site regardless of whether they are certified as a Medicare Federally 
qualified health center or not.
    Response: Section 1834(m) of the Act defines an originating site 
facility to include only a physician's or practitioner's office, 
hospital, critical access hospital, rural health clinic or Federally 
qualified health center.

[[Page 55283]]

Further, the Act specifies that the originating site must be located in 
a rural HPSA or non-MSA county. We do not have the legislative 
authority to expand the definition of a telehealth originating site 
beyond this provision. However, we will be studying this issue as part 
of a report to the Congress as authorized by section 223(d) of the 
BIPA.
    Comment: One specialty college requested confirmation that the 
patient's medical information provided via store and forward telehealth 
is furnished to the physician or practitioner at the distant site in 
order to recommend or confirm a diagnosis and or treatment plan and not 
to provide a formal interpretation of imaging exams.
    Response: The commenter is correct. Payment for services via store 
and forward technology under this provision does not include formal 
interpretation of an imaging exam. Medicare currently allows coverage 
and payment for medical services delivered via a telecommunications 
system that do not require a face-to-face ``hands on'' encounter. 
Section 2020(A) of the Medicare Carriers Manual addresses this issue 
and lists radiology, electrocardiogram, and electroencephalogram 
interpretations as examples of such services.
    Comment: In the proposed rule, we requested comments on the 
guidelines that we should use to make additions or deletions to covered 
Medicare telehealth services. We also requested suggestions and 
comments about specific services that may be appropriate for payment 
under the Medicare telehealth benefit. In response to our solicitation, 
we received one comment regarding the guidelines we should use to make 
changes to the scope of Medicare telehealth coverage. Ten commenters 
provided specific suggestions regarding additional services that may be 
appropriate for the Medicare telehealth benefit.
    Several commenters indicated that a psychiatric diagnostic 
interview, CPT code 90801, would be appropriate for Medicare telehealth 
payment. One association stated that the elements of this service are 
directly comparable to a new patient office visit, which the law 
defines as a telehealth service. Given that the law permits us to add 
additional services as appropriate, this commenter suggested that we 
include a psychiatric diagnostic interview within the definition of a 
telehealth service. Another association suggested that interactive 
psychotherapy, CPT codes 90810, 90812 and 90814, should be covered 
Medicare telehealth services. Interactive psychotherapy uses play 
equipment, physical devices and other mechanisms of non-verbal 
communication in an office or outpatient facility.
    Several commenters suggested that telerehabilitation interventions 
that provide education, mentoring and consultation be included within 
the scope of Medicare telehealth coverage. The commenters specifically 
note that speech therapy and physical and occupational therapy should 
be included as telehealth services.
    One consortium requested that all services provided under the 
Federal telehealth project in Alaska be included as covered telehealth 
services within this provision. The commenter believes that virtually 
all evaluation & management and psychiatry services should be included 
as Medicare telehealth services. Additionally, the commenter notes that 
many respiratory, digestive, ophthalmology and otorhinolaryngology 
services are appropriate for telehealth coverage.
    One organization suggested that we consider guidelines similar to 
those currently in place for non-telehealth services. For instance, the 
commenter stated the service should be reasonable and necessary, safe 
and effective, medically appropriate, and provided within the purview 
of accepted standards of medical practice. The commenter stresses that 
the type of technology used to deliver the service should be secondary 
to the reasonable and necessary criteria.
    Response: We will use these comments and suggestions to assist us 
in establishing guidelines for a telehealth coverage process and the 
addition of specific telehealth services that may be appropriate for 
Medicare beneficiaries. However, we do not believe it would be 
appropriate to expand the scope of telehealth services beyond the 
services explicitly listed in the Act until we have a process in place 
for adding new telehealth services.
    Comment: With regard to the definition of a ``telecommunications 
system'', one organization encouraged us to permit store and forward 
technologies in other circumstances beyond federal telemedicine 
demonstration projects conducted in Alaska or Hawaii. The commenter 
believes that emphasis should be given to whether a particular service 
is reasonable and necessary rather than specific technology 
requirements. Moreover, the commenter stated that the face-to-face 
requirement is outdated for telehealth as well as other areas of the 
Medicare fee schedule and suggested that current technology, such as 
electronic mail, permits physicians to care for their patients even 
when the patient is not present.
    Response: Section 1834(m) of the Act defines a telehealth service 
as office and other outpatient visits (99201 through 99215), 
professional consultations (99241 through 99275), individual 
psychotherapy (90804 through 90809), and pharmacologic management 
(90862). Further, the law specifies that payment must be equal to what 
would have been paid without the use of a telecommunications system.
    As a condition of payment under Medicare, these services require a 
face-to-face patient encounter. We believe that the patient's presence 
and use of an interactive audio and video telecommunications system 
permitting the distant site practitioner to interact with the patient 
provides a reasonable substitute for a face-to-face encounter. The law 
provides for the use of asynchronous, store and forward technologies 
for delivering telehealth services only for telemedicine demonstration 
projects conducted in Alaska or Hawaii. We do not have the authority to 
expand the use of store and forward technology in delivering telehealth 
services.
    Comment: One organization in a remote region requested that a 
definition of a telepresenter be added to Sec. 410.78. The commenter 
suggested we permit a certified community health aid to present a 
patient when the aide is the only medical professional available to act 
as a telepresenter.
    Response: The physician or practitioner at the distant site has the 
authority to determine whether it is medically necessary to require a 
telepresenter and, if necessary, the appropriate medical professional 
needed to present the patient. We do not believe it is appropriate for 
us to specify the type of medical professionals that are necessary to 
act as a telepresenter.
    Comment: We received conflicting comments concerning interstate 
telehealth services. One organization requested that we require the 
physician or practitioner at the distant site to be licensed in the 
State where the originating site is located. On the other hand, an 
association requested clarification that the physician or practitioner 
at the distant site only needs to be licensed in the State where he or 
she is located and does not need to be licensed in the State where the 
originating site is located. Another commenter requested that we 
clarify that the service is considered rendered where the distant site 
physician or practitioner is located.
    Response: We defer to State law regarding licensure issues. When 
the

[[Page 55284]]

State law for the originating site permits an out-of-State practitioner 
to provide a telehealth service, without being licensed in the State in 
which the originating site is located, Medicare would make payment for 
the telehealth service. However, when State law precludes an out-of-
State practitioner from delivering a telehealth service, Medicare would 
not pay for that service.
    We clarify that for payment purposes, the site of service for the 
telehealth service is the location of the physician or practitioner at 
the distant site. Given that section 1834(m) of the Act specifies that 
payment to the physician or practitioner at the distant site must be 
equal to the amount that would have been paid without the use of 
telehealth, it is appropriate to use the Geographic Practice Cost Index 
(GPCI) relevant to the distant site. However, our determination of the 
distant site physician's or practitioner's location as the site of 
service for Medicare payment is not intended to make a comment 
regarding the scope of medical practice.
    Comment: One consortium believes that the proposed rule would not 
permit the physician or practitioner at the distant site to bill for a 
telehealth service when State or Federal law exempts a physician or 
practitioner from being licensed in the State in which he or she is 
currently employed. The consortium is a Federal telemedicine 
demonstration project that would be permitted to use store and forward 
telecommunications technologies in delivering telehealth services. The 
commenter notes that the State of Alaska exempts physicians or 
practitioners who are part of the military or Public Health Service 
that provide health care services in Alaska from its licensure 
requirements. Further, the commenter stated that Federal law authorizes 
health care professionals who are members of the military providing 
services for the Department of Defense to practice in any State 
provided the professionals are licensed in a State, the District of 
Columbia or other specific locations. The commenter also noted that 
current Medicare manual instructions specify that when a physician in a 
Federal hospital provides services to the public generally as a 
community institution, he or she may be considered as meeting the 
statutory definition of a physician even though he or she may not have 
a license to practice in the State in which he or she is employed.
    Response: The telehealth provision does not affect State or Federal 
legislation providing certain physicians or practitioners an exemption 
from State licensure. When Federal or State law exempts a physician or 
practitioner from State licensure, then the physician or practitioner 
at the distant site is permitted to provide a telehealth service 
regardless of whether he or she is licensed within the State where he 
or she is employed.
    Comment: One organization requested that Sec. 414.65(a)(2) be 
revised to specify for what services the physician or practitioner who 
presents the patient could bill. The commenter believes that when the 
physician at the distant site determines that it is medically necessary 
for another practitioner to assist in providing the telehealth service, 
the telepresenter should be compensated. The commenter suggested that a 
telepresenter be permitted to bill for a consultation or confirmatory 
consultation.
    Response: On the day the telehealth service occurs, the 
telepresenter may bill and receive payment for services that are not 
telehealth services that he or she would otherwise be allowed to 
provide under Medicare. A telepresenter, for example, a nurse 
practitioner, could bill for and be paid for a medically necessary 
office, outpatient or inpatient visit preceding or subsequent to a 
telehealth service. Additionally, the telepresenter could be paid for 
other medically necessary services requested by the physician or 
practitioner at the distant site. However, the physician at the distant 
site may not share any portion of the telehealth payment with the 
telepresenter or referring practitioner. We do not agree that 
Sec. 414.65(a)(2) should be changed to specify the services for which a 
telepresenter can and cannot bill. This section implements payment for 
telehealth services only, and the Act does not provide for a payment to 
the telepresenter for telehealth services.
    Comment: Many organizations and individual commenters expressed 
overall support for the revision of Medicare payment for telehealth. 
Specifically, commenters mentioned removal of the fee sharing 
requirement, relaxed conditions of payment, and the addition of non-MSA 
counties to the geographic areas eligible for telehealth under 
Medicare. The commenters noted that these changes will have a positive 
effect on health care delivery and will help provide services to areas 
where specialty care is sparse.
    Response: We agree that the proposed revisions to Medicare 
telehealth coverage and payment policies, as authorized by the BIPA, 
remove significant barriers for physicians and practitioners wishing to 
provide telehealth services.
    Comment: One commenter indicated that the cost of collecting the 
coinsurance for the originating site facility fee could easily exceed 
the amount the facility would collect from the beneficiary. The 
commenter encouraged us to permit originating sites to waive the 
coinsurance in those situations where the telehealth facility charge is 
the only amount to be billed to the beneficiary.
    Response: We do not have the authority to eliminate the coinsurance 
requirement outright for telehealth originating sites. However, 
Medicare permits the waiver of coinsurance for limited situations. 
Section 5220 of the Medicare Carriers Manual specifies that physicians 
and suppliers may waive billing for or collection of coinsurance or 
deductibles for indigent patients or when the physicians' or suppliers' 
cost of billing or collecting exceeds or is disproportionate to the 
amounts to be collected. Documentation must be sufficient to support 
that costs for billing the beneficiary exceed or are disproportionate 
to the amount collected from the beneficiary. In this instance, the 
amount collected refers to 20 percent of the originating site 
telehealth facility fee.
    We clarify that when the patient owes additional coinsurance to the 
originating site for other Medicare services, billing for the 
telehealth facility fee coinsurance amount may be consolidated with the 
coinsurance amount owed for those services. We believe that this would 
resolve the commenter's concern that the cost for billing and or 
collecting the coinsurance for a single facility fee could exceed or be 
disproportionate to the amount collected from the beneficiary.
    Comment: One association submitted a number of comments that have 
payment implications for the Federally qualified health center benefit.
    Response: These issues involve specific aspects of the Federally 
qualified health center payment methodology and are beyond the scope of 
this provision. We will take these comments into consideration in 
formulating future instructions for payment implications on FQHCs.

Result of Evaluation of Comments

    We are implementing this provision as stated above.

G. Indian Health Service

    The Indian health care system provides primary health care to many 
American Indian and Alaska Native Medicare beneficiaries. This system 
consists of programs operated by a Federal agency, the Indian Health

[[Page 55285]]

Service (IHS), and Federally funded programs operated by Indian tribes, 
tribal organizations, and urban Indian organizations (as those terms 
are defined in section 4 of the Indian Health Care Improvement Act). 
These programs deliver a range of clinical and preventive health 
services to their beneficiaries through a network of facilities 
including hospitals and outpatient clinics. Programs operated in IHS-
owned or leased facilities, by IHS or by tribes or tribal 
organizations, are considered ``Federal providers'' by Medicare. 
Sections 1814(c) and 1835(d) of the Act generally prohibit payment to 
Federal providers, subject to exceptions contained in section 1880 of 
the Act for these IHS facilities. Before enactment of the BIPA, the 
exception in section 1880 of the Act was applicable only to IHS owned 
or leased hospitals, provider-based clinics, and skilled nursing 
facilities (regardless of whether the entity is tribally operated). The 
exception did not permit Medicare to pay for services furnished by IHS 
owned or leased free-standing outpatient clinics or to pay any IHS 
owned or leased facilities for services by physicians and other 
practitioners paid under a fee schedule.
    Effective July 1, 2001, section 432 of the BIPA extends the 
exception in section 1880 of the Act to permit Medicare payments to 
hospitals and outpatient clinics (provider-based or free-standing), 
operated by the IHS or by a tribe or tribal organization, for services 
furnished by physicians and specified non-physician practitioners in or 
at the direction of the hospital or outpatient clinic. Payments for 
these services are made to the hospital or outpatient clinic, not to 
the physician or other practitioner. These payments are subject to the 
same situations, terms, and conditions as would apply if the services 
were furnished in, or at the direction of, a hospital or outpatient 
clinic that is not operated by the IHS or by a tribe or tribal 
organization. The payments include incentive payments for physicians 
furnishing covered physicians' services in rural or urban health 
professional shortage areas (HPSAs) if the usual HPSA criteria are met. 
(For further information see section 1833 of the Act and Sec. 414.42 of 
our regulations.) Payments will not be made under these provisions to 
the extent that Medicare is otherwise paying for the same services 
under other provisions (for example, as part of a bundled payment, or 
if a tribal outpatient clinic continues to bill as a Federally 
qualified health center (FQHC)).
    We have added a new Sec. 410.46 to our regulations to reflect this 
new statutory provision. Due to the statutory effective date of July 1, 
2001, we implemented this BIPA provision through program memorandum 
instructions.

Result of Evaluation of Comments

    We received no comments on the statutory requirement to pay Indian 
Health Service and tribal hospitals and clinics for the services of 
physicians and other practitioners under Medicare fee schedules.

H. Pathology Services

    The November 2, 1999 final rule (64 FR 59380) provided that, for 
services furnished on or after January 1, 2001, carriers would no 
longer pay claims to independent laboratories under the physician fee 
schedule for the technical component (TC) of physician pathology 
services for hospital inpatients. Before that rule, independent 
laboratories could bill the carrier under the physician fee schedule 
for the TC of a physician pathology service furnished to a hospital 
inpatient. Also, under that rule, independent laboratories would still 
have been able to bill and receive payment for the TC of physician 
pathology services furnished to patients who are not hospital 
inpatients.
    Section 542 of the BIPA requires the Medicare carrier to continue 
to pay for the TC of physician pathology services when an independent 
laboratory furnishes these services to an inpatient or outpatient of a 
covered hospital. The BIPA provisions apply to TC services furnished 
during the 2-year period beginning January 1, 2001 and continuing 
through December 31, 2002. We informed the carriers and the 
intermediaries of this provision through program memorandum AB-01-47, 
which was issued in March 2001. This program memorandum requested the 
carriers to notify independent laboratories of this provision in their 
next regularly scheduled bulletin and to place this bulletin on their 
Internet web site. In the absence of further legislation, the policy of 
the November 1999 final rule will take effect for the TC of physician 
pathology services furnished to hospital patients after December 31, 
2002. We have revised Sec. 415.130 to conform to the statutory change 
in section 542 of BIPA concerning the payment for the TC of physician 
pathology services.

Result of Evaluation of Comments

    We have received no comments on this issue.

IV. Five-Year Review of Work Relative Value Units Under the 
Physician Fee Schedule; Responses to Public Comments on the Five-
Year Review of Work Relative Value Units

A. Scope of Five-Year Review

    This final rule includes the culmination of the 5-year review of 
work RVUs required by statute. The work RVUs affected by this review 
will be effective for services furnished beginning January 1, 2002.
    In our June 8, 2001 proposed notice (66 FR 31028), we explained the 
process used to conduct the 5-year review of work RVUs. During the 
comment period we received approximately 35 public comments on 
approximately 900 codes. After review by our medical staff, we 
forwarded all of the comments we received concerning potentially 
misvalued services to the AMA's Specialty Society Relative Value Update 
Committee (RUC).
    The RUC submitted work RVU recommendations for all of the codes we 
forwarded with the exception of the anesthesia codes and conscious 
sedation codes. We analyzed all of the RUC recommendations and 
evaluated both the recommended work RVUs and the rationale for the 
recommendations. If we had concerns about the application of a 
particular methodology, but thought the recommended work RVUs were 
reasonable, we verified that the recommended work RVUs were appropriate 
by using alternative methodologies. (For additional information on the 
review process, please see the proposed notice published June 8, 2001.)

B. Review of Comments (Includes Table 4 Work RVU Refinements of 5-Year 
Review Codes Commented on in Response to the June 8, 2001 Proposed 
Notice)

    During the comment period for our June 8, 2001 proposed notice, 
commenters generally supported our proposed changes. We received more 
than 125 comments on approximately 39 specific codes plus all the 
anesthesia services. The majority of these comments addressed the 
gastrointestinal endoscopy codes and anesthesia services.
    We convened a multispecialty panel of physicians to assist us in 
the review of the comments. The comments we did not submit for panel 
review are discussed at the end of this section. The panel was 
moderated by our medical staff and consisted of:
     Clinicians representing the commenting specialties, based 
on our determination of those specialties which

[[Page 55286]]

are most identified with the services in question. Although commenting 
specialties were welcomed to observe the entire refinement process, 
they were only involved in the discussion of those services for which 
they were invited to participate.
     Primary care clinicians nominated by the American Academy 
of Family Physicians and the American College of Physicians and 
American Society of Internal Medicine.
     Four carrier medical directors.
     Four clinicians with practices in related specialties who 
had knowledge of the services under review.
    We submitted 6 codes for evaluation by the panel. The panel 
discussed the work RVUs involved in each procedure under review in 
comparison to the work RVUs associated with other services on the fee 
schedule. We assembled a set of reference services and asked each panel 
member to compare the clinical aspects for the services they believed 
were incorrectly valued to one or more of the reference services. In 
compiling the reference set, we attempted to include--(1) services that 
are commonly performed whose work RVUs are not controversial; (2) 
services that span the entire work spectrum from the easiest to the 
most difficult; and (3) at least three services performed by each of 
the major specialties so that each specialty would be represented. The 
reference set listed over 300 services. Group members were encouraged 
to make comparisons to these reference services. The intent of the 
panel process was to capture each participant's independent judgement 
based on the discussion and his or her clinical experience. Following 
each discussion, each participant rated the work for the procedure. 
Ratings were individual and confidential; there was no attempt to 
achieve consensus among the panel members.
    We then analyzed the ratings based on a presumption that the RVUs 
in the proposed notice were correct. To overcome this presumption, the 
inaccuracy of the proposed RVUs had to be apparent to the broad range 
of physicians participating in each panel.
    Ratings of work were analyzed for consistency among the groups 
represented on each panel. We used statistical tests to determine 
whether there was enough agreement among the groups on the panel, and 
whether the agreed-upon RVUs were significantly different from the 
proposed RVUs published in the June 8, 2001 proposed notice. We did not 
modify the RVUs unless there was a clear indication for a change. If 
there was agreement across groups for change, but the groups did not 
agree on what the new RVUs should be, we eliminated the outlier group, 
and looked for agreement among the remaining groups as the basis for 
new RVUs. We used the same methodology in analyzing the ratings that we 
first used in the refinement process for the 1993 fee schedule. The 
statistical tests we used are described in detail in the November 25, 
1992 final rule (57 FR 55938).
    Our decision to convene a multispecialty refinement panel of 
physicians and to apply the statistical tests referred to above was 
based on our need to balance the interests of those who commented on 
the work RVUs against the redistributive effects that would occur in 
other specialties. Of the 6 codes reviewed by the multispecialty panel, 
all were the subject of requests for increased values.
    We also received comments that we did not submit to the panels for 
a variety of reasons. These comments are discussed later in this 
section. Of the proposed codes that were reviewed, 3 increased, and 3 
were not changed.

Table 4.--Work Relative Value Unit Refinements of Five-Year Review 
Codes Commented on in Response to the June 8, 2001 Proposed Notice

    Table 4 lists the codes reviewed during the 5-year review on which 
we received comments. This table includes the following information:
     CPT/HCPCS Code. This is the CPT or alphanumeric HCPCS code 
for a service.
     Modifier. A modifier-26 is shown if the work RVUs 
represent the professional component of the service.
     Description. This is an abbreviated version of the 
narrative description of the code.
     Proposed Work RVUs. This column includes the work RVUs 
proposed in the June 8, 2001 proposed notice for each reviewed code.
     Requested Work RVUs. This column identifies the work RVUs 
requested by the commenters. If the commenters requested different 
RVUs, the table lists the highest requested RVUs. For some codes we 
received recommendations for an increase but no specific RVUs were 
recommended.
     RUC Recommendation. This column identifies the work RVUs 
recommended by the RUC if the RUC made a specific work value 
recommendation as part of its comments on the June 8, 2001 proposed 
notice.
     2002 Work RVUs. This column contains the 2002 work RVUs.
     Basis for Decision. This column indicates whether:
    + The recommendations of the multispecialty refinement panel were 
the basis upon which we determined that the proposed work RVUs 
published June 8, 2001 should be retained (indicator 1).
    + A new value emerged from our analysis of the refinement panel 
ratings (indicator 2).
    + A new or retained value came from review of the comment(s) 
received (indicator 3).
    + A new value came from the need to make a rank-order change to 
maintain or correct existing relationships among services (indicator 
4).
    + A value is retained and the code has been referred to the RUC 
(indicator 5).
    + There is no change in value but we have adjusted the global 
period (indicator 6).

C. Discussion of Comments by Clinical Area

    In this section, we discuss the comments we received on the 39 
codes of the more than 900 codes for which we sought public comment. 
For the codes for which we did not receive any comments, our proposed 
RVUs are being made final. We have categorized the comments into the 
same clinical areas we used in the June 8, 2001 notice. Within each 
clinical area, listed below, we discuss the comments received in CPT 
code order.
1. Vascular Surgery
    Comment: The American Association for Vascular Surgery and the 
Society for Vascular Surgery expressed appreciation that we agreed with 
the RUC recommendations for work RVUs for the vascular surgery codes 
reviewed under the second 5-year review. However, it indicated that 
some of these services may still be undervalued. It will be reviewing 
these services as well as a small number of vascular surgery services 
that were not submitted this year and possibly submit these under the 
next 5-year review.
    Response and final decision: We will finalize the RVUs for the 
vascular surgery codes as proposed.
2. General Surgery and Colon and Rectal Surgery

Family 2  Lymphadenectomy

    Comment: The American College of Surgery (ACS) was supportive of 
the work performed by CMS medical officers to ensure that rank order 
anomalies were eliminated from 6 families of codes where acceptance of 
the RUC recommendations would create distortions in family work value 
relativity and the rest of the physician fee schedule.
    The ACS pointed out a typographical error in the proposed notice. 
For Family 2 Lymphadenectomy, CMS disagreed with the RUC, and stated 
that the median survey result of 13 is appropriate for CPT code 38745. 
The ACS commented that the survey median is actually 13.10. The 
correction of this error would lead to increases for related family 
codes 38740 (from 10.02 to 10.03) and 38760 (from 12.94 to 12.95).
    Response and final decision: We agree with the commenter's response 
and will adjust the work values for CPT code 38740 to 10.03; for CPT 
code 38745 to 13.10; and for CPT code 38760 to 12.95.

Family 3  Lymph Nodes and Lymphatic Channels--Incision/Excision

    Comment: The American Academy of Otolaryngology recommended that 
CMS change the global surgical period of CPT code 38510 from 90 days to 
10 days following the RUC survey data for this CPT code. It alleges 
that there were no postoperative visits beyond 10 days associated with 
this procedure for the relative work established.
    Response: The RUC valued this service based on the fact that it is 
typically furnished to an outpatient. The value of a hospital discharge 
day was subtracted from the median survey value. The median survey 
value is based on one followup office visit. We believe there is merit 
to the group's point and will change the global period from 90 days to 
10 days.
3. Thoracic Surgery
    Comment: The Society of Thoracic Surgeons expressed appreciation 
that we had accepted the RUC recommendations for corrections to work 
values of many thoracic and cardiac procedures.
    Response and final decision: We will finalize the RVUs for these 
codes as proposed.
4. Orthopedic Surgery
    We received no comments on these codes. Therefore, we will finalize 
all of the proposed work RVUs for the orthopedic surgery codes. We 
would also note that, in the June rule, we proposed to correct a rank 
order anomaly by increasing values for CPT code 27286. This code, 
however, was inadvertently omitted from the table and addendum; it is 
included in Table 4 and Addendum A of this final rule.
5. Ophthalmology
    We received no comments on these codes. Therefore, we will finalize 
all of the proposed work RVUs for the ophthalmology codes.
6. Urology
    We received no comments on these codes. Therefore, we will finalize 
all of the proposed work RVUs for the urology codes.
7. Obstetrics/Gynecology

CPT Code 38571, Laparoscopy, Surgical; With Bilateral Total Pelvic 
Lympadenectomy

    Comment: The Society of Gynecologic Oncologists (SGO) stated that, 
while we had proposed an increase for CPT code 38572, an increase was 
not proposed for CPT code 38571. The SGO believes that both of these 
codes are undervalued based on insufficient work RVUs being assigned 
for the laparoscopy with bilateral total pelvic lymphadenectomy 
procedure, which is common to both codes. It requested that a 
proportional increase in work RVUs be made for CPT 38571 as well.
    Response: We accepted the RUC recommendation that no increase be 
made in the work RVU for this service based on the lack of compelling 
evidence to support an increase, and we had proposed retaining the 
current work RVU for this service. However, based on the comments 
received, we referred this code to a multispecialty refinement panel 
for review.
    Final decision: As a result of our analysis of the multispecialty 
refinement panel ratings, we are increasing the work RVUs for CPT code 
38571 to 14.68 work RVUs.

CPT Code 56515, Destruction of Lesion(s), Vulva; Extensive, Any Method

    Comment: For CPT code 56515, SGO disagreed with the rationale that 
CPT codes 56515 and 46924 have comparable physician and intraservice 
work time. It indicated that CPT code 56515 involves lasering a much 
larger area; therefore, the amount of intraservice time and the number 
of postoperative visits can be significantly higher.
    Response: We had accepted the RUC recommendation of 2.76 work RVUs 
for this code which was lower than the 3.625 which had been requested 
by the specialty. Based on the comments received, we referred this code 
to a multispecialty refinement panel for review.
    Final decision: As a result of our analysis of the refinement panel 
ratings, we are retaining the work RVU of 2.76.

CPT Code 57500, Biopsy, Single or Multiple, or Excision of Lesion, With 
or Without Fulguration (Separate Procedure)

    Comment: In addition to comments on the 2 codes referenced above, 
SGO also recommended that, while CPT code 57500 was not considered part 
of the 5-year review, this gender-specific code be forwarded to the RUC 
for evaluation. It believes the amount of physician time and level of 
pre- and postoperative work for this procedure is similar to that for 
the male-specific procedures of CPT

[[Page 55289]]

code 54100 (Biopsy of penis (separate procedure)), and CPT code 54505 
(Biopsy of testis, incisional (separate procedure)), and thus the 
physician work for CPT code 57500 should be increased.
    Response and final decision: We will refer this code to the RUC for 
review.
    Comment: In our June 8, 2001 proposed notice, we also stated that 
we referred three female-specific procedure codes that appeared to be 
misvalued to the RUC for review. As part of its comments on the 
proposed notice, and in response to our request to review these 
services, the RUC has provided recommendations on work RVUs for the 
three codes as follows:
     CPT code 56605, Biopsy of vulva or perineum (separate 
procedure); one lesion.
    The RUC stated that this code was reviewed during the first 5-year 
review and was increased at that time to double the original work RVU 
for CPT code 56605. While the current work RVU for this code is less 
than CPT code 54100, Biopsy of penis (WRVU 1.90), the structure of CPT 
code 56605 allows additional reporting when more than one lesion is 
biopsied, while the penile code (54100) may be only reported once, 
regardless of the number of biopsies. The RUC recommended that the 
current work RVU of 1.10 be maintained for CPT code 56605.
     CPT code 56810, Perineoplasty, repair of perineum, 
nonobsterical (separate procedure).
    The RUC indicated that the specialty stated that this service may 
be undervalued; however, perineoplasty is performed so rarely as a 
separate procedure that it would be difficult to obtain valid survey 
data to appropriately value this service. In addition, the specialty is 
currently considering CPT revisions to this family of codes and will 
review this issue at that time. The RUC recommended that the current 
work RVU of 4.13 be maintained for the service.
     CPT code 58100, Endometrial sampling (biopsy) with or 
without endocervical sampling (biopsy), without cervical dilation, any 
method (separate procedure).
    The RUC indicated that, based on a review of survey data, CPT code 
58100 is undervalued. The RUC compared this code to CPT code 55700 and 
determined that these 2 services are similar in time and intensity. The 
RUC also agreed that 58100 is more work than the reference procedure, 
CPT code 57505, and recommended an increase in the work RVU for CPT 
code 58100 to 1.53. The RUC also provided refinements to the practice 
expense inputs for this code.
    Response and final decision: We agree with the RUC recommendations 
for these three codes and will maintain the current work RVUs of 1.10 
for CPT code 56605 and 4.13 for CPT code 56810 and increase the work 
RVUs for CPT code 58100 to 1.53. Because the public has not had a 
chance to comment on these work RVUs, we will consider them to be 
interim and will accept comments on values for these 3 codes.
8. Gastroenterology
    In the June 8, 2001 proposed notice, we explained that, for the 
selected series of gastrointestinal endoscopy codes for the 5-year 
review, the RUC recommended increases in work RVUs for some of the 
codes and no change in work for other codes. While some of these 
endoscopy codes may be misvalued, we proposed to keep all work RVUs for 
gastrointestinal endoscopy codes unchanged. We also requested that the 
RUC perform a comprehensive review of all gastrointestinal endoscopy 
codes to ensure that all codes are properly valued and that no rank-
order anomalies within and across specialties are created or 
exacerbated.
    With respect to the RUC recommendation concerning permitting 
separate reporting and payment of conscious sedation codes 90141 and 
90142, we stated we would be reviewing data concerning this issue. Any 
proposal we would have concerning payment and reporting of conscious 
sedation codes would be the subject of future rulemaking.
    Comment: Many physicians and several medical organizations 
expressed concern about our decision to propose no changes for the 17 
endoscopy codes for which the RUC had recommended increases. The 
American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, the American College 
of Gastroenterology, and the American Gastroenterological Association 
provided an extensive discussion on each of the codes which we will 
summarize and respond to below.

CPT Code 43219, Esophagoscopy, Rigid or Flexible; With Insertion of 
Plastic Tube or Stent

    The RUC recommended an increase in work RVUs from 2.8 to 3.18 for 
CPT code 43219 based upon the increased complexity of the condition of 
the patients receiving these stents. We proposed to maintain the 
current work RVUs due to our concerns about creating rank order 
anomalies in the fee schedule.
    Comment: We received comments regarding this code from several 
societies representing gastroenterologists who said that the 
incremental work involved with esophageal stent placement, presently 
valued at 1.21 RVUs, should be increased to 1.59 RVUs. The commenters 
agreed with CMS that several other stent codes were recently reviewed 
by the RUC and valued using the incremental work value of 1.21 RVUs. 
Increasing the incremental work value for CPT code 43219 to 1.59 RVUs 
would result in rank order anomalies for several codes. The commenters 
acknowledged that these anomalies resulted from the timing of the 5-
year review and the valuation of new stent placement codes. In spite of 
this, the commenters felt the RUC-recommended value was appropriate.
    Response: We feel the current work increment of 1.21 RVUs for 
placement of a stent over the base code 43200 is the appropriate value 
when assessing incremental work. We do not agree that the incremental 
work for stent placement should be increased to 1.59 RVUs. The upper GI 
endoscopy base CPT code 43235 has RVUs of 2.39 and CPT code 43256, 
upper GI endoscopy with stent placement (including predilation) has 
work RVUs of 4.35. This results in an incremental value of 1.96 RVUs 
which includes placement of the stent (1.21 RVUs) and predilation (0.75 
RVUs).
    Furthermore, diagnostic bronchoscopy, CPT code 31622, has work RVUs 
of 2.78, and bronchoscopy with tracheal dilation and placement of a 
tracheal stent (CPT code 31631) has an RVU of 4.37. This means that the 
incremental work value for tracheal dilation and stent placement is 
1.59 RVUs which is significantly less than the work increment of 1.96 
listed for CPT code 43256. We also note that CPT code 43219 will be 
billed with CPT code 43226 (dilation of the esophagus over a guidewire) 
which has an incremental value of 0.75 work RVUs. This means that when 
an esophageal stent is placed, the total work value is 1.59 (base code) 
plus 1.21 (stent placement) plus 0.75 (dilation) for a total of 3.55 
RVUs.
    More important, the incremental work of placing the stent is 1.96 
RVUs which is similar to the incremental work of placing a stent 
elsewhere in the GI tract and more than the incremental work of placing 
a stent in the trachea. Increasing the incremental work of placing an 
esophageal stent to 1.59 RVUs from 1.21 would create a significant rank 
order anomaly in the physician fee schedule because esophageal stent 
placement would be valued more than stent placement elsewhere.

[[Page 55290]]

    Lastly, we note that less work is required to place a plastic stent 
than to place a wire stent. Both, however, are coded using CPT code 
43219 and are valued similarly. For these reasons, we have decided to 
maintain the current RVUs of 2.80 for this code, and we would like the 
RUC to review all of the GI endoscopic stent placement codes and all of 
the GI endoscopic dilation codes simultaneously. Because these services 
are performed by gastroenterologists and various surgical specialties 
(general surgery, thoracic surgery, otolaryngology, and colorectal 
surgery), the RUC should obtain input from all specialties performing 
these services.

CPT Code 43239, Upper Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Including Esophagus, 
Stomach, and Either the Duodenum and/or Jejunum as Appropriate, With 
Biopsy, Single or Multiple

    The RUC recommended an increase in work RVUs from 2.69 to 2.87 
based on an increase in the number of biopsies obtained during each 
procedure. The RUC also stated that technological advances allowing for 
greater precision and detail in finding abnormalities have increased 
the complexity of this service. The RUC also stated that technological 
advances have allowed results to be reported more quickly which 
increases the postservice work because biopsy information and treatment 
guidance are conveyed to the patient the same day as the procedure. We 
disagreed, and in the June rule we proposed to maintain the current 
work RVUs.
    Comment: We received comments from several societies representing 
gastroenterologists and the following concerns were expressed: First, 
they did not feel that the work of performing biopsy procedures at 
different sites in the GI tract was the same. They commented that 
biopsy of lesions in different anatomic sites required different 
amounts of work. Second, they felt that even though CPT code 43239 was 
used to report both single and multiple biopsies, the typical patient 
requires multiple biopsies.
    Response: We reviewed these comments and compared the intraservice 
time for this procedure to other endoscopic biopsy procedures and we 
have decided to accept the RUC recommendations for this code. However, 
we are making this value interim. Please see the discussion under CPT 
code 45380 regarding this issue.

CPT Code 43244, Upper Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Including Esophagus, 
Stomach, and Either the Duodenum and/or Jejunum as Appropriate; With 
Band Ligation of Esophageal and or Gastric Varices; CPT Code 43255, 
Upper Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Including Esophagus, Stomach, and 
Either the Duodenum and/or Jejunum as Appropriate; With Control of 
Bleeding, Any Method

    The RUC recommended an increase in work RVUs for CPT code 43255 
from 4.4 to 4.82 work RVUs, based on the use of new technology, such as 
lasers, to control bleeding. The RUC also recommended an increase in 
work RVUs for CPT code 43244 from 4.59 to 5.05 RVUs, based on the 
increased number of bands typically used to treat esophageal varices. 
We disagreed and proposed to maintain the current work RVUs.
    Comment: We received comments from several societies representing 
gastroenterologists and the following concerns were expressed: First, 
they felt that we had incorrectly determined that these two services 
should be valued identically because the RUC stated that they were 
``similar'' in terms of work. Second, although they acknowledged that 
the use of cautery to control bleeding is not new, they said that the 
service is undervalued irrespective of which method is used to control 
bleeding.
    Response: We reviewed these comments and compared the intraservice 
time to other similar procedures and have decided to accept the RUC 
recommendations for the above CPT codes.

CPT Code 43247, Upper Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Including Esophagus, 
Stomach, and Either the Duodenum and/or Jejunum as Appropriate; With 
Removal of Foreign Body

    The RUC recommended an increase in work RVUs for this CPT code from 
3.39 to 3.59 work RVUs, based on increased complexity of patients 
undergoing this procedure with a concomitant increase in risk of 
morbidity. We disagreed and proposed to maintain the current work RVUs.
    Comment: We received comments from several societies representing 
gastroenterologists with the following concerns: First, they felt the 
increase in the work RVU for this procedure was justified because the 
procedure is usually performed under emergent conditions. Second, they 
did not favor uniform incremental work values for removal of foreign 
bodies from different sites in the gastrointestinal tract.
    Response: The RUC used a building-block approach to validate its 
acceptance of the median work RVUs from the survey. We do not believe 
the approach used by the RUC is valid for this CPT code. We compared 
this service to other similar services and continue to believe that the 
RUC recommendation does not represent the appropriate work increments 
for foreign body removal from various gastrointestinal sites. 
Furthermore, it would create a clear rank-order anomaly with CPT code 
43215 that should have an identical work increment. Therefore, we will 
maintain the current work RVUs for this procedure. If the RUC reviews 
this service again, we ask that all GI endoscopic services for removal 
of foreign bodies be included in the review.

CPT Code 43249, Upper Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Including Esophagus, 
Stomach, and Either the Duodenum and/or Jejunum as Appropriate; With 
Balloon Dilation

    The RUC recommended an increase from 2.9 to 3.35 work RVUs for this 
CPT code based on increased complexity of the condition of patients 
undergoing this procedure. We disagreed and proposed to maintain the 
current work RVUs.
    Comment: We received comments from several organizations 
representing gastroenterologists who felt the increase in incremental 
work value was justified based on their survey. However, they admitted 
that revaluing CPT code 43249 would create a rank order anomaly with 
CPT code 43220, an identical procedure. They stated that CPT code 43220 
is also undervalued.
    Response: The current work increment for ``balloon dilation of 
esophagus (less than 30mm diameter)'' is 0.51 RVUs for both the 
esophagus and upper gastrointestinal endoscopy families. Since this is 
the same procedure in both families, it is unclear why the work should 
be increased for the upper gastrointestinal family only. This would 
create a rank-order anomaly. We have decided to maintain the current 
work RVUs for CPT code 43249. We plan to ask the RUC to review the 
incremental work RVUs for both CPT code 43249 and CPT code 43220.

CPT Code 43259, Upper Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Including Esophagus, 
Stomach, and Either the Duodenum and/or Jejunum as Appropriate; With 
Endoscopic Ultrasound Examination

    The RUC recommended an increase in work RVUs from 4.59 to 8.59 
based on the complexity of the equipment and the skill and judgement 
required. The

[[Page 55291]]

RUC also noted that the survey results supported this procedure as 
requiring more work than CPT code 43260--diagnostic endoscopic 
retrograde cholangio-pancreatography (ERCP)--which has 5.96 work RVUs.
    Comment: We received comments from several societies representing 
gastroenterologists who agreed with us that the RUC values for the new 
endoscopic ultrasound codes (EUS) were inconsistent with the value 
recommended by the RUC for CPT code 43259. They felt that new survey 
data should have been used by the RUC when valuing CPT code 43259 
instead of the current incremental work values used by the RUC for the 
5-year review.
    Response: The RUC used the following building-block methodology to 
arrive at its recommendation for 43259--1) The RUC added 1.5 work RVUs, 
which is approximately 75 percent of the difference between the RUC 
recommendation from the last 5-year review (6.11 work RVUs) and the 
work RVUs that we assigned (4.0 work RVUs); (2) the RUC then added 2.2 
work RVUs, which are the work RVUs of CPT code

93312  (Echocardiography, Transesophageal, Real Time With Image 
Documentation (2D) (With or Without M-Mode Recording); Including Probe 
Placement, Image Acquisition, Interpretation and report)

    Not only do we disagree with the RUC methodology for this 
recommendation, but we also note that the RUC has used the current work 
RVUs for CPT code 43259 to value not only other gastrointestinal 
transendoscopic ultrasound procedures but also many transendoscopic 
ultrasound guided biopsy codes. We also note that the RUC has recently 
re-evaluated CPT code 43231, Esophagoscopy, rigid or flexible; with 
endoscopic ultrasound examination, and recommended much lower RVUs for 
the incremental work of the ultrasound examination. Therefore, 
accepting the RUC recommendation for this code would be inconsistent 
with the RUC's reevaluation of CPT code 43231, would invalidate the 
work valuation of many other gastrointestinal endoscopy codes, and 
would create numerous rank-order anomalies. Therefore, we recommend 
that the RUC review CPT code 43259 along with all the other endoscopic 
ultrasound examination codes and all the transendoscopic ultrasound 
guided biopsy codes.

CPT Code 43263, Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangio-pancreatography (ERCP); 
With Pressure Measurement of Sphincter of Oddi (Pancreatic Duct or 
Common Bile Duct)

CPT Code 43265, Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangio-pancreatography (ERCP) 
With Endoscopic Retrograde Destruction, Lithotripsy of Stone(s), Any 
Method

CPT Code 43269, Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangio-pancreatography (ERCP); 
With Endoscopic Retrograde Removal of Foreign Body and/or Change of 
Tube or Stent

    The RUC recommended an increase in work RVUs from 6.19 to 7.29 for 
CPT code 43263 based on the need to measure pressures in both the 
biliary and pancreatic sphincters, as well as the need for prolonged 
postoperative monitoring.
    The RUC recommended an increase in work RVUs from 8.9 to 10.02 for 
CPT code 43265 based on a rank-order anomaly with code 43264 because 
this procedure is considered to be more time-consuming and complex than 
CPT code 43264.
    The RUC recommended an increase in work RVUs from 6.04 to 8.21 for 
CPT code 43269 based on a rank-order anomaly between this code and CPT 
code 43268.
    Comment: We received comments on these three codes from several 
organizations representing gastroenterologists. It was their position 
that these codes were commonly performed, undervalued procedures and 
that the survey data the organizations provided justify the increase in 
RVUs. We disagreed and proposed to maintain the current work RVUs for 
these three codes.
    Response: We have reviewed the codes and compared their 
intraservice times to other similar procedures and have decided to 
accept the RUC recommendations.

CPT Code 44388, Colonoscopy Through Stoma; Diagnostic With or Without 
Collection of Specimen(s) by Brushing or Washing (Separate Procedure)

CPT Code 44389, Colonoscopy Through Stoma; With Biopsy, Single or 
Multiple

CPT Code 44390, Colonoscopy Through Stoma; With Removal of Foreign Body

CPT Code 44391, Colonoscopy Through Stoma; With Control of Bleeding, 
any Method

CPT Code 44392, Colonoscopy Through Stoma; With Removal of Tumor(s), 
Polyp(s), or Other Lesion(s) by Hot Biopsy Forceps or Bipolar Cautery

CPT Code 44393, Colonoscopy Through Stoma: With Ablation of Tumor(s), 
Polyp(s), or Other Lesion(s) Not Amenable to Removal by Hot Biopsy 
Forceps, Bipolar Cautery or Snare Technique

    These 6 codes are in the same family, and the RUC recommended an 
increase for each code in this family primarily because it felt that 
the base CPT code, 44388, should be valued the same as CPT code 45378, 
diagnostic colonoscopy, at 3.7 work RVUs. The RUC also recommended that 
the values for the other codes in this family be increased to maintain 
their relativity to CPT code 44388. We disagreed and proposed to 
maintain the current work RVUs for all codes in this family.
    Comment: We received comments from several societies representing 
gastroenterologists who commented that, although performing a 
colonoscopy through a stoma involves less physician work than 
performing a standard colonoscopy, they believed that performing a 
colonoscopy through a stoma is more technically challenging than 
performing a standard colonoscopy.
    Response: We disagree with valuing the performance of a colonoscopy 
through a stoma identically to performing a standard colonoscopy. We 
feel the proposed valuation creates a series of rank-order anomalies. 
Consequently, we will finalize our proposal to maintain the current 
RVUs for this family of codes. In addition to determining that the RUC 
recommendation for the base code 44388 was incorrect, we note that the 
RUC recommendations create increments of work for performance of 
``biopsy, single or multiple,'' ``control of bleeding, any method,'' 
``removal of tumors,'' and ``ablation of tumors'' during a colonoscopy 
through a stoma, which are inconsistent with the same increments for 
the complete colonoscopy family of codes that begins

[[Page 55292]]

with code 45378. We note that, in addition to gastroenterologists, 
general surgeons and colorectal surgeons perform these procedures. 
Therefore, if the RUC reconsiders the work values of these codes, we 
believe that information should be obtained from all physicians who 
perform these services.

CPT Code 45380, Colonoscopy, Flexible Proximal to Splenic Flexure; With 
Biopsy, Single or Multiple

    The RUC recommended an increase in work RVUs from 3.98 to 4.44 for 
this CPT code, based on the increased number of biopsies generally 
taken during this procedure and the increased difficulty in removing 
these polyps. We disagreed and proposed to maintain the current work 
RVUs for this service.
    Comment: We received comments from several societies representing 
gastroenterologists who commented that work increments for performing 
biopsies at different sites within the gastrointestinal tract are 
different. Furthermore, the societies believe that the incremental work 
of biopsy procedures performed by different specialties (for example, 
gastrointestinal endoscopic biopsies and tracheobronchial endoscopic 
biopsies) need not be valued identically. They also note that even 
though this code is reported for both single and multiple biopsies, the 
``typical'' patient usually has multiple biopsies performed.
    Response: We have reviewed these comments and compared the 
intraservice time of this code to the intraservice time of other 
similar procedures. We have decided to accept the RUC recommendation. 
However, CMS believes the best approach to accurately value 
gastrointestinal endoscopy biopsy procedures is to evaluate all the 
biopsy procedures in the gastrointestinal tract. This would provide the 
opportunity to establish the correct incremental work RVUs and avoid 
creating rank-order anomalies. Therefore, we will make the work values 
for CPT code 43239 (as indicated earlier) and 45380, interim until we 
receive further recommendations from the RUC regarding the entire 
spectrum of gastrointestinal biopsy procedures.
9. Conscious Sedation
    Comment: The American Academy of Family Physicians indicated that 
the RUC has appointed an ad hoc workgroup to review the issue of 
conscious sedation, including identifying codes where conscious 
sedation is not inherently included as a component of the physician 
work. It recommended that, when the workgroup and RUC complete this 
review, we allow separate reporting and payment for CPT codes 90141 and 
90142 in conjunction with the identified codes. The AMA and the RUC 
also referred to the newly formed workgroup in their comments, and the 
AMA urged us to work with the RUC and the CPT to reach a solution on 
the coding and payment issues surrounding conscious sedation.
    Response and Final Decision: We welcome suggestions on this issue 
from both the coding and payment perspective. When the workgroup review 
of these issues is complete, we will evaluate any recommendations we 
receive for the development of any future proposals.
10. Pulmonary Medicine/Critical Care
    We received no comments on these codes. Therefore, we will finalize 
the proposed work RVUs for the pulmonary medicine and critical care 
codes.
11. Cardiology

CPT Code 93350, Transthoracic Echocardiography

    Comment: The American College of Cardiology expressed appreciation 
of our acceptance of the RUC recommendation to increase the work RVUs 
for this code.
    Response and Final Decision: We are finalizing the proposed RVUs 
for CPT code 93350 and maintaining the work values for the other 2 CPT 
codes, 32234 and 32235, as discussed in the proposed notice.
12. Pediatrics

CPT Code 36400 (Venipuncture Under Age 3 Years; Femoral, Jugular or 
Sagittal Sinus) and CPT Code 36405 (Venipuncture, Under Age 3 Years, 
Scalp Vein)

    Comment: The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) disagreed with 
our recommendations for CPT codes 36400 and 36405. The RUC recommended 
work RVUs of .38 and .32, respectively. We proposed that the work RVUs 
remain unchanged at .18 for each code. We do not believe it is 
appropriate to compare the work RVUs of a venipuncture to the work of 
an evaluation and management service. The AAP pointed out that the work 
involved in providing a venipuncture to a patient under age 3 is more 
intense than it has been in the past.
    Response: Based on the comments received, we referred this code to 
a multispecialty refinement panel for review.
    Final decision: As a result of our analysis of the multispecialty 
refinement panel ratings, we are increasing the work RVUs for CPT code 
36400 to 0.38 and also increasing the work RVUs for CPT code 36405 to 
0.31.
13. Pediatric Surgery

CPT Code 39503 (Repair, Neonatal Diaphragmatic Hernia, With or Without 
Chest Tube Insertion and With or Without Creation of Ventral Hernia) 
and CPT Code 49605 (Repair of Large Omphalacele or Gastroschisis; With 
or Without Prosthesis)

    Comment: The AAP and the American Pediatric Surgical Association 
(ASPA) recommend that codes 39503 (Repair, neonatal diaphragmatic 
hernia, with or without chest tube insertion and with or without 
creation of ventral hernia), and 49605 (Repair of large omphalacele or 
gastroschisis; with or without prosthesis) receive interim values of 95 
and 76, respectively, until the issue of critical care in the 
postoperative period is resolved. We had proposed to maintain the 
current work RVUs of 37.54 and 24.94, respectively, as interim 2002 
work values and asked the RUC to resubmit recommendations for work RVUs 
for CPT codes 39503 and 49605 with either a 000 or 010 global period. 
As an option, pending resolution of the critical care issue, the APSA 
recommended that the interim work values for CPT codes 39503 and 49605 
be 46.35 and 30.14, respectively.
    The RUC agreed that the physician work in the postoperative period 
caring for these seriously ill neonates was significant and required 
the services of both surgeon and the neonatologist. The RUC requests 
that CMS treat these codes in the same manner as the other 90-day 
global codes that include extensive postoperative care.
    Response: Upon further review, we agree with the RUC's 
recommendation and will establish the work values for CPT codes 39503 
and 49605 at 95 and 76 units, respectively.
14. Radiology

CPT Code 76090, Mammography; Unilateral and CPT Code 76091 Mammography; 
Bilateral

    Comment: The American College of Radiology (ACR) requested that CMS 
increase the work RVUs for unilateral mammography, that is, CPT code 
76090, from the proposed .70, to .93 and for bilateral mammography, 
that is, code 76091, from the proposed .87, to 1.10. The ACR believes 
these values, which are the median survey values, more accurately 
reflect the work involved with these two procedures. The ACR points out 
that there is a significant amount of physician time associated

[[Page 55293]]

with reviewing the results with these anxious patients and complying 
with the mandatory Mammography Quality Standards Act requirements.
    The ACR commented that the chart at 66 FR 31045 of the June 8, 2001 
proposed rule indicates that CPT code 76005 had a RUC recommendation of 
10.60. However, that column should read .60.
    The ACR also took exception to the requested work RVUs reported in 
the chart at 66 FR 31045 for codes 76065, 76090 and 76091. The chart 
displayed requested work RVUs of .60 for 76065, .64 for 76090, and .76 
for code 76091. The ACR asked that the chart be corrected to reflect 
the actual requested work RVUs for each code. These corrected values, 
based on the median survey values, are .70 for CPT code 76065, .93 for 
76090, and 1.10 for CPT code 76091.
    Response: Based on the comments received, we referred these codes 
to a refinement panel for review. We regret the error in the chart 
concerning the requested work RVUs.
    Final decision: As a result of our analysis of the multispecialty 
panel ratings, we are retaining the work RVU of 0.70 for CPT code 76090 
and 0.87 for CPT code 76091, the work RVUs we proposed in the June 8 
proposed rule.

CPT Code 76092, Screening Mammography, Bilateral Two View Film Study of 
Each Breast

    In addition, we had requested the RUC to review the work RVUs for 
code 76092 (Screening mammography, bilateral two view film study of 
each breast). In its comments on the June 8, 2001 proposed rule, the 
RUC indicated it had placed this issue on the September 2001 meeting 
agenda and would provide recommendations to us following that meeting. 
The September meeting had to be cancelled and the issues to be 
addressed at that meeting will be discussed at the first meeting early 
next year. Therefore, we are finalizing the current RVUs for this code.
15. Plastic Surgery
    We received no comments on these codes. Therefore, we will finalize 
the proposed work RVUs for the plastic surgery codes.

B. Other Comments

1. Anesthesia Services
    In our June 8, 2001 proposed rule (66 FR 31065), we stated that the 
American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) contended that the work of 
anesthesia services is undervalued and, based on discussions with the 
RUC, the ASA requested a 24 percent increase in anesthesia work. 
However, the RUC furnished no recommendation on anesthesia services; 
instead, it assigned to a newly created workgroup the responsibility 
for reviewing anesthesia services in the context of the physician fee 
schedule. We indicated that the ASA will be working with this workgroup 
on clinical issues, such as induction and postinduction intensity, and 
did not propose any changes to the anesthesia CF at this time to 
reflect the 5-year review of physician work for anesthesia services. 
However, we did indicate that we might make changes in response to 
recommendations the RUC may provide.
    Comment: Many individual anesthesiologists commented that their 
services are undervalued. The American Society of Anesthesiologists 
also commented that its services are undervalued and asked that we 
accept the results of the first RUC workgroup (weighted average 
increase of 26 percent on representative codes) and extrapolate this to 
all anesthesia codes. We also received letters from individuals 
indicating that anesthesia services are undervalued.
    In its comments, the RUC stated that it had not come to an 
agreement on extrapolating the results of the work of the 19 studied 
anesthesia codes to all anesthesia codes. The RUC agreed that the five 
quintiles for postinduction anesthesia and the examples associated with 
each quintile were appropriate. The RUC also examined the intensity 
values assigned to each quintile and made adjustments to the intensity 
values based on comparisons to evaluation and management codes and 
critical care services. It agreed to the following values--.224 for 
Level 1; .031 for Level 2; .051 for Level 3; .070 for Level 4; and .085 
for Level 5.
    The RUC approved the following intensity factors for the induction 
period--.067 for induction of general anesthesia; .067 for induction of 
spinal and epidural anesthesia; and .051 for induction of regional 
anesthesia.
    Although the RUC recommended acceptance of the building block work 
values for the 19 codes studied, it did not resolve issues related to 
how often anesthesiologists provide the retrobulbar bloc for code 00142 
and agreed that the distribution of postinduction time among the 
quintiles should be reviewed in more detail after it receives more 
input from surgical specialties.
    Response and final decision: The RUC has informed us that it will 
continue to look at anesthesia work beginning at its first meeting in 
CY 2002. We will review the RUC recommendation and address anesthesia 
work in next year's proposed physician fee schedule rule.
2. Spine Injection Procedures
    We received no comments on these codes. Therefore we will finalize 
the proposed work RVUs for the spine injection procedure codes.
3. Biofeedback
    We received no comments on these codes. Therefore, we will finalize 
the proposed work RVUs for the biofeedback codes.
4. Surgical Management of Burn Wounds
    We received no comments on these codes. Therefore, we will finalize 
the proposed work RVUs for the codes involving surgical management of 
burn wounds.
5. Transplantation
    We received no comments on these codes. Therefore, we will finalize 
the proposed work RVUs for the transplantation codes.
6. Arthroscopy Services
    We received no comments on these codes. Therefore, we will finalize 
the proposed work RVUs for the arthroscopy service codes.
7. Wheelchair Management
    We received no comments on these codes. Therefore, we will finalize 
the proposed work RVUs for the wheelchair management codes.
8. Psychological Testing
    We received no comments on these codes. Therefore, we will finalize 
the proposed work RVUs for the psychological testing codes.
9. Podiatric Services
    In our June 8, 2001 proposed notice (66 FR 31067), we stated the 
American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA) submitted 5 codes (trim 
skin lesions/trim nails) for review (11719, 11055, 11056, 11057, and 
G0127) and that the HCPAC requested we review our current utilization 
data to ensure that the original utilization assumptions were correct. 
The HCPAC recommended that the current review of data should be based 
on actual 1999 utilization data since these codes were not fully 
implemented until April 1, 1998. We stated that we would review the 
utilization data associated with the aforementioned codes to ensure the 
original assumptions are still correct and that we would publish our 
decision in the final rule.

[[Page 55294]]

    Comment: The APMA was pleased that we would review the utilization 
data; however, it indicated that the work RVUs should not be revised 
based on current utilization. It recommended that we accept the 
original RUC recommendations since these values were based on the 
results of surveys of practicing podiatrists that were considered and 
approved by the RUC.
    Response and final decision: Based on our review of the data and 
the APMA recommendation that we accept the original RUC recommended 
values, we are increasing the work values for these services as 
follows:
     CPT code 11719, Trimming of nondystrophic nails, any 
number, a work RVU of 0.17.
     CPT code 11055, Paring or cutting of benign hyperkeratotic 
lesion (for example, corn or callus) single lesion, a work RVU of 0.43.
     CPT code 11056, two to four lesions, a work RVU of 0.61.
    CPT code 11057, more than four lesions, a work RVU of 0.79 .
    For HCPCS code G0127, Trim nails, while we did not receive a RUC 
recommendation on this code (since we created the code), we are 
increasing the work RVU to 0.17 to be consistent with the increase made 
to CPT code 11719.

D. Other Issues

1. Critical Care Services in a Global Period
    The June 8, 2001 proposed rule included a discussion on critical 
care services (66 FR 31067-68). We stated that current Medicare policy 
allows separate payment to the surgeon for postoperative critical care 
services during the surgical global period only when the patient has 
suffered trauma or burns. If the surgeon provides critical care 
services during the global period, for reasons unrelated to the 
surgery, that is separately payable as well. However, the approach the 
RUC used for the 5-year review had previously been used to validate 
postoperative work. That approach compared the work of a postoperative 
intensive care unit visit by the surgeon to code 99291, Critical care, 
evaluation and management of the critically ill or critically injured 
patient, first 30-74 minutes, which is valued at 4.00 work RVUs, rather 
than comparing a level three subsequent hospital visit (code 99233), 
which is valued at 1.51 work RVUs).
    We indicated that valuing the surgeon's postoperative intensive 
care unit visits as critical care services had raised a number of 
issues that could require a change in payment policy to ensure that 
postoperative critical care is appropriately paid. In order to ensure 
that we make appropriate payments to physicians furnishing 
postoperative critical care services to Medicare beneficiaries, we 
specifically solicited information and comments on several questions 
and issues. We also proposed that the work RVUs for those surgical 
codes where any postoperative intensive care unit visits were valued as 
critical care remain interim, until we address the issues discussed 
above.
    Many individual physicians, specialty societies, and health benefit 
programs provided comments and addressed the points we had outlined in 
the proposed notice. We appreciate their responses and will carefully 
review this information as we determine whether to make a future 
proposal.
2. Budget Neutrality
    As explained in the proposed rule published June 8, 2001 (66 FR 
31068-69), section 1848(c)(2)(B)(ii)(II) of the Act requires that 
increases or decreases in RVUs may not cause the amount of expenditures 
for the year to differ by more than $20 million from what expenditures 
would have been in the absence of these changes. If this threshold is 
exceeded, we make across-the-board adjustments to preserve budget 
neutrality. Based on the proposed changes in work RVUs, we indicated 
that budget-neutrality adjustments would be required. We proposed to 
reduce the conversion factor to meet the budget neutrality requirement, 
rather than applying a reduction to all work RVUs. We also indicated 
that revisions in payment policies, including the establishment of 
interim and final RVUs for coding changes contained in a separate 
proposed rule, might result in additional budget-neutrality 
adjustments.
    Comment: The American Academy of Family Physicians, American 
College of Radiology, American College of Physicians, American Society 
for Internal Medicine, and the American Medical Association Specialty 
Society RVUs Update Committee indicated that they supported our 
proposal to maintain budget neutrality by adjusting the conversion 
factor.
    Response and final decision: We will proceed with our proposal to 
maintain budget neutrality by adjusting the conversion factor.

V. Refinement of Relative Value Units for Calendar Year 2002 and 
Responses to Public Comments on Interim Relative Value Units for 
2001

A. Summary of Issues Discussed Related to the Adjustment of Relative 
Value Units

    Section V.B of this final rule describes the methodology used to 
review the comments received on the RVUs for physician work and the 
process used to establish RVUs for new and revised CPT codes. Changes 
to codes on the physician fee schedule (Addendum B) are effective for 
services furnished beginning January 1, 2002.

B. Process for Establishing Work Relative Value Units for the 2002 Fee 
Schedule and Clarification of CPT Definitions

    Our November 1, 2000 final rule on the 2001 physician fee schedule 
(65 FR 65376) announced the final work RVUs for Medicare payment for 
existing procedure codes under the physician fee schedule and interim 
RVUs for new and revised codes. The RVUs contained in the rule applied 
to physician services furnished beginning January 1, 2001. We announced 
that we considered the RVUs for the interim codes to be subject to 
public comment under the annual refinement process. In this section, we 
summarize the refinements to the interim work RVUs that have occurred 
since publication of the November 2000 final rule and our establishment 
of the interim work RVUs for new and revised codes for the 2002 fee 
schedule.
1. Work Relative Value Unit Refinements of Interim and Related Relative 
Value Units

a. Methodology (Includes Table 5, Refinements of the 2001 Interim Work 
Relative Value Units)

    Although the RVUs in the November 2000 final rule were used to 
calculate 2001 payment amounts, we considered the RVUs for the new or 
revised codes to be interim. We accepted comments for a period of 60 
days. We received substantive comments from many individual physicians 
and several specialty societies on 52 CPT codes with interim work RVUs. 
Only comments on codes listed in Addendum C of the November 2000 final 
rule were considered.
    We used a process similar to the process used in 1997 to address 
substantive comments. (See the October 31, 1997 final rule on the 
physician fee schedule (62 FR 59084) for the discussion of refinement 
of CPT codes with interim work RVUs.) We convened

[[Page 55295]]

a multispecialty refinement panel of physicians to assist us in the 
review of the comments. The comments that we did not submit to panel 
review are discussed at the end of this section, as well as those 
comments that were reviewed by the panel. We invited representatives 
from each of the specialty societies from which substantive comments 
were received to attend a panel for discussion of the codes on which 
they had commented. The panel was moderated by our medical staff and 
consisted of the following voting members:
     One to two clinicians representing the commenting 
specialty or specialties, based upon our determination of those 
specialties which are most identified with the service(s) in question. 
Although commenting specialties were welcome to observe the entire 
refinement process, they were only involved in the discussion of those 
services for which they were invited to participate.
     Two primary care clinicians nominated by the American 
Academy of Family Physicians and the American Society of Internal 
Medicine.
     Four carrier medical directors.
     Four clinicians with practices in related specialties, who 
were expected to have knowledge of the services under review.
    The panel discussed the work involved in each procedure under 
review in comparison to the work associated with other services on the 
fee schedule. We assembled a set of reference services and asked the 
panel members to compare the clinical aspects of the work of services 
they believed were incorrectly valued to one or more of the reference 
services. In compiling the set, we attempted to include--(1) services 
that are commonly performed whose work RVUs are not controversial; (2) 
services that span the entire spectrum from the easiest to the most 
difficult; and (3) at least three services performed by each of the 
major specialties so that each specialty would be represented. The set 
contained approximately 300 services. Group members were encouraged to 
make comparisons to reference services. The intent of the panel process 
was to capture each participant's independent judgement based on the 
discussion and his or her clinical experience. Following each 
discussion, each participant rated the work for the procedure. Ratings 
were individual and confidential, and there was no attempt to achieve 
consensus among the panel members.
    We then analyzed the ratings based on a presumption that the 
interim RVUs were correct. To overcome this presumption, the inaccuracy 
of the interim RVUs had to be apparent to a broad range of physicians 
participating in the panel.
    Ratings of work were analyzed for consistency among the groups 
represented on the panel. In general, we used statistical tests to 
determine whether there was enough agreement among the groups of the 
panel, and whether the agreed-upon RVUs were significantly different 
from the interim RVUs published in Addendum C of the November 2000 
final rule. We did not modify the RVUs unless there was a clear 
indication for a change. If there was agreement across groups for 
change, but the groups did not agree on what the new RVUs should be, we 
eliminated the outlier group and looked for agreement among the 
remaining groups as the basis for new RVUs. We used the same 
methodology in analyzing the ratings that we first used in the 
refinement process for the 1993 fee schedule. The statistical tests 
were described in detail in the November 25, 1992 final rule (57 FR 
55938).
    Our decision to convene a multispecialty refinement panel of 
physicians and to apply the statistical tests described above was based 
on our need to balance the interests of those who commented on the work 
RVUs against the redistributive effects that would occur in other 
specialties. Of the 3 codes reviewed by the multispecialty panel, all 
were the subject of requests for increased values. Of the 3 interim 
work RVUs that were reviewed, 2 were increased and 1 was unchanged.
    We also received comments on RVUs that were interim for 2001, but 
which we did not submit to the panel for review for a variety of 
reasons. These comments and our decisions on those comments are 
discussed in further detail below.
    Table 5 lists the interim and related codes reviewed during the 
refinement process described in this section. This table includes the 
following information:

2. Interim 2001 Codes

Stenting Procedures--(CPT Codes 43256, 44370, 44379, 44383, 44397, 
45345, 45387, and 45342)

    We accepted the RUC recommended increase over the base code of 1.96 
work RVUs. Commenters suggested that this increment should be increased 
to 2.59 work RVUs to reflect the work increase the RUC had recommended 
for CPT code 43219 (one of the codes used to arrive at this increase) 
as part of the 5-year review. Additionally, they also commented that 
the increment for the pre-dilation service should be from the dilation 
of gastric outlet in connection with an upper GI as opposed to the 
esophagoscopy code. Finally, commenters did not believe that these 
services should be subject to ``within family work neutrality 
adjustments'' (see Final Decision below) and instead believed that any 
increase in total RVUs should be addressed through the SGR or 
conversion factor. They felt that these stent placements are new 
technology and should not be viewed as code splitting/unbundling of 
services. They stated that stent placements have only been performed 
over the last 4-5 years and any work associated with them is

[[Page 55296]]

not reflected in current work values for endoscopic codes.
    Final decision: ``Within family work neutrality adjustments'' are 
used for new or revised services that are not considered new 
technologies. To achieve work neutrality within families of services, 
we compare the new or revised work RVUs (weighted by projected 
frequency) to the old work RVUs (weighted by actual frequency) to 
ensure that additional RVUs have not been added based on fragmentation 
of existing codes. We agree with the commenter that these services are 
new technologies and thus should not be subject to within family work 
neutrality adjustments. With regard to the final work value for CPT 
code 43219 and the use of dilation and stent placement codes in 
assigning a work value to 43219, please see our discussion elsewhere in 
this rule.

Cryosurgical Ablation of the Prostate--CPT Code 55873

    We agreed with the RUC recommended work RVU for CPT code 55873 as 
we felt that the comparison to CPT code 55801, Prostatectomy, perineal, 
subtotal, was appropriate to aid in setting the work RVU of CPT code 
55873. One commenter did not agree that this comparison was 
appropriate. The commenter indicated that the RUC was being requested 
to review this service again at its February meeting.
    Final decision: The RUC provided comments on interim valued CPT 
code 55873 that re-visited the appropriate comparison service. Based 
upon comments received, the final work RVUs for CPT code 55873 will be 
increased to 19.47.

Percutaneous Vertebroplasty--CPT Code 22522

    We disagreed with the RUC-recommended work RVUs of 4.31 for this 
service. CPT code 22522 is an add-on code that should have no 
associated pre- or postservice work. We removed the pre- and 
postservice work from the weighted average of CPT codes 22520 and 
22521, which are the base services with which add-on CPT code 22522 
should be billed in conjunction, and recalculated the value. Thus, we 
assigned interim work RVUs of 3.00 for CPT code 22522. Several 
commenters disagreed and do not believe that our methodology has 
appropriately valued this add-on service. Commenters felt we should sum 
the work RVUs of CPT codes 22520 and 22521 and then take 50 percent of 
this value. They believe that this is how we historically have 
calculated work RVUs for add-on services. Based on these comments, we 
referred this code to a multispecialty refinement panel for review.
    Final decision: As a result of the statistical analysis of the 
refinement panel ratings, the final work RVUs are 4.31 for CPT code 
22522.

Fetal Biophysical Stress Testing--CPT Codes 76818 and 76819

    Although we agreed with the relativity presented by the RUC, we 
reduced the RVUs for these aforementioned services due to within family 
work neutrality adjustments. As previously discussed, within family 
work neutrality adjustments are used to ensure that additional relative 
values are not added based on fragmentation of existing codes. One 
specialty organization felt that we inappropriately determined that the 
work associated with the original CPT code 76818 (CPT code 76819 was 
added for January 1, 2001), included the average work of both with and 
without non-stress test. It believes that the survey data presented to 
the RUC suggest that this assumption is invalid and that the 
inappropriate within family neutralization of these services creates a 
rank-order anomaly in this family of codes.
    The survey data indicated that CPT code 76818 required more time 
and greater mental effort than CPT code 76805 (Complete OB ultrasound), 
which has 0.99 work RVUs, since the ultrasound portion of CPT code 
76818, while less extensive, is typically performed in a high-risk 
situation. In addition, CPT code 76818 also includes CPT code 59025 
(Fetal non-stress test) with work RVUs of 0.53. The specialty 
organization also reported that CPT code 76819 requires more work than 
CPT code 76815 (Limited obstetric ultrasound) with work RVUs of 0.65. 
The assignment of 0.86 RVUs to CPT code 76818 and 0.63 RVUs to 76819 
creates a rank-order anomaly with this family of obstetric ultrasound 
procedures.
    Final Decision: We agree with the commenter that the within family 
neutrality adjustment we made for 2001 was not appropriate and created 
a rank-order anomaly within this family of services. We will remove the 
neutrality adjustments for January 1, 2002.

Cognitive Skills and Sensory Integrative Techniques--CPT Codes 97532 
and 97533

    We did not agree with the HCPAC recommendation for CPT codes 97532 
and 97533 (work RVUs of 0.51 and 0.48, respectively). These two new 
services were created to replace deleted CPT code 97770. We believed 
that the work associated with these new services is analogous to 
deleted CPT code 97770 and therefore, we assigned work RVUs of 0.44 
(the value assigned to the deleted code) to these new replacement 
codes. Commenters felt that assignment of this work value was arbitrary 
on our part, particularly since the HCPAC information had been based on 
information from a survey completed by the practitioners who provide 
these services.
    Final Decision: We disagree with the commenters and are finalizing 
the interim work values. This is an example of replacing one CPT code 
with two new CPT codes that describe identical work. Because there is 
no new technology involved, we will finalize the interim work RVUs.

Wound Care CPT Codes

    Absent a HCPAC recommendation for either of the aforementioned CPT 
codes, we valued the work of CPT code 97601 as 0.50 RVUs, the same as 
deleted service G0169 that described the work in the new code. We 
considered CPT code 97602 to be bundled into CPT code 97601 and 
therefore did not establish work RVUs for this service. Commenters 
believed that we inappropriately bundled CPT code 97602 into 97601 
since they represent distinct services. The commenters requested that 
we reconsider bundling CPT code 97602.
    Final Decision: We have re-examined our determination but have not 
changed our decision. CPT code 97602 describes services that typically 
involve placement of a wound covering, for example, wet-to-dry gauze or 
enzyme-treated dressing. It also includes nonspecific removal of 
devitalized tissue that is an inherent part of changing a dressing. 
This service is already included in the work and practice expenses of 
CPT code 97601. In the typical service described by 97601, the patient 
has a dressing placed over the wound. We would add that the services 
described by 97602 are also included in the work and practice expenses 
of the whirlpool code, CPT 97022. For this reason, we consider this a 
bundled service that is not paid separately.

Percutaneous Breast Biopsy--CPT Codes 19102 and 19103

    We agreed with the RUC recommended work RVUs of CPT codes 19102 
(RVU = 2.00) and 19103 (RVU = 2.37). Commenters believed that the work 
RVUs assigned to these codes were inappropriately low and did not 
accurately reflect the time and intensity of the work involved. 
Commenters supplied information to support their request for increasing 
the work RVUs for

[[Page 55297]]

these services. Based on these comments, we referred this code to a 
multispecialty refinement panel for review.
    Final decision: As a result of the statistical analysis of the 
multispecialty refinement panel ratings, the final work RVUs for CPT 
code 19102 are 2.00, and the final work RVUs for CPT code 19103 are 
3.70.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging Procedures--CPT codes 70540, 70542, 70543, 
71550, 71551, 71552, 72195, 72196, 72197, 73218, 73219, 73220, 73221, 
73222, 73223, 73718, 73719, 73720, 73721, 73722, 73723, 74181, 74182, 
and 74183

    We received a RUC recommendation for only 3 of these codes (70540, 
70542, 70543) for January 1, 2001. However, this recommendation did not 
reflect the required within family work neutrality adjustment. The work 
RVUs of 0.98, 1.17, and 1.56 were assigned to these services to ensure 
that there would not be additional work RVUs introduced into the 
system. We did not receive work recommendations or utilization data for 
any of the other new MRI codes and assigned work RVUs for these other 
codes based on the methodology outlined in the November 2000 final 
rule.
    Commenters expressed concern about the within family work 
neutrality adjustment applied to the RUC-recommended work RVUs, and the 
methodology that was used to establish work values for the other MRI 
procedures. Commenters requested that we re-evaluate the within family 
work neutrality adjustment based upon updated information supplied in 
their respective comments.
    Final decision: We are accepting the work values for these services 
which were submitted by the RUC in its comment on the interim work 
values we assigned in last year's final rule. We note that these work 
values are virtually identical to the work values that we assigned as 
interim last year. Based upon comments received, we have re-evaluated 
the utilization crosswalks upon which our within family work neutrality 
adjustments were based.
    Since 2001 is the first year for which actual data is available for 
these services, we used available data (first two quarters of 2001) to 
capture the actual utilization of these new services. This utilization 
was then subjected to a standard analysis of reporting trends to 
estimate the completion percentage of 2001 utilization data. The 
available utilization was then ``aged'' to represent one full year of 
data for 2001. After determining the utilization for 2001, we applied 
this revised within family work neutrality adjustment across the entire 
family of MRI procedures rather than applying this adjustment to 
subsets. We are finalizing these within family work neutral values and 
note that the re-calculation of this neutrality adjustment results in 
increases to the work RVUs of the MRI services referenced above.

Computed Tomographic Angiography (CTA)--CPT Codes 70496, 70498, 71275, 
72191, 73206, 73706, 74175 and 75635

    We agreed with the RUC recommendation of 1.75 for CPT codes 70496 
and 70498 for January 1, 2001. However, the RUC did not submit work 
recommendations for the other CTA codes. We assigned work RVUs for 
these other codes based on the methodology outlined in the November 
2000 rule. Commenters disagreed with the interim values we had proposed 
for CTA codes and provided additional information for valuing these 
services. The commenter felt that our decisions created rank-order 
anomalies between anatomic sites.
    Final decision: We are accepting the work values for these services 
which were submitted by the RUC in its comment on the interim work 
values we assigned in last year's final rule. We will implement them as 
final values for 2002.

Practice Expense Refinements of 2001 Interim and Revised RVUs

Percutaneous Breast Biopsy--CPT Codes 19102 and 19103

    Comment: A specialty organization representing breast surgeons 
submitted its suggested direct cost inputs for these two services and 
had several comments on their practice expenses. The commenter 
indicated that the price in the database for the biopsy driver was too 
low, that the clinical staff type should be a registered nurse rather 
than a technician and that there should be pre- and postservice 
clinical staff time when the procedure is performed in the facility 
setting. In addition, the commenter questioned whether the 50 percent 
utilization rate used to price equipment was realistic for new 
technology and recommended that device-specific utilization rates be 
determined. The society also questioned the lack of direct cost inputs 
for equipment and supplies for CPT 76095, the associated procedure for 
image guidance. A manufacturer commented that the equipment inputs for 
CPT 19102 were erroneously dropped from the CPEP database.
    Response: We had accepted the RUC recommendations on these two 
services, making only the following technical changes to the supplies 
and equipment: we did not include the cost of the crash cart, because 
we consider this an indirect expense, nor the cost of the biopsy gun 
handle, because this was less than the $500 required for an item to be 
on the equipment list. We also did not include separately billable 
fluids, the formalin that would be supplied by the lab, or the 
biohazard bag and skin marking pen that could be used for more than one 
procedure.
    If the specialty that was involved in the presentation of these 
codes to the RUC now believes that the direct inputs do not adequately 
represent the costs of performing these services, one option would be 
to have these codes refined by the PEAC. In the meantime, we are 
prepared to make certain changes to the CPEP data in response to the 
recommendations made by the commenters. We will add the power table and 
surgical lamp to both codes and will increase the price associated with 
the biopsy device driver, subject to verification when we undertake our 
repricing of the CPEP equipment inputs. Because the specialties 
presenting the codes to the RUC, and the RUC itself, recommended using 
radiologic staff for these services, we will not change the staff type 
to registered nurse at this time. However, we will substitute the 
higher-paid mammography technologist, which we have just added to our 
staff type list, for the current x-ray technician staff type.
    We have in the past solicited information from the specialties 
regarding equipment-specific utilization rates, but we have never 
received sufficient information to propose any changes in our policy. 
Additionally, for most services, changing the utilization rate would 
have very little effect.
    The commenter is correct that the associated procedure for image 
guidance, CPT 76095, currently does not have CPEP inputs assigned to 
the non-facility setting. However, at this time, it is priced as a part 
of the ``zero work'' pool, and the CPEP inputs are not used to 
calculate the practice expense RVUs for this service. We would hope 
that this code could be refined in the near future and given the 
appropriate inputs for the office setting.

CPT Codes 34812, 34820, 34830, 34831 and 34832 for Repair of Aortic 
Aneurysm

    Comment: A specialty organization representing vascular surgery 
stated that CPT codes 34812 and 34820 should have clinical staff 
preservice time added and that CPT codes 34830, 34831 and

[[Page 55298]]

34832 were assigned inappropriately low postservice clinical staff 
times.
    Response: We accepted the RUC recommendations for all of these 
services. There was no preservice time included in the RUC 
recommendation for CPT codes 34812 and 34820. In addition, we have 
assigned 99 minutes of clinical staff postservice time to CPT codes 
34830, 34831 and 34832, as recommended by the RUC. These codes can be 
refined by the PEAC which now has a standard package for 90-day global 
pre- and postservice times for clinical staff and is also discussing 
the coordination of care clinical staff times for 0-day global 
services.
    We received the following comments on HCPCS codes established in 
the November 1, 2000 final rule.
     G0169  Removal of Devitalized tissue, without use of 
anesthesia.
    Comment: The American Podiatric Medical Association recognized 
that, effective January 1, 2001, this code was eliminated and we have 
adopted CPT code 97601, which is sufficiently similar to the services 
described by G0169. However, it requested we address a policy issue 
related to the discussion of this service. In the November 2, 1999 
Federal Register (64 FR 59426), we stated that G0169 was created 
because CPT codes 11040 through 11044 for debridement were created to 
describe ``complex surgical services requiring the use of general 
anesthesia.'' APMA indicates that there had never been a policy 
requiring the use of any anesthesia, much less general anesthesia, when 
performing surgical debridement that is reported with CPT codes 11040 
through 11044. However, as a result of the statement in the November 2 
Federal Register, some carriers developed policies denying payment for 
these codes if anesthesia was not used. The APMA urged us to clarify 
that anesthesia, whether general or local, is not required when billing 
CPT codes 11040 through 11044.
    Response: We acknowledge that the use of ``general anesthesia'' in 
the preamble to the November 2, 1999 rule was an error, and we believe 
all our contractors are aware of our misstatement. As the commenter 
stated, the code G0169 has been deleted and replaced by CPT code 97601, 
Removal of devitalized tissue from wound(s); selective debridement, 
without anesthesia (e.g., high pressure waterjet, shape selective 
debridement with scissors, scalpel, and tweezers) including topical 
application(s), wound assessment, and instruction(s) for ongoing care, 
one session. We expect that our contractors will develop policies to 
distinguish this service from the debridement codes, 11040 through 
11044. We anticipate that they may consider a variety of factors, 
including the extent of the debridement and the amount of medical skill 
required to perform the service, and not simply whether a local 
anesthetic was used in the procedure.
    Comment: The American College of Surgeons urged us to issue 
instructions to carriers specifying that the use of CPT code 97061 is 
limited to physical therapists and other non-physician practitioners 
and that the debridement of wounds by surgeons is properly reported 
with a code from the CPT debridement codes 11040-11044.
    Response: As we stated in the response to the previous comment, we 
believe that our contractors are likely to make this distinction in 
their local policies. If we determine that relying on local carrier 
policies is unsatisfactory, then we will consider whether national 
guidance is needed.
     G0181 and G0182, Care plan Oversight.
    Comment: A few organizations expressed disappointment that we 
finalized our proposal to establish two new G codes for care plan 
oversight services, rather than continue to recognize the CPT codes 
related to these services.
    Response: The CPT codes for care plan oversight were modified so 
that they included services that extend beyond the limits of our 
current payment policy. As a result, we will continue to use the G-
codes that are consistent with our payment policies.
     G0180 and G0179 Certification and Recertification of 
Medicare Covered Home Health Services.
    Comment: Several specialty organizations expressed appreciation for 
our willingness to recognize and compensate physicians for these 
services and supported our decision to pursue this coding and 
reimbursement issue through the CPT and RUC processes. The American 
College of Surgeons expressed concern that claims submitted by surgeons 
for physician certification or recertification would be denied 
inappropriately due to longstanding rules that preclude payment for 
services that are provided during the global period.
    Response: As was stated in the November 1, 2000 final rule (66 FR 
65408), surgeons performing these services could be paid for G0179 and 
G0180 during the global period. We have heard no specific complaints 
that this policy has not been implemented appropriately.

G Codes Related to Swallowing Function

    Comment: The American College of Surgeons objected to the creation 
of these G codes and requested that we discontinue their use and work 
with the otolaryngologists to submit a coding request on these services 
to the CPT Editorial Panel. The American Academy of Otolaryngology--
Head and Neck Surgery, Inc. (AAO-HNS) also expressed concern about 
creation of these codes. It felt that our description of the codes was 
incomplete and inaccurate.
    In the November 1, 2000 final rule we proposed 4 new G codes and 
stated that these would replace the more general CPT code 92525, 
Evaluation of swallowing and oral function for feeding. AAO-HNS 
believes that this incorrectly implies that the single code 92525 
includes 4 unique services and, therefore, we have significantly 
understated the work and practice expenses required for these 
procedures.
    For G0193, Endoscopy study of swallowing function, and GO194 
Sensory testing during endoscoping study of swallowing, we stated that 
coverage of these services remains at the discretion of the carrier and 
that they would be carrier priced. AAO-HNS expressed concern that 
carriers might misinterpret this statement to mean the codes should not 
be covered and, if covered, the payment might be inappropriately low. 
AAO-HNS requested we clarify that these services should be covered and 
recommended that pricing for GO193 should equal to the sum of the RVUs 
for CPT code 31575, Laryngoscopy, flexible fiberoptic; diagnostic, and 
CPT code 92525.
    AAO-HNS also did not agree with our decision to treat G0194 as an 
``add-on'' code as this group felt this would create confusion. Rather, 
AAO-HNS suggested that GO194 be treated as a stand-alone code with RVUs 
equal to CPT codes 31575, 92525 and 92520 (Laryngeal function studies).
    In addition, AAO-HNS was concerned about our statement that CPT 
code 31575 and CPT code 31579 (Laryngoscopy, flexible or rigid 
fiberoptic, with stroboscopy) should not be used for evaluations of 
swallowing and urged that we clarify that these codes could still be 
used to report flexible fiberoptic laryngosopies for patients with 
swallowing problems.
    Response: These G codes related to swallowing function were created 
because of the ambiguity of the CPT code, 92525. The CPT editorial 
panel will be reviewing codes designed to substitute for the G-codes 
created. The specialty advisors, including AAO-

[[Page 55299]]

HNS, will have the opportunity to comment on these proposals and to 
create codes that they believe will describe the services more 
accurately. If the CPT editorial panel adopts these revised codes, they 
could be in the 2003 CPT book.
    Comment: The American Occupational Therapy Association stated that 
in the specific discussion of code GO195, and by implication the 
related codes, we stated these services are performed typically by a 
speech and language pathologist. While AOTA does not disagree with this 
characterization, it requested that we clarify that other 
professionals, specifically occupational therapists, also may be 
trained in these procedures. It noted that in some areas of the country 
occupational therapists typically perform swallowing evaluations, 
particularly in conjunction with feeding and eating deficits.
    Response: These G codes did not specify which professionals could 
perform these services. The description of the new G codes only stated 
that these services would be most commonly performed by speech and 
language pathologists. Our contractors, who have the capacity to be 
responsive to local differences in practice patterns, will be aware of 
whether occupational therapists have the qualifications to perform 
these evaluations and will make the decisions about whether the service 
performed matches the services described by the code.
    Comment: The American College of Radiology requested clarification 
on the specialties we anticipate using G0196; they asked if this G code 
would be used by the speech pathologist while the radiologist would use 
CPT code 74230. ACR expressed concern that provision of such a G code 
would promote performance of fluoroscopy by non-trained individuals.
    Response: We do not believe that the development of these G codes 
should lead to non-trained individuals performing fluoroscopy. Prior to 
the development of the G codes, we were asked by speech and language 
pathologists if they could bill 74230 to describe the work they did in 
conjunction with a fluoroscopic or video evaluation of swallowing. We 
did not think that the speech and language pathologists should bill the 
code 74230 and created this G code to describe the portion of the 
examination that they typically performed.
    We were also asked whether the services of a speech and language 
pathologist should have remained bundled into the technical portion of 
the 74230 examination, because this may have been the method of billing 
these services prior to the development of the G code. Because this new 
G code separates the services of the speech and language pathologists 
in this examination, we may need to clarify which services are included 
in the technical portion of 74230. None of these concerns would lead a 
non-skilled practitioner to perform either of these services.

G Codes Related to Speech Generating Devices and Voice Prostheses 
G0197-G0201

    Comment: AAO-HNS expressed concern about the establishment of G 
codes related to speech generating devices and voice prostheses. It 
continues to believe that the creation of codes used to describe 
services that are already described in CPT makes compliance with 
Medicare policy difficult and confusing.
    Response: The current CPT codes, 92597 and 92598, identify two 
distinct services--evaluation or modification of voice prosthetics and 
augmentative or alternative communicative devices. Since different 
types of patients require either voice prosthetics (for example, an 
artificial larynx) or augmentative or alternative communicative 
devices, we believe that separating these two services through the use 
of G-codes actually should make compliance with Medicare policies 
easier, since the services being delivered are more accurately 
described.

Revisions to Malpractice RVUs for New and Revised CPT Codes for 
2001

    Malpractice RVUs are calculated using the methodology described in 
detail at Addendum G of our November 1, 2000 final rule (65 FR 65589). 
Because of the timing of the release of new and revised CPT codes each 
year, the malpractice RVUs for the first year of these codes are 
extrapolated from existing similar codes, based on the advice of our 
medical consultants, and are considered interim subject to public 
comment and revision. The following year these codes are given values 
based on our malpractice RVU methodology and a review of comments 
received.
    The malpractice RVUs for 2001 new and revised codes published in 
Addendum B of the November 1, 2000 final rule were thus extrapolated 
from (RVUs for existing similar codes). The malpractice RVUs for these 
codes in this year's Addendum B were calculated by our consultant, 
KPMG, using the same methodology used for all other codes. Likewise, 
the malpractice RVUs for new and revised 2002 codes are being 
extrapolated from existing similar codes and will be calculated using 
the malpractice RVU methodology next year.
    Comment: One commenter stated that malpractice premiums are rapidly 
increasing all over the country and that we should ensure that the 
physician fee schedule reflect these increases.
    Response: We agree that changes in malpractice premiums should, to 
the extent possible, be reflected in the physician fee schedule. The 
most recent malpractice data available were used in constructing the 
2001 malpractice RVUs and the revised 2001 GPCIs. In addition, the 
relative weights of the component cost shares (work, practice expense, 
malpractice) in the physician fee schedule and in the MEI are 
periodically adjusted when the most recent AMA SMS data indicate 
significant shifts among physician practice cost components. However, 
because of the time needed to collect the data and propose changes 
through the rulemaking process, there is a time lag in making these 
changes.

Establishment of Interim Work Relative Value Units for New and Revised 
Physician's Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) Codes and New 
Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System Codes (HCPCS) for 2002 
(Includes Table 6, AMA RUC and HCPAC Work RVU Recommendations and CMS 
Decisions for New and Revised 2002 CPT Codes)

    One aspect of establishing RVUs for 2002 was related to the 
assignment of interim work RVUs for all new and revised CPT codes. As 
described in our November 25, 1992 notice in the 1993 fee schedule (57 
FR 55983), and in section III.B. of our November 22, 1996 final rule 
(61 FR 59505-59506), we established a process, based on recommendations 
received from the AMA's RUC, for establishing interim work RVUs for new 
and revised codes.
    This year we received RUC work RVU recommendations for 
approximately 314 new and revised CPT codes. Our staff and medical 
officers reviewed the RUC recommendations by comparing them to our 
reference set or to other comparable services for which work RVUs had 
been previously established, or to both of these criteria. We also 
considered the relationships among the new and revised codes for which 
we received RUC recommendations. We agreed with the majority of these 
relationships reflected in the RUC values. In some instances, when we 
agreed with the relationships, we revised the work RVUs to achieve work 
neutrality within families of codes, that is, the work RVUs have been 
adjusted so that the sum of the new or revised work RVUs

[[Page 55300]]

(weighted by projected frequency of use) for a family will be the same 
as the sum of the current work RVUs (weighted by projected frequency of 
use for that family of codes). For approximately 93 percent of the RUC 
recommendations, proposed work RVUs were accepted, and for 
approximately 7 percent, we disagreed with the RUC recommendation. In a 
majority of instances, we agreed with the relativity proposed by the 
RUC, but needed to decrease work RVUs to retain budget neutrality.
    There were also 10 CPT codes for which we did not receive a RUC 
recommendation. After a review of these CPT codes by our staff and 
medical officers, we established interim work RVUs for the majority of 
these services. For those services for which we could not arrive at 
interim work RVUs, we have assigned a carrier-priced status until such 
time as the RUC provides work RVU recommendations.
    We received 18 recommendations from the Health Care Professionals 
Advisory Committee (HCPAC). We accepted 12, or 67 percent, of the HCPAC 
recommendations.
    Table 6, AMA RUC and HCPAC Work RVU Recommendations and CMS 
Decisions for New and Revised 2002 CPT Codes, lists the new or revised 
CPT codes, and their associated work RVUs, that will be interim in 
2002. This table includes the following information:

Discussion of Codes for Which There Were No RUC Recommendations or for 
which the RUC Recommendations Were Not Accepted

    The following is a summary of our rationale for not accepting 
particular RUC work RVU or base unit recommendations. It is arranged by 
type of service in CPT code order. Additionally, we also discuss those 
CPT codes for which we received no RUC recommendations for physician 
work RVUs. This summary refers only to work RVUs.

Anesthesia for Intraperitoneal Procedures in Upper Abdomen Including 
Laparoscopy; Gastric Restrictive Procedure for Morbid Obesity (CPT Code 
00797).

    The RUC recommended that 9 base units be assigned to this procedure

[[Page 55306]]

based on a comparison to CPT code 00790 (Anesthesia for intraperitoneal 
procedures in the upper abdomen including laparoscopy; not otherwise 
specified). We disagree. We believe that assigning 9 base units to 
00797 creates a rank order anomaly with CPT code 00794 (Anesthesia for 
intraperitoneal procedures in the upper abdomen including laparoscopy; 
pancreatectomy, partial or total (for example, Whipple procedure)) 
which is assigned 8 base units.
    While obese patients do make the work of an anesthesiologist more 
difficult, we believe that the vignette used in the RUC survey was 
atypical and exaggerated the required work because the patient in the 
vignette was described as having asthma. We believe the work of an 
anesthesiologist is greater for patients undergoing Whipple procedures 
because, typically, these patients are sicker and require longer 
operative time and more intense anesthesia care than patients 
undergoing gastric restrictive procedures. Therefore, we are assigning 
8 base units to 00797.

Cesarean Delivery Following Neuraxial Labor Analgesia/Anesthesia (List 
Separately in Addition to Code for Primary Procedure (CPT Code 01968))

    The RUC recommended 3 base units for this add-on procedure. This 
procedure is reported in addition to CPT code 01967 (Neuraxial labor 
analgesia/anesthesia for planned vaginal delivery (this includes any 
repeat subarachnoid needle placement and drug injection and/or any 
necessary replacement of an epidural catheter during labor)), when a 
patient who has been given neuraxial anesthesia for a planned vaginal 
delivery requires conversion to a cesarian delivery and must be given 
anesthesia for the cesarian delivery. The RUC recommended 7 base units 
for CPT code 01961 (Anesthesia for, cesarian delivery only), a 
recommendation with which we agree. We note the following:
     The base units of 01961, anesthesia for cesarian delivery, 
are the same as the base units of 01967 plus 01968.
     The survey respondents valued the add-on code 01968 as if 
it were a stand-alone code with a median base unit of 7 and an 
intraservice time of 75 minutes. Both the median base units and the 
intraservice time are identical to the survey results for 01961.
     CPT code 01968 is currently reported (per the American 
Society of Anesthesiologists) as 00857 (Neuraxial analgesia/anesthesia 
for labor ending in a cesarian delivery (this includes any repeat 
subarachnoid needle placement and drug injection and/or any necessary 
replacement of an epidural catheter during labor), which is valued at 7 
base units. Moreover, the work of CPT code 01967 plus CPT code 01968 is 
completely described by CPT code 00857 so it is unclear why the sum of 
the base units assigned to 01967 and 01968 should not be identical to 
the base units currently assigned to CPT code 00857.
    In view of these concerns, we are assigning 2 base units to CPT 
code 01968. We are also making a neutrality adjustment to the 
anesthesia conversion factor based on our analysis of the estimated 
difference in base units between previously repeated anesthesia codes 
and the new codes.

Injection, Therapeutic (Eg, Local Anesthetic, Corticosteroid); Carpal 
Canal, (CPT Code 20526) Injection; Tendon Sheath, Ligament, Ganglion 
Cyst, (CPT Code 20550)

Injection; Tendon Origin/Insertion, (CPT Code 20551)

Injection; Single or Multiple Trigger Point(s), One or Two Muscle 
Group(s) (CPT Code 20552), and

Injection; Single or Multiple Trigger Point(s), Three or More Muscle 
Groups (CPT Code 20553)

    CPT codes 20526, 20551, 20552, and 20553 are new codes, while 20550 
is being revised from its current descriptor ``Injection, tendon 
sheath, ligament; ganglion cyst, or trigger points'' to the descriptor 
above. We received an interim recommendation of 0.86 work RVUs for 
these codes, from the RUC, based on the fact that all these procedures 
are currently reported as 20550 which is valued at 0.86 RVUs.
    CPT code 20550 comprises several procedures with varying amounts of 
physician work that will now be reported separately. We are assigning 
0.86 RVUs to all these codes on an interim basis, and will review this 
further for 2002 if we receive recommendations from the RUC. At that 
time we will also have utilization data on these services to assist us 
in making work neutrality adjustments should any adjustments be 
required.

Laparoscopy, Surgical; Colectomy, Partial With Anastomosis (CPT Code 
44204) and Laparoscopy, Surgical; Colectomy, Partial, With Removal of 
Terminal Ileum With Ileocecostomy (CPT Code 44205)

    The RUC recommended 22.00 RVUs for CPT code 44204 and 19.50 RVUs 
for CPT Code 44205 based on the reference code 44140 (Colectomy, 
partial; with anastomosis) which, at the time of the recommendation, 
had a work RVU of 18.35. We increased the work RVU of CPT Code 44140 to 
21 as part of the 5-year review of physician work. In order to prevent 
rank order anomalies we are assigning work RVUs of 25.08 and 22.23 to 
CPT Codes 44204 and 44205, respectively. These work RVUs represent a 14 
percent increase over the RUC recommendation and are consistent with 
our valuation of CPT Code 44140.

Laparoscopy, Surgical, Ablation of One or More Liver Tumor(s); 
Radiofrequency (CPT Code 47370), Laparoscopy, Surgical, Ablation of One 
or More Liver Tumor(s); Cryosurgical (CPT Code 47371), Ablation, Open, 
of One or More Liver Tumor(s); Radiofrequency (CPT Code 47380), 
Ablation, Open, of One or More Liver Tumor(s); Cryosurgical (CPT Code 
47381), Ablation, One or More Liver Tumor(s), Percutaneous, 
Radiofrequency (CPT Code 47382), Computerized Axial Tomography Guidance 
for, and Monitoring of, Tissue Ablation (CPT Code 76362), Magnetic 
Resonance Guidance for, and Monitoring of, Tissue Ablation (CPT Code 
76394); and Ultrasound Guidance for, and Monitoring of, Tissue Ablation 
(CPT Code 76490)

    We have not received recommendations from the RUC for these 
procedures. We have assigned work RVUs as follows:

47370--18 work RVUs
47371--16.94 work RVUs
47380--21.25 work RVUs
47381--21.00 work RVUs
47382--12.00 work RVUs

    To arrive at the values listed above, we compared the time and 
intensity of these services to other open and laparoscopic liver, 
colon, and renal procedures. We believe that the RVUs assigned place 
them in the correct rank order with these other services and with 
respect to each other.

76362--4.00 work RVUs
76394--4.25 work RVUs
76490--2.00 work RVUs
    To arrive at the values above, we compared the time and intensity 
of these procedures to other radiologic guidance codes and to 
radiologic supervision and interpretation codes. We believe that the 
assigned RVUs place them in correct rank order to other radiologic 
guidance services and to each other.

Cystourethroscopy with irrigation and evacuation of clots, (CPT Code 
52001)

    The RUC recommended 5.45 work RVUs based on a comparison to the 
reference procedures CPT code 52315 (Cystourethroscopy, with removal of

[[Page 55307]]

foreign body, calculus, or ureteral stent from urethra or bladder 
(separate procedure); complicated), and CPT Code 52235 
(Cystourethroscopy, with fulguration (including cryosurgery or laser 
surgery) and/or resection of; medium bladder tumor(s) (2.0 to 5.0 cm)).
    We are concerned that 52001, with its current descriptor, will be 
reported whenever a cystoscopy is performed and blood is present during 
the examination. As written, the code may be reported whenever any 
blood clots are present. The RUC recommendation is based upon the 
urologists' response to a scenario where the bladder outlet was 
obstructed due to large blood clots and removal of the blood clots 
required a resectoscope. Unfortunately, the code descriptor does not 
require the presence of bladder obstruction due to blood clots, nor 
does it require the use of a resectoscope. Therefore, until the 
descriptor of this code is clarified by the AMA CPT editorial panel, we 
are assigning 2.37 RVUs to this procedure. As the CPT code is now 
written, the time and intensity of the physician work for this 
procedure are comparable to CPT Code 52005. (Cystourethroscopy, with 
ureteral catheterization, with or without irrigation, instillation, or 
ureteropyelography, exclusive of radiologic service).

Transurethral Destruction of Prostatic Tissue; By Water Induced 
Thermotherapy (CPT Code 53853)

    The RUC recommended 6.41 work RVUs for this procedure based on a 
comparison to CPT Code 54670 (Suture or repair of testicular injury) 
which has a similar work value and similar pre-, intra-, and 
postservice times to the median times in the survey for 53853. The RUC 
also noted that CPT Code 53850 (Transurethral destruction of prostate; 
by microwave thermotherapy) has 90 minutes of intraservice time as 
compared to 60 minutes for CPT code 53853 and that the recommended work 
value for CPT code 53853 was approximately \2/3\ of the work value for 
CPT code 53850.
    We note that although the intraservice time for CPT code 53853 is 
60 minutes, most of that time is spent monitoring the flow of hot water 
through a catheter and balloon and checking the water's temperature. We 
estimate that the maximum amount of time spent on activities other than 
monitoring is 20 minutes. This means that the work intensity for the 
intraservice portion of this procedure is significantly less than it is 
for most other surgical procedures and, specifically, the reference 
codes examined by the RUC. Therefore, we believe it is more appropriate 
to compare CPT code 53853 to 90-day global procedures with less than 30 
minutes of intraservice time. For these reasons we compared CPT code 
58350 to the following procedures:

    The RUC sent us a postservice time of 131 minutes, which we believe 
is incorrect. The RUC assigned 3 postservice visits to this procedure 
which have a combined time of 35 minutes, not 53 minutes as recommended 
by the RUC. Therefore, the correct postservice time is 118 minutes.
    With respect to the services listed above, we note that all of them 
carry significant risks to the patient and have intraservice work of 
high intensity. In fact, we believe the intraservice work of all the 
above procedures is of greater intensity than any portion of the 
intraservice work of CPT code 53853. After review of the procedures 
considered by the RUC and the above procedures, we believe that the 
time and intensity of CPT code 53853 is most comparable to CPT code 
58800 and are assigning 4.14 work RVUs to CPT code 53853. This places 
CPT code 53853 in the correct rank order with respect not only to the 
procedures listed above but also to the prostate ablation, 
cystourethroscopy, and testicular procedures considered by the RUC.

Destruction of Localized Lesion of Choroids (eg, Choroidal 
Neovascularization); Photodynamic Therapy, Second Eye, at Single 
Session (List Separately in Addition To Code for Primary Eye Treatment) 
CPT Code 67225

    We did not receive a RUC recommendation on this code. We are 
assigning work RVUs of 0.47, which is the work value for G0184, the 
code previously used for reporting this service.

Immunization Administration (Includes Percutaneous, Intradermal, 
Subcutaneous, Intramuscular and Jet Injections); One Vaccine (Single or 
Combination Vaccine/Toxoid) (CPT Code 90471), Immunization 
Administration (Includes Percutaneous, Intradermal, Subcutaneous, 
Intramuscular and Jet Injections); Each Additional Vaccine/Toxoid (List 
Separately in Addition To Code for Primary Procedure) One Vaccine (CPT 
Code 90472)

    The RUC recommended a work RVU of .17 for CPT code 90471 and .15 
work RVUs for CPT code 90472. These

[[Page 55308]]

services are analogous to CPT code 90872 (Therapeutic, prophylactic or 
diagnostic injection (specify material injected); subcutaneous or 
intramuscular) which has no physician work RVUs. They are services 
performed by a nurse and have no physician work. If the physician 
performs any counseling related to this service, it is considered part 
of the work of the preventive medicine visit during which the 
immunization was administered. If the vaccine is administered during a 
visit other than a preventive medicine service, any physician 
counseling should be billed separately as an E/M service. For these 
reasons we are not assigning work RVUs to these codes.

Immunization Administration by Intranasal or Oral Route; One Vaccine 
(Single or Combination Vaccine/Toxoid) (CPT Code 90473); and, 
Immunization Administration by Intranasal or Oral Route Each Additional 
Vaccine/Toxoid (List Separately in Addition To Code for Primary 
Procedure) CPT Code 90474

    The RUC recommended a work RVU of .17 for CPT code 90473 and .15 
work RVUs for CPT code 90474. These are noncovered services. Medicare 
does not cover self-administered vaccines, and, therefore, we are not 
assigning work RVUs to these services.

Intraventricular and/or Intra-Atrial Mapping of Tachycardia Site(s) 
With Catheter Manipulation to Record From Multiple Sites to Identify 
Origin of Tachycardia (CPT Code 93609)

    We have not received a recommendation from the RUC for this 
service. The descriptor for this service has not changed but the AMA 
CPT editorial panel changed the global period for this service from a 
zero day global to a ZZZ global. This means that it is now an ``add 
on'' code and the physician work RVUs will no longer include any pre- 
or postservice work. It currently has a work RVU of 10.07. In order to 
appropriately value this add on service, we compared it to several 
other electrophysiology services, including CPT code 93619, 
(Comprehensive electrophyisologic evaluation with right atrial pacing 
and recording, right ventricular pacing and recording, His bundle 
recording, including insertion and repositioning of multiple electrode 
catheters; without induction or attempted induction of arrhythmia) with 
a work RVU of 7.32, and CPT code 93618, Induction of arrhythmia by 
electrical pacing (work RVU 4.26), and CPT code 93624, 
(Electrophysiologic follow up study with pacing and recording to test 
effectiveness of therapy, including induction of attempted induction of 
arrhythmia), with a work RVU of 4.81. After reviewing these services, 
we believe that the time and intensity of physician work for CPT code 
93609 as an add-on code is most similar to CPT code 93624 and are 
assigning a work RVU of 4.81 to CPT code 93609.

Intracardiac Electrophysiologic 3-Dimensional Mapping (CPT Code 93613)

    This is a new add-on code for which we have not received a 
recommendation from the RUC. As an add-on code, this service does not 
include and pre- or postservice work. We compared this service to CPT 
code 93619 (Comprehensive electrophysiologic evaluation with right 
atrial pacing and recording, right ventricular pacing and recording, 
His bundle recording, including insertion and repositioning of multiple 
electrode catheters; without induction or attempted induction of 
arrhythmia) with work RVUs of 7.32 and to CPT code 93651 (Intracardiac 
catheter ablation of arrhythmogenic focus; for treatment of 
supraventricular tachycardia by ablation of fast or slow 
atrioventricular pathways, accessory atrioventricular connections or 
other atrial foci, singly or in combination) with work RVUs of 16.25. 
We also wanted to ensure that the work value for this service was 
placed in correct rank order to CPT code 93609 (see above). We believe 
that the intraservice time and intensity of this service is slightly 
less than that of CPT code 93619 and are assigning 7.00 work RVUs to 
CPT code 93613.

Bioimpedence, Thoracic, Electrical CPT Code 93701

    We received a RUC recommendation that this service has no physician 
work. We currently cover this service under the HCPCS code M0302. We 
assigned 0.17 physician work RVUs to this service in the November 2000 
final rule after conducting a notice and comment period. We will 
consider the RUC recommendation. If we considered changing the work 
RVUs for this service, we would discuss any proposed change in a future 
notice of proposed rule making. However, we are going to discontinue 
HCPCS code M0302 and will recognize CPT Code 93701 for this service.

Comprehensive Computer-Based Motion Analysis by Video-Taping And 3-D 
Kinematics (CPT Code 96000), Comprehensive Computer-Based Motion 
Analysis by Video-Taping and 3-D Kinematics; With Dynamic Plantar 
Pressure Measurements During Walking (CPT Code 96001), Dynamic Surface 
Electromyography, During Walking or Other Functional Activities, 1-12 
Muscles (CPT Code 96002), Dynamic Fine Wire Electromyography, During 
Walking or Other Functional Activities, 1 Muscle (CPT Code 96003), and 
Physician Review and Interpretation of Comprehensive Computer Based 
Motion Analysis, Dynamic Plantar Pressure Measurements, Dynamic Surface 
Electromyography During Walking or Other Functional Activities, and 
Dynamic Fine Wire Electromyography, With Written Report (CPT Code 
96004)

    HCPAC recommended that these services be carrier priced. We 
disagree and are assigning work RVUs to these services as follows:

    CPT code 96000--1.8 work RVUs
    CPT code 96001--2.15 work RVUs
    CPT code 96002--.41 work RVUs
    CPT code 96003--.37 work RVUs
    CPT code 96004--1.8 work RVUs

    To arrive at these values, we compared the time and intensity of 
CPT codes 96000 and 96001 to other physical therapy services. We 
believe that the assigned RVUs place these services in the correct rank 
order with other physical therapy services. We compared the time and 
intensity of CPT codes 96002 and 96003 to other electromyography 
services and believe that the assigned RVUs place these services in the 
correct rank order with other electromyography services. We compared 
the time and intensity of CPT code 96004 with other physical therapy 
services and physician consultation services and believe the assigned 
RVUs place CPT code 96004 in the correct rank order with these other 
services.

Removal of Devitalized Tissue From Wound(s); Non-Selective Debridement, 
Without Anesthesia (eg, Wet-To-Moist Dressings, Enzymatic, Abrasion), 
Including Topical Applications(s), Wound Assessment and Instruction(s) 
for Ongoing Care, Per Session, CPT 97602

    The HCPAC recommended a work RVU of .32 for this service. We 
disagree with this recommendation as we continue to believe that this 
code is bundled into 97602 for the reasons discussed earlier in this 
section. Therefore, we are not establishing work RVUs for this service.

Collection and Interpretation of Physiologic Data (eg, ECG, Blood 
Pressure, Glucose Monitoring) Digitally Stored and/or Transmitted by 
the Patient and/or Caregiver to the Physician or Other Qualified Health 
Care Professional, Requiring a Minimum of 30 Minutes of Time CPT CODE 
99091

    The RUC recommended work RVUs of 1.10 for this code. We disagree as 
this work is considered part of the pre and postservice work of an E/M 
service and propose to bundle payment for this code. (Note that payment 
for similar CPT code, 99090, Analysis of clinical data in computers 
(eg, ECGs, blood pressures, hematologic data, is also currently 
bundled.)

CPT Codes 99289, Physician Constant Attention of the Critically Ill or 
Injured Patient During an Interfacility Transport; First 30-74 Minutes, 
and 99290 Each Additional 30 Minutes (List Separately in Addition To 
Code for Primary Service)

    These two new codes were created for CPT 2002 that describe 
services provided during patient transport. The RUC recommended that 
CPT code 99289 be valued at 4.8 work RVUs and CPT code 99290 be valued 
at 2.4 work RVUs. The CPT explanatory notes accompanying these two new 
codes state:

    The following codes 99289 and 99290 are used to report the 
physical attendance and direct face-to-face care by a physician 
during the interfacility transport of a critically ill or injured 
patient. For the purposes of reporting codes 99289 and 99290, face-
to-face care begins when the physician assumes the primary 
responsibility of the patient at the referring hospital or facility, 
and ends when the receiving hospital or facility accepts 
responsibility for the patient's care. Only the time the physician 
spends in direct face-to-face contact the patient during the 
transport should be reported. Patient transport services involving 
less than 30 minutes of face-to-face physician care should not be 
reported using 99289, 99290.
    Procedure(s) or service(s) performed by other members of the 
transporting team may not be reported by the supervising physician. 
Any procedure(s) or service(s) performed by the physician before or 
during transport that are identified in CPT may be reported 
separately with the exception of routine monitoring evaluations (eg, 
heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure, and pulse oximetry) 
and the initiation of mechanical ventilation.
    The time spent by the physician performing separately reportable 
services or procedures should not be included in the face-to-face 
time reported by codes 99289, 99290. The direction of emergency care 
to transporting staff by a physician located in a hospital or other 
facility by two-way communication is not considered direct face-to-
face care and should not be reported with codes 99289, 99290.

    The CPT explanatory notes go on to state that physicians should 
report emergency department services codes, initial hospital care 
codes, and critical care codes only after the patient has been admitted 
to the emergency department, the inpatient floor, or the critical care 
unit of the receiving facility.
    Decision: We would like to note that, currently, physician services 
provided to patients during interfacility transport are reported, and 
paid, using the appropriate E/M service codes (for example, outpatient 
visits, emergency visits, prolonged services, critical care).
    We have several significant concerns about the new CPT codes, 99289 
and 99290. First, other than requiring face-to-face contact with the 
patient, there is no requirement for delivery of any specific physician 
service. This is in contrast to requirements for reporting critical 
care services under CPT codes 99291, 99292, 99295, 99296, 99297, and 
99298. When reporting CPT codes 99291 and 99292 the CPT requires that, 
in addition to the patient being critically ill or critically injured, 
and the physician devoting his or her full attention to the patient, 
``high complexity decision making to assess, manipulate, and support 
vital system function(s) to treat single or multiple vital organ system 
failure and/or to prevent further life-threatening deterioration of the 
patient's condition.'' These codes are valued at 4.0 work RVUs and 2.0 
work RVUs, respectively.
    The CPT goes on to state that--
    ``Although critical care typically requires interpretation of 
multiple physiologic parameters and/or application of advanced 
technology(s), critical care may be provided in life threatening 
situations when those elements are not present.''
    `` * * * Providing medical care to a critically ill, injured, or 
postoperative patient qualifies as a critical care service only if both 
the illness or injury and the treatment being provided, meet the above 
requirements.''
    As the code descriptors are written, the care described by the new 
CPT patient transport codes 99289 and 99290 do not meet the 
requirements for critical care. In fact, some services that will be 
reported as 99289 and 99290 would also be more appropriately reported 
as a new or established outpatient visit, an emergency visit, or as 
prolonged services, depending on the type of care that was delivered. 
We believe that the descriptors for CPT codes 99289 and 99290 will make 
it difficult for physicians to know when to report 99289 and 99290 
appropriately.
    Second, the beginning and ending times for 99289 and 99290 are 
unclear. We do not believe time spent in the referring and receiving 
facility should be counted towards this service. Time spent in the 
facility prior to and after transfer may not require any physician 
services even though the physician is face-to-face with the patient. 
Furthermore, if services are provided at the referring or receiving 
facility they should be billed as the appropriate E/M service (for 
example, new patient visit, emergency visit).
    Third, we note that the descriptors for 99289 and 99290 include the 
phrase `` * * * critically ill or injured patient'' while the 
descriptors for 99291 and 99292 include the phrase `` * * * critically 
ill or critically injured patient.'' We realize that CPT descriptors 
are carefully developed, so we are concerned about this discrepancy and 
believe it needs to be clarified.
    Fourth, we note that although CPT specifically includes (or 
bundles) certain services into critical care, it does not include those 
same services in the payment for 99289 and 99290 (for example, gastric 
intubation, temporary transcutaneous pacing).
    Therefore, after careful review of the descriptors and explanatory 
notes for CPT codes 99289 and 99290, we have decided to not recognize 
these codes for Medicare purposes. Instead, we have created two HCPCS 
Level II codes to describe critical care services provided to patients 
during inter-facility transport. These codes are:
    G0240--Critical Care Service delivered by a physician; face-to-
face, during inter-facility transport of a critically ill or critically 
injured patient: first 30-74 minutes of active transport. 
    G0240 will be valued at 4.0 work RVUs.
    G0241--each additional 30 minutes (list separately in addition to 
G0240)
    G0241 will be valued at 2.0 work RVUs.
    We believe that these two G codes carry out the intent of 99289 and 
99290 with less ambiguity and thus will facilitate accurate reporting 
of these services by physicians. We have decided to value these 
services at the present value for 99291 (4.0 work RVUs) and 99292 (2.0 
work RVUs). Although critical care is the most intense E/M service 
delivered by physicians, there is considerable variation in the 
intensity range of the services provided under the umbrella of critical 
care. We value all critical care services uniformly and do not believe 
there is a need to develop a

[[Page 55310]]

tiered approach to valuing critical care services.
    We will apply all the requirements for critical care services (CPT 
codes 99291 and 99292) to G0240 and G0241 with the following two 
exceptions: (1) All time counted towards patient transport time must be 
face-to-face time with the patient; (2) We will only allow face-to-face 
time spent in actual transport to be counted towards G0240 and G0241; 
E/M services delivered in the referring and receiving facilities may be 
reported under other appropriate E/M codes (for example, outpatient, 
emergency, or critical care services).
    If the actual transportation time is less than 30 minutes and/or 
the service does not meet the requirements of G0240 and G0241, then the 
physician may report his or her services under the appropriate E/M code 
(for example, outpatient visit, emergency visit, prolonged services).
    In order for G0240 and G0241 to be payable, the medical record must 
document the time spent in actual patient transport, the nature of the 
patient's critical illness or critical injury, and the critical care 
services delivered to the patient. Consistent with the teaching 
physician policies in section 15016 of the Medicare Carriers Manual, 
residents who provide this service are paid through graduate medical 
education payments. Therefore, their services are not payable through 
Medicare Part B.
    Any services delivered, or face-to-face time spent with the 
patient, by a resident, nurse, emergency medical technician, or other 
non-physician may not be billed using G0240 or G0241. Nor may any 
services performed by any physician or non-physician who is not 
physically present with the patient during interfacility transport be 
billed. Time spent in the referring facility, the receiving facility, 
and time spent prior to transport are not countable towards G0240 and 
G0241. Additionally, any time spent performing separately billable 
procedures may not be counted towards G0240 and G0241 (for example, 
insertion of chest tubes, insertion of intravenous lines and 
pacemakers, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation). All services bundled 
into 99291 and 99292 will also be bundled into G0240 and G0241.

Establishment of Interim Practice Expense Relative Value Units for New 
and Revised Physician's Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) Codes and 
New HCFA Common Procedure Coding System Codes for 2002

    We have developed a process for establishing interim practice 
expense RVUs (PERVUs) for new and revised codes that is similar to that 
used for work RVUs. Under this process, the RUC recommends the practice 
expense direct inputs, that is, the staff time, supplies and equipment 
associated with each new code. We then review the recommendations in a 
manner similar to our evaluation of the recommended work RVUs.
    The RUC recommendations on the practice expense inputs for the new 
and revised 2002 codes were submitted to us as interim recommendations. 
We, therefore, consider that these recommendations are still subject to 
further refinement by the PEAC, or by us, if it is determined that such 
future review is needed. We may also revisit these inputs in light of 
future decisions of the PEAC regarding supply and equipment packages 
and standardized approaches to pre- and postservice clinical staff 
times.
    We have accepted, at least in the interim, almost all of the 
practice expense recommendations submitted by the RUC for the codes 
listed in table 6, AMA RUC and HCPAC Work RVU Recommendations and CMS 
Decisions for New and Revised 2002 CPT Codes.'' We made the following 
minor changes to the inputs where relevant:
     We substituted the RUC agreed-upon multispecialty minimum 
visit supply package for the list of individual supplies where 
appropriate.
     We deleted separately billable supplies, for example, 
drugs, fluids, casting supplies, when listed in the recommended supply 
list.
     We rounded fractions of minutes of clinical staff time to 
the nearest minute.
     The RUC agreed with the specialty society representing 
neurology that the magnetoencephalography codes, CPT 95965, 95966, 
95967, are only performed in the facility setting and that they 
therefore had no direct practice expense inputs. However, we have 
subsequently heard from the specialty society that it has determined 
that a small number of practitioners do perform these services in the 
office setting and that there would be costs in that setting that 
should be reflected. We have accepted the suggestion that the TC of 
these codes be carrier-priced, at least until we can ascertain what 
direct cost inputs should be included when these services are performed 
in the non-facility setting.
     We are accepting the practice expense inputs recommended 
for CPT code 77418 (Intensity modulated treatment delivery, single or 
multiple fields/arcs, via narrow spatially and temporally modulated 
beams (binary, dynamic, MLC, etc.), per treatment session, with the 
exception of the time for the radiation therapist which we are reducing 
from the recommended 123 minutes to 60 minutes. We are concerned that 
there may be overlap in the staff time for other codes billed in 
conjunction with CPT code 77418, such as CPT code 76950 (Ultrasound 
guidance for placement of radiation therapy fields) and CPT code 77417 
(Therapeutic radiology port film(s)).
    Further, we understand that the code was valued assuming the 
typical time for the service was 60 minutes and included the time of 
two radiation therapists. We believe that the service commonly takes 
less than the recommended 123 minutes and it may involve only one 
therapist. As a result of these concerns, we are valuing the service 
using 60 minutes of radiation technician time. This valuation is 
considered interim during the refinement of practice expense RVUs. We 
also note that the practice expense RVUs for 77418 are being determined 
under the resource-based methodology even though the service has no 
physician work. We believe that the service will have a more 
appropriate relative payment amount if the practice expense RVUs are 
determined outside of the no work methodology.
     We did not receive a RUC recommendation for CPT code 
93613, Intracardiac electrophysiology, or CPT 96004, Gait and motion 
studies. We have assumed that these services are performed only in the 
facility setting and have no direct inputs.
    For the following CPT codes we did not receive practice expense 
recommendations. Therefore, we are providing practice expense inputs 
through crosswalking to an existing code as indicated below:

C. Other Changes to the 2002 Physician Fee Schedule and Clarification 
of CPT Definitions

    For the 2002 physician fee schedule, we are establishing or 
revising several alpha-numeric HCPCS codes for reporting certain 
services that are not clearly described by existing CPT codes.
    In addition to the two new HCPCS codes for patient transport we 
have discussed in section IV.B., ``Establishment of Interim Work 
Relative Value Units for New and Revised Physician's Current Procedural 
Terminology (CPT) Codes and New Healthcare Common Procedure Coding 
System Codes (HCPCS) for 2002'' above; we are also establishing the 
HCPCS codes for the respiratory therapy services below.

Respiratory Therapy Codes

    Respiratory therapists can deliver services incident to a 
physician's service or in a provider setting such as an outpatient 
hospital or a comprehensive outpatient rehabilitation facility. In the 
past, services delivered by respiratory therapists or other health 
professionals often have not been clearly described by the existing CPT 
codes. In order to clarify coding of these services, typically 
delivered by respiratory therapists, but at times delivered by other 
specially trained health professionals, we are instituting new G codes 
to describe these services.
    We developed three codes for use to describe services to improve 
respiratory function:

G0237  Therapeutic Procedures To Increase Strength or Endurance of 
Respiratory Muscles, Face-to-Face, One-on-One, Each 15 Minutes 
(Includes Monitoring).

    This service is to be billed when the therapist works with the 
patient to perform specific exercises aimed at strengthening the main 
and accessory muscles of respiration.
    We have provided a specific value for this code based upon the time 
that a respiratory therapist, who we believe will be the typical 
professional providing this service, will spend performing this service 
and practice expenses crosswalked from other similar services. This 
code will have no physician work.

G0238  Therapeutic Procedures To Improve Respiratory Function, Other 
Than Ones Described by G0237, One-on-One, Face-to-Face, per 15 Minutes 
(Includes Monitoring)

G0239  Therapeutic Procedures To Improve Respiratory Function, Two or 
More Patients Treated During the Same Period, Face-to-Face (Includes 
Monitoring)

    Codes G0237 and G0238 are billed in 15-minute increments. The 
method for ``counting'' the 15 minutes will be consistent with the 
method for counting minutes in many of the 97000 series CPT codes (see 
PM-01-68 for details). These codes would describe activities, such as 
monitored exercise, that improve respiratory function. Both G0238 and 
G0239 would be carrier-priced. The carriers have the authority to 
request information about the specific nature of the services 
delivered. CPT codes G0237-G0239 may not be billed with codes G0110 and 
G0111, which are restricted to services in the National Emphysema 
Treatment Trial (NETT), since they represent the same services.
    These codes are designed to provide more specific information about 
the services being delivered. The availability of codes for services to 
improve respiratory function will make billing of CPT codes 97000-97799 
inappropriate for professionals involved in treating respiratory 
conditions, unless these services are delivered by physical and 
occupational therapists and meet the other requirements for physical 
and occupational therapy services. We recognize that speech and 
language pathologists also occasionally treat patients to improve 
respiratory function as part of their treatment of speech and language 
disorders. Because the primary goal of these services is not to improve 
respiratory function, but to restore speech and communication, these 
services should be coded with 92507, ``treatment of speech, language, 
voice, communication, and/or auditory processing disorder (includes 
aural rehabilitation, individual).''

VI. Update of the Codes for the Physician Self-Referral Prohibition

    On January 4, 2001 we published in the Federal Register a final 
rule with comment period, ``Medicare and Medicaid Programs; Physicians' 
Referrals to Health Care Entities With Which They Have Financial 
Relationships'' (66 FR 856). That final rule incorporated into 
regulations the provisions in paragraphs (a), (b) and (h) of section 
1877 of the Social Security Act (the Act). Section 1877 of the Act 
prohibits a physician from referring a Medicare patient for certain 
``designated health services'' to a health care entity with which the 
physician (or a member of the physician's immediate family) has a 
financial relationship, unless an exception applies. In the final rule, 
we published an attachment listing all of the CPT and HCPCS codes that 
defined the entire scope of the following designated health services 
for purposes of section 1877 of the Act: clinical laboratory services; 
physical therapy services (including speech-language pathology 
services); occupational therapy services; radiology and certain other 
imaging services; and radiation therapy services and supplies.
    In the January 4, 2001 final rule, we stated that we would update 
the list of codes used to define these designated health services in an 
addendum to the annual final rule concerning physician fee schedule 
payment policies. Thus, we are now publishing an updated all-inclusive 
list of codes at Addendum E. We also will provide that update on our 
website at www.hcfa.gov/medlearn/refphys.htm. The purpose of this 
update is to conform the code list to the most recent publication of 
CPT and HCPCS codes. The list of codes will become effective on January 
4, 2002. We are using the January 4, 2002 date because that is the 
effective date for all but one provision of the January 4, 2001 
physician self-referral final rule (changes made to 42 CFR 424.22 in 
the final rule became effective on April 6, 2001). In future years, we 
intend to use a January 1 effective date to coincide with the effective 
date of the new CPT and HCPCS codes.
    Table 8, below, identifies the CPT and HCPCS codes that have been 
added to

[[Page 55312]]

or deleted from the list of codes published as an attachment to the 
January 4, 2001 physician self-referral final rule. In that final rule, 
we stated that we would consider timely comments regarding the updated 
code list. Accordingly, we will consider comments with respect to the 
codes listed in Table 8, below, if we receive them by the date 
specified in the date section of this final rule.

    Table 8 includes 2 codes (J1270 and J1755) that we have identified 
as dialysis-related outpatient prescription drugs. The physician self-
referral prohibition will not apply to these services if they meet the 
conditions set forth in Sec. 411.355(g) concerning the exception to the 
physician self-referral rule for EPO and other dialysis-related 
outpatient prescription drugs furnished in or by an ESRD facility. 
Table 8 also includes codes (G0202, 76085 and Q3018) that we have 
identified as screening tests and a vaccine. The physician self-
referral prohibition will not apply to these services if they meet the 
conditions at Sec. 411.355(h) concerning the exception for preventive 
screening tests, immunizations, and vaccines.
    We note that, in response to our January 4, 2001 final rule with 
comment, we received a number of comments regarding designated health 
services. We intend to address those comments in a second final rule 
regarding the physician self-referral prohibition.

VII. Physician Fee Schedule Update for Calendar Year 2002

A. Physician Fee Schedule Update

    The physician fee schedule update for 2002 is -4.8 percent. Under 
section 1848(d)(3) of the Act, the update is equal to 1 plus the 
product of the Medicare Economic Index (MEI) (divided by 100) and 1 
plus the update adjustment factor. For 2002, the MEI is equal to 2.6 
percent (1.026). A more detailed description of the MEI and its 
calculation follows. The update adjustment factor is equal to -7.0 
percent (0.930). Section 1848(d)(4)(F) of the Act requires an 
additional -0.2 percent (0.998) reduction to the update for 2002. Thus, 
the product of the MEI (1.026), the update adjustment factor (0.930), 
and the statutory adjustment factor (0.998) equals the 2002 update of -
4.8 percent (0.9523). The MEI and the update adjustment factor are 
described below.

B. The Percentage Change in the Medicare Economic Index

    The MEI measures the weighted-average annual price change for 
various inputs needed to produce physicians' services. The MEI is a 
fixed-weight input price index, with an adjustment for the change in 
economy-wide labor productivity. This index, which has 1996 base 
weights, is comprised of two broad categories--physician's own time and 
physician's practice expense.
    The physician's own time component represents the net income 
portion of business receipts and primarily reflects the input of the 
physician's own time into the production of physicians' services in 
physicians' offices. This category consists of two subcomponents--wages 
and salaries, and fringe benefits. These components are adjusted by the 
10-year moving average annual percent change in output per man-hour for 
the nonfarm business sector to reflect productivity growth in 
physicians' offices.
    The physician's practice expense category represents the rate of 
price growth in nonphysician inputs to the production of services in 
physicians' offices. This category consists of wages and salaries and 
fringe benefits for nonphysician staff and other nonlabor inputs. Like 
physician's own time, the nonphysician staff categories are adjusted 
for productivity using the 10-year moving average annual percent change 
in output per man-hour for the nonfarm business sector. The physician's 
practice expense component also includes the following categories of 
nonlabor inputs--office expense, medical materials and supplies, 
professional liability insurance, medical equipment, professional car, 
and other expense. Table 9 presents a listing of the MEI cost 
categories with associated weights and percent changes for price 
proxies for the 2002 update. The calendar year 2002 MEI is 2.6 percent.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ The rates of historical change are for the 12-month period
  endingJune 30, 2001, which is the period used for computing the
  calendar year 2002 update. The price proxy values are based upon the
  latest available Bureau of Labor Statistics data as of September 18,
  2001.
\2\ The weights shown for the MEI components are the 1996 base-year
  weights, which may not sum to subtotals or totals because of rounding.
  The MEI is a fixed-weight, Laspeyres-type input price index whose
  category weights indicate the distribution of expenditures among the
  inputs to physicians' services for calendar year 1996. To determine
  the MEI level for a given year, the price proxy level for each
  component is multiplied by its 1996 weight. The sum of these products
  (weights multiplied by the price index levels) over all cost
  categories yields the composite MEI level for a given year. The annual
  percent change in the MEI levels is an estimate of price change over
  time for a fixed market basket of inputs to physicians' services.
\3\ The Physician's Own Time and Nonphysician Employee Compensation
  category price measures include an adjustment for productivity. The
  price measure for each category is divided by the 10-year moving
  average of output per man-hour in the nonfarm business sector. For
  example, the fringe benefits component of the Physician's Own Time
  category is calculated by dividing the rate of growth in the
  employment cost index-benefits for private, nonfarm workers by the 10-
  year moving average rate of growth of output per man-hour for the
  nonfarm business sector. Dividing one plus the decimal form of the
  percent change in the employment cost index-benefits (1+.053=1.053) by
  one plus the decimal form of the percent change in the 10-year moving
  average of labor productivity(1+.020=1.020) equals one plus the change
  in the employment cost index-benefits for white collar workers net of
  the change in output per manhour (1.053/1.020=1.032). All Physician's
  Own Time and Nonphysician Employee Compensation categories are
  adjusted in this way. Due to a higher level of precision the computer
  calculated quotient may differ from the quotient calculated from
  rounded individual percent changes.
\4\ The measures of productivity, average hourly earnings, Employment
  Cost Indexes, as well as the various Producer and Consumer Price
  Indexes can be found on the Bureau of Labor Statistics website--http://stats.bls.gov.
\5\ Derived from a CMS survey of several major insurers (the latest
  available historical percent change data are for the period ending
  second quarter of 2001).
\n/a\ Productivity is factored into the MEI compensation categories as
  an adjustment to the price variables; therefore, no explicit weight
  exists for productivity in the MEI.

C. The Update Adjustment Factor

    Paragraphs (3) and (4) of section 1848(d)(3) of the Act indicate 
that the physician fee schedule update is equal to the product of the 
Medicare Economic Index and an ``update adjustment factor.'' The update 
adjustment factor is applied to the inflation update to reflect success 
or failure in meeting the expenditure target that the law refers to as 
``allowed expenditures.'' Allowed expenditures are equal to actual 
expenditures in a base period updated each year by the sustainable 
growth rate (SGR). The SGR is a percentage increase that is determined 
by a formula specified in section 1848(f) of the Act. The next section 
of this final rule describes the SGR and its calculation in detail. The 
update adjustment factor is determined based on a comparison of actual 
and allowed expenditures. For years beginning with 1999, the BBA 
required that the update adjustment factor be determined under section 
1848(d)(3) of the Act to equal--
     The difference between (1) the sum of the allowed 
expenditures for physicians' services (as determined under subparagraph 
(C)) for the period beginning April 1, 1997, and ending on March 31 of 
the year involved, and (2) the amount of actual expenditures for 
physicians' services furnished during the period beginning April 1, 
1997, and ending on March 31 of the preceding year; divided by--
     The actual expenditures for physicians' services for the 
12-month period ending on March 31 of the preceding year, increased by 
the sustainable growth rate under subsection (f) for the fiscal year 
which begins during such 12-month period.
    The BBRA made changes to the methodology for determining the 
physician fee schedule update beginning in 2001. In particular, it 
established that the methodology in section 1848(d)(3) of the Act would 
only be used for determining the physician fee schedule update for 1999 
and 2000; the physician fee schedule update for 2001 and subsequent 
years is determined under section 1848(d)(4) of the Act. While the 
general principle of adjusting the inflation update (the MEI) based on 
a comparison of actual and target expenditures (the update adjustment 
factor) is continuing, the BBRA made fundamental changes to the 
calculation of the update adjustment factor. These changes do two 
things. First, the measurement of actual

[[Page 55314]]

expenditures will occur on the basis of a calendar year rather than a 
April 1 to March 31 year. This essentially conforms the measurement of 
actual expenditures with other aspects of the SGR system that are also 
occurring on the basis of a calendar year as a result of BBRA 
amendments. As explained in our April 10, 2000 SGR notice (65 FR 
19000), the BBRA essentially changed the SGR system from one that 
spanned 3 different time periods (1--Measurement of actual expenditures 
on the basis of a April 1 to March 31 period; 2--calculation of the SGR 
rate of increase on a Federal fiscal year basis; and 3--application of 
the update on a calendar year basis) to one that spans only one time 
period (all three elements are computed on the basis of a calendar 
year). Second, it ensures that any deviation between cumulative actual 
expenditures and cumulative allowed expenditures will be corrected over 
several years rather than in a single year. This will result in less 
year-to-year volatility in the physician fee schedule update than will 
occur if adjustments to the update are made to bring expenditures in 
line with the target in one year.
    Under section 1848(d)(4)(A) of the Act, the physician fee schedule 
update for a year is equal to the product of--(1) 1 plus the 
Secretary's estimate of the percentage increase in the MEI for the 
year, and (2) 1 plus the Secretary's estimate of the update adjustment 
factor for the year. Under section 1848(d)(4)(B) of the Act, the update 
adjustment factor for a year beginning with 2001 is equal to the sum of 
the following--
     Prior Year Adjustment Component. An amount determined by--
    + Computing the difference (which may be positive or negative) 
between the amount of the allowed expenditures for physicians' services 
for the prior year (the year prior to the year for which the update is 
being determined) and the amount of the actual expenditures for such 
services for that year;
    + Dividing that difference by the amount of the actual expenditures 
for such services for that year; and
    + Multiplying that quotient by 0.75.
     Cumulative Adjustment Component. An amount determined by--
    + Computing the difference (which may be positive or negative) 
between the amount of the allowed expenditures for physicians' services 
from April 1, 1996 through the end of the prior year and the amount of 
the actual expenditures for such services during that period;
    + Dividing that difference by actual expenditures for such services 
for the prior year as increased by the sustainable growth rate for the 
year for which the update adjustment factor is to be determined; and
    + Multiplying that quotient by 0.33.
    Section 1848(d)(4)(D) of the Act indicates that the update 
adjustment factor determined under section 1848(d)(4)(B) for a year may 
not be less than -0.07 or greater than 0.03. At this time, we estimate 
that the sum of the prior year and cumulative adjustment components 
will be less than -0.07 limit. In a letter to the Medicare Payment 
Advisory Commission and in data we made available to the public on the 
CMS website in March, we indicated that the estimated update adjustment 
factor for 2002 would be -1.5 percent. However, we also indicated that 
a number of factors could change our estimate of the update adjustment 
factor. Since our March estimate, a number of factors have changed that 
lower our estimate of allowed expenditures and increase our estimate of 
actual expenditures. Allowed expenditures have declined because real 
per capita gross domestic product (GDP) growth for 2000 is lower than 
the estimates in March. This occurs because of changes to economic 
figures for 2000 made at the Bureau of Economic Analysis. Further, 
current estimates of real GDP per capita growth for 2001 and 2002 are 
lower than in March. We provide a more detailed explanation of factors 
that affect our estimate of allowed expenditures in the next section of 
this final regulation on the SGR. An explanation of changes to actual 
expenditures follows.
    As indicated above, we are currently estimating higher 2001 actual 
expenditures than we did in March. We did not have any Medicare claims 
data to develop our March estimates of actual expenditures for 2001. At 
this time, we are using claims received through June 30 to estimate 
actual expenditures for all of 2001. Based on the claims received in 
the first half of the year, our current estimates of actual 
expenditures for 2001 are higher than earlier estimates. We will be 
revising the measurement of actual expenditures for CY 2001 based on 
claims received through June 30, 2002. These revised figures will be 
determined no later than November 1, 2002. If the revised figures are 
different than current estimates, the difference will be reflected in 
the update adjustment factor used in determining the 2003 physician fee 
schedule update.
    After taking into account the factors described above that affect 
allowed and actual expenditures, we originally estimated that the 
update adjustment factor for 2002 would be -5.4 percent or 1.6 
percentage points more than the -7.0 percent limit on the update 
adjustment factor. However, in making updates to the list of codes that 
are included in the SGR, we discovered that a number of new procedure 
codes were inadvertently not included in the measurement of actual 
expenditures beginning in 1998. Therefore, the measurement of actual 
expenditures for 1998, 1999, and 2000 was lower than it should have 
been. As a result, the physician fee schedule update was higher in 2000 
and 2001 than if we had included these codes. Including these codes in 
the measurement of actual expenditures results in a lower update 
adjustment factor than we earlier estimated. We will be making no 
changes to physician fee schedule payments made for services furnished 
in 2000 and 2001. However, under section 1848(d) of the Act, we must 
include these codes in the measurement of actual expenditures for 
historical, current, and future periods. While we do not currently know 
the precise effect of not measuring expenditures for all codes included 
in the SGR on the update adjustment factor for 2002, we are certain 
that it is in excess of 1.6 percentage points and is of sufficient 
magnitude to result in the update adjustment factor being less than the 
-7.0 percent statutory limit. In the near future, we expect to complete 
this analysis and update information that we make available on the CMS 
website. We plan to provide complete data that show quarterly allowed 
and actual expenditures for all procedure codes included in the SGR, as 
well as a list of the codes themselves.
    Section 1848(d)(4)(A)(ii) of the Act indicates that 1 should be 
added to the update adjustment factor determined under section 
1848(d)(4)(B) of the Act. Thus, adding 1 to -0.070 makes the update 
adjustment factor equal to 0.930.
    (As indicated in the SGR discussion below, allowed expenditures 
through the end of CY 2001 will be revised one more time, not later 
than November 1, 2002. We will also be revising the measurement of 
actual expenditures for CY 2001 based on claims received through June 
30, 2002, not later than November 1, 2002. The SGR for 2001 will also 
be revised one more time, and the SGR for 2002 will be revised two more 
times. The resulting effect from revisions of estimates will be 
reflected in the update adjustment factor determined for 2003.)

VIII. Allowed Expenditures for Physicians' Services and the 
Sustainable Growth Rate

A. Medicare Sustainable Growth Rate

    Section 1848(f) of the Act, as amended by section 4503 of the BBA, 
replaced the Medicare Volume Performance Standard (MVPS) with a 
Sustainable Growth Rate (SGR). Section 1848(f)(2) of the Act specifies 
the formula for establishing yearly SGR targets for physicians' 
services under Medicare. The use of SGR targets is intended to control 
the actual growth in aggregate Medicare expenditures for physicians' 
services.
    The SGR targets are not limits on expenditures. Payments for 
services are not withheld if the SGR target is exceeded by actual 
expenditures. Rather, the appropriate fee schedule update, as specified 
in section 1848(d)(3) of the Act, is adjusted to reflect the success or 
failure in meeting the SGR target. If expenditures exceed the target, 
the update is reduced. If expenditures are less than the target, the 
update is increased.
    As with the MVPS, the statute specifies a formula to calculate the 
SGR based on our estimate of the change in each of four factors. The 
four factors for calculating the SGR are as follows--
    (1) The estimated change in fees for physicians' services.
    (2) The estimated change in the average number of Medicare fee-for-
service beneficiaries.
    (3) The estimated projected growth in real GDP per capita.
    (4) The estimated change in expenditures due to changes in law or 
regulations.
    Section 211 of the BBRA amended sections 1848(d) and 1848(f) of the 
Act with respect to the physician fee schedule update and the SGR. 
Section 211(b) of the BBRA maintains the formula for calculating the 
SGR, but amends section 1848(f)(2) of the Act to apply the SGR on a 
calendar year (CY) basis beginning with 2000 while maintaining the SGR 
on a fiscal year (FY) basis for FY 1998 through FY 2000. Specifically, 
section 1848(f)(2) of the Act, as amended by section 211(b) of the 
BBRA, states that ``* * * [t]he sustainable growth rate for all 
physicians' services for a fiscal year (beginning with fiscal year 1998 
and ending with fiscal year 2000) and a year beginning with 2000 shall 
be equal to the product of--
    (1) 1 plus the Secretary's estimate of the weighted average 
percentage increase (divided by 100) in the fees for all physicians' 
services in the applicable period involved,
    (2) 1 plus the Secretary's estimate of the percentage change 
(divided by 100) in the average number of individuals enrolled under 
this part (other than Medicare+Choice plan enrollees) from the previous 
applicable period to the applicable period involved,
    (3) 1 plus the Secretary's estimate of the projected percentage 
growth in real gross domestic product per capita (divided by 100) from 
the previous applicable period to the applicable period involved; and
    (4) 1 plus the Secretary's estimate of the percentage change 
(divided by 100) in expenditures for all physicians' services in the 
applicable period (compared with the previous applicable period) which 
will result from changes in law and regulations, determined without 
taking into account estimated changes in expenditures resulting from 
the update adjustment factor determined under section 1848 (d)(3)(B) or 
(d)(4)(B) of the Act, as the case may be, minus 1 and multiplied by 
100.''
    Under section 1848(f)(4)(C) of the Act, the term ``applicable 
period'' means--(1) a FY, in the case of FY 1998, FY 1999 and FY 2000, 
and (2) a CY with respect to a year beginning with 2000.
    Section 1848(d)(4)(C) of the Act requires us to make the transition 
from a FY SGR to a CY SGR in 1999 by using the FY 1999 SGR for the 
first 3 months of 1999 and the FY 2000 SGR for the 9-month period 
beginning April 1, 1999. Allowed expenditures for the year are equal to 
the sum of allowed expenditures for each respective period. The SGR for 
CY 2000 is then applied to allowed expenditures for CY 1999.
    As stated in the April 10, 2000 final notice (65 FR 19000), the 
BBRA requires the estimates of the FY 2000 and CY 2000 SGRs to be 
revised based on more recent data, but, as explained below, the BBRA 
does not provide for revision of either the FY 1998 or the FY 1999 SGR. 
This means that, for the transition to a calendar year SGR system, 
allowed expenditures for the period April 1, 1999 through December 31, 
1999 (determined by applying the FY 2000 SGR to allowed expenditures 
for the 12-month period ending March 31, 1999) are subject to change 
based on revision of the FY 2000 SGR; allowed expenditures for the 
period January 1, 1999 through March 31, 1999 (determined using the FY 
1999 SGR) are not subject to revision.
    In general, the BBRA requires us to publish SGRs for 3 different 
time periods, no later than November 1 of each year, using the best 
data available as of September 1 of each year. Under section 
1848(f)(3)(C)(i) of the Act, as added by section 211(b)(5) of the BBRA, 
the SGR is estimated and subsequently revised twice (beginning with the 
FY and CY 2000 SGRs) based on later data. Under section 
1848(f)(3)(C)(ii) of the Act, there are no further revisions to the SGR 
once it has been estimated and subsequently revised in each of the 2 
years following the initial estimate.
    The requirement of revisions to the SGR based on later data means 
that we will estimate and publish an SGR for the upcoming year, the 
contemporaneous year, and the preceding year by no later than November 
1 of each year. For example, by no later than November 1, 2002, we will 
publish an estimate of the SGR for CY 2003, a revision of the CY 2002 
SGR that is first being estimated in this notice, and a revision of the 
CY 2001 SGR first estimated in the final rule published on November 2, 
2000 (65 FR 65429) and revised in this final rule. Under section 
1848(f)(3)(C)(ii) of the Act, the final revision to the CY 2001 SGR 
will be announced in the Federal Register no later than November 1, 
2002.
    Subparagraphs (A) and (B) of section 1848(f)(3) of the Act, specify 
special rules with respect to the SGR and the CY 2001 and CY 2002 
updates. Section 1848(f)(3)(A) of the Act required us, no later than 
November 1, 2000, to revise the SGRs for FY 2000 and CY 2000 and to 
establish the SGR for CY 2001, based on the best data available, as of 
September 1, 2000. We published our first estimate of the SGRs for FY 
2000 and CY 2000 in a Federal Register notice on April 10, 2000 (65 FR 
19000). Revised estimates of the SGRs for FY 2000 and CY 2000 and our 
original estimate of the SGR for CY 2001 appeared in the Federal 
Register on November 1, 2000 (65 FR 65429). We used each of the SGRs 
published in the November 1, 2000 Federal Register to determine the 
physician fee schedule update for 2001. Section 1848(f)(3)(B) of the 
Act requires us, by no later than November 1, 2001, to revise the SGRs 
for FY 2000 and CYs 2000 and 2001 and establish the SGR for CY 2002, 
based on the best data available as of September 1, 2001 and to use 
each of these SGRs to determine the physician fee schedule update for 
2002. We are using each of the SGRs established in this notice to 
determine the 2002 physician fee schedule update. In accordance with 
section 1848(f)(3)(C)(ii) of the Act, there will be no further 
revisions to the FY 2000 and CY 2000 SGRs after the revisions we are 
making in this final rule.

B. Physicians' Services

    Section 1848(f)(4)(A) of the Act defines the scope of physicians' 
services

[[Page 55316]]

covered by the SGR. The statute indicates that the term ``physicians' 
services'' includes other items and services (such as clinical 
diagnostic laboratory tests and radiology services), specified by the 
Secretary, that are commonly performed or furnished by a physician or 
in a physician's office, but does not include services furnished to a 
Medicare+Choice plan enrollee. The BBA and BBRA made no changes to this 
definition which was also used for the MVPS. We published a definition 
of physicians' services for use in the MVPS and subsequent SGR in the 
Federal Register (61 FR 59717) on November 22, 1996. We defined 
``physicians' services'' to include many of the medical and other 
health services listed in section 1861(s) of the Act. Since the statute 
has made a number of changes to the definition of medical and other 
health services included in section 1861(s), we are updating our 
definition of physicians' services consistent with the statutory 
changes. Our practice has been to make adjustments to the SGR for 
medical and other health services added to the statute that meet the 
criterion of being ``commonly performed by a physician or a physicians' 
office.'' For instance, the BBA and the BIPA amended section 1861(s) of 
the Act to add new preventive benefits to the Medicare statute. Since 
these preventive services are generally provided by physicians or in 
physicians' offices, we made adjustments to the SGR to reflect 
additional Medicare expenditures for the newly-added Medicare benefits. 
Physicians' services for the SGR include the following medical and 
other health services if bills for the items and services are processed 
and paid by Medicare carriers:
     Physicians' services.
     Services and supplies furnished incident to physicians' 
services.
     Outpatient physical therapy services and outpatient 
occupational therapy services.
     Antigens prepared by or under the direct supervision of a 
physician.
     Services of physician assistants, certified registered 
nurse anesthetists, certified nurse midwives, clinical psychologists, 
clinical social workers, nurse practitioners, and clinical nurse 
specialists.
     Screening tests for prostate cancer, colorectal cancer, 
glaucoma.
     Screening mammography, screening pap smears and screening 
pelvic exams.
     Diabetes outpatient self-management training services.
     Medical nutrition therapy services.
     Diagnostic x-ray tests, diagnostic laboratory tests and 
other diagnostic tests.
     X-ray, radium, and radioactive isotope therapy.
     Surgical dressings, splints, casts, and other devices used 
for the reduction of fractures and dislocations.
     Bone mass measurements.

C. Provisions Related to the SGR

    Section 211(b)(1) of the BBRA amends section 1848(f)(1) of the Act 
to require that SGR estimates be published in the Federal Register not 
later than November 1 of every year. In this notice, we are publishing 
our initial estimate of the SGR for 2002, a revised estimate of the SGR 
for 2001 and final estimates of the SGRs for FY and CY 2000.
    In general, the update for a year is based on the Medicare Economic 
Index (MEI) as adjusted, within bounds, by the amount of actual 
expenditures for physicians' services compared to target (referred to 
as ``allowed'' in the statute) expenditures. A key difference between 
the MVPS and the SGR is that the comparison of actual and allowed 
expenditures is made on a cumulative basis under the SGR, while it was 
made on an annual basis under the MVPS. The ``update adjustment 
factor'' in section 1848(d)(4)(B) of the Act is an adjustment to the 
MEI that reflects the difference between actual expenditures and target 
expenditures.
    Section 1848(d)(3)(C) of the Act, as modified by the BBA, defines 
allowed expenditures for the 12-month period ending March 31, 1997 to 
be equal to actual expenditures for physicians' services during that 
period (that is, April 1, 1996 through March 31, 1997), as we have 
estimated. Section 1848(d)(3)(C) of the Act defines allowed 
expenditures for subsequent 12-month periods to be equal to allowed 
expenditures for physicians' services for the previous year increased 
by the SGR for the FY which begins during the 12-month period. For 
example, allowed expenditures for the 12-month period April 1, 1997 
through March 31, 1998 are equal to allowed expenditures for the 12 
months ending March 31, 1997, increased by the SGR for FY 1998. The 
BBRA subsequently provided for a transition to a calendar year SGR 
system in 1999. Allowed expenditures for the first quarter of 1999 are 
determined using the FY 1999 SGR and allowed expenditures for the April 
1, 1999 to December 31, 1999 period are determined using the FY 2000 
SGR. Allowed expenditures in 2000 are equal to 1999 allowed 
expenditures increased by the 2000 SGR. Allowed expenditures for each 
subsequent year will equal expenditures from the prior year updated by 
the SGR.
    Table 10 shows annual and cumulative allowed expenditures for 
physicians' services for each of the 12-month periods between April 1, 
1996 and March 31, 2000, for 1999 and 2000.

    Note: Allowed Expenditures for the first quarter of 1999 are 
based on the FY 1999 SGR and allowed expenditures for the last three 
quarters of 1999 are based on the FY 2000 SGR.

Allowed Expenditures in the First Year
    (April 1, 1996-March 31, 1997) are equal to actual expenditures. 
All subsequent figures are equal to quarterly allowed expenditure 
figures increased by the applicable SGR. Cumulative allowed 
expenditures are equal to the sum of annual allowed expenditures. We 
provide more detailed quarterly allowed and actual expenditure data on 
the CMS website under the Medicare Actuary's publications at the 
following address: http://www.hcfa.gov/pubforms/actuary/. We expect to 
update this information in November.
    Allowed expenditures for the April 1, 1999 through the December 31, 
1999 period are based on the FY 2000 SGR. As previously discussed, 
section 1848(f)(3) of the Act requires two revisions to the FY and CY 
2000 SGR. We made the first revision to the FY and CY 2000 SGR in the 
physician fee schedule final rule published in the Federal Register on 
November 1, 2000 (65 FR 65427). We are making the second and final 
revision in this final rule. Consistent with section 1848(f)(3)(B) of 
the Act, the revised FY and CY 2000 SGR uses the best data available to 
us as of September 1, 2001.

D. Preliminary Estimate of the SGR for 2002

    According to subparagraphs (A) through (D) of section 1848(f)(2) of 
the Act, as amended by section 211(b) of the BBRA, we have determined 
the preliminary estimate of the CY 2002 SGR to be 5.6 percent. We first 
estimated the CY 2002 SGR in March and made the estimate available to 
the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission and our website. Our March and 
current estimates of the four statutory factors are indicated in table 
11:

statutory factors are multiplied, not added, to produce the total 
(that is, 1.023  x  1.007  x  1.017  x  1.008 = 1.056.) A more 
detailed explanation of each figure is provided below in section 
H.1.

E. Sustainable Growth Rate for CY 2001

    According to subparagraphs (A) through (D) of section 1848(f)(2) of 
the Act, as amended by section 211(b) of the BBRA, our current estimate 
of the CY 2001 SGR is 6.1 percent. Table 12 shows our original estimate 
of the CY 2001 SGR published in the Federal Register on November 1, 
2000 (65 FR 65433) and current estimates of the four statutory factors 
that determine the CY 2001 SGR:

G. Sustainable Growth Rate for FY 2000

    According to subparagraphs (A) through (D) of section 1848(f)(2) of 
the Act, as amended by section 211(b) of the BBRA, our current estimate 
of the FY 2000 SGR is 6.9 percent. Table 14 shows estimates included in

H. Calculation of the FY 2000, CY 2000, CY 2001, and CY 2002 
Sustainable Growth Rates

1. Detail on the CY 2002 SGR
    A more detailed discussion of our preliminary estimates of the four 
elements of the 2002 SGR follows.
Factor 1--Changes in Fees for Physicians' Services (Before Applying 
Legislative Adjustments) for CY 2002
    This factor was calculated as a weighted average of the CY 2002 fee 
increases that apply for the different types of services included in 
the definition of physicians' services for the SGR.
    Physicians' services as defined in sections 1861(s)(1) and (2) of 
the Act represent approximately 89 percent of allowed charges for 
physicians' services under the SGR and are updated by the Medicare 
Economic Index (MEI). Our current estimate of the MEI for 2002 is 2.6 
percent. Diagnostic laboratory tests represent approximately 11 percent 
of the Medicare allowed charges for physicians' services under the SGR. 
The BBA provided for a 0.0 percent update for CY 2002 for laboratory 
services. Table 15 shows both the physicians' and laboratory service 
updates that were used to determine the percentage increase in 
physicians' fees for CY 2002.

                                Table 15
------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                     Weight      Update
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Physician........................................        0.89        2.6
Laboratory.......................................        0.11        0.0
Weighted Average.................................        1.0         2.3
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    After taking into account the elements described in the table, we 
estimate that the weighted-average increase in fees for CY 2002 for 
physicians' services under the SGR (before applying any legislative 
adjustments) will be 2.3 percent.
Factor 2--The Percentage Change in the Average Number of Part B 
Enrollees From CY 2001 to CY 2002
    This factor is our estimate of the percent change in the average 
number of

[[Page 55318]]

fee-for-service enrollees for CY 2002 as compared to CY 2001 
Medicare+Choice (M+C) plan enrollees, whose Medicare-covered medical 
care is outside the scope of the SGR, and who are excluded from this 
estimate. Our actuaries estimate that the average number of Medicare 
Part B fee-for-service enrollees (excluding beneficiaries enrolled in 
M+C plans) will increase by 0.7 percent in calendar year 2002. This 
estimate was derived by subtracting estimated M+C enrollment from 
estimated overall Medicare enrollment as illustrated in table 16.

                                Table 16
                              [In millions]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                       2001       2002
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Overall...........................................     37.828     38.149
Medicare+Choice...................................      5.662      5.761
Net...............................................     32.166     32.388
Percent Increase:.................................  .........        0.7
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Since 2002 has yet to begin, we currently only have estimates of 
this figure for 2002. An important factor affecting fee-for-service 
enrollment is beneficiary enrollment in Medicare+Choice plans. At this 
time, we do not know how actual enrollment in Medicare+Choice plans 
will compare to current estimates. While we do receive information on 
whether a Medicare+Choice plan will continue to participate or withdraw 
from the program, it remains difficult to estimate the number of 
beneficiaries who will select a Medicare+Choice plan or fee-for-service 
before the start of the calendar year. While some plans will no longer 
offer a Medicare+Choice plan, other plans are available as an option to 
most beneficiaries in areas where there have been plan withdrawals. It 
is difficult to estimate the size of the Medicare+Choice enrollee 
population before the start of a calendar year. Because we determine 
the fee-for-service enrollment figure net of the change in 
Medicare+Choice enrollment, early estimates of this factor are 
difficult to make. Our estimate of this factor is preliminary and only 
has minimal effect on the physician fee schedule update for CY 2002. 
The CY 2002 SGR will also be used in the calculation of the 2003 
physician fee schedule update in a final rule to be published no later 
than November 1, 2002. By that time, we will have information on actual 
enrollment in Medicare+Choice plans for the first 8 months of CY 2002 
and will be better able to predict the change in fee-for-service 
enrollment for the year.
Factor 3--Estimated Real Gross Domestic Product Per Capita Growth in CY 
2002
    Section 1848(f)(2)(C) of the Act, as amended by section 211 of the 
BBRA, requires us to estimate growth in real GDP per capita. This 
factor is applied on a CY basis beginning with the CY 2000 SGR. We 
estimate that the growth in real per capita GDP will be 1.7 percent in 
CY 2002. Our past experience indicates that there have also been large 
changes in estimates of real per capita GDP growth and the actual 
change in this factor. It is likely that this figure will change 
further as actual information on economic performance becomes available 
to us in 2002. Again, we note that we will use revised estimates of 
real per capita GDP growth in setting future year updates.
Factor 4--Percentage Change in Expenditures for Physicians' Services 
Resulting From Changes in Law or Regulations in CY 2002 Compared With 
CY 2001
    Sections 101 through 104 of BIPA added Medicare coverage for 
screening glaucoma, authorized Medicare to pay for specific new 
technology mammography services, and changed coverage for screening pap 
smears, screening pelvic exams, and screening colonoscopy for average-
risk individuals. In addition, section 105 of the BIPA also establishes 
a new benefit for medical nutrition therapy and expands access to 
telehealth services in section 223. Section 432 of the BIPA also 
requires that Medicare make payment to Indian Health Service hospitals 
and ambulatory clinics for physicians' and practitioners' services as 
well as outpatient physical and occupational therapy services that are 
included in the definition of physicians' services for purposes of the 
SGR. Since these provisions will increase Medicare expenditures for 
services that are included in the SGR, we are making an upward 
adjustment to reflect additional Medicare expenditures in 2002. Our 
estimates of the cost of these provisions for the period FY 2002-FY 
2006 are included in our Notice of Proposed Rulemaking published in the 
Federal Register on August 2, 2001 (66 FR 40400).
    We are making an adjustment to the SGR for one additional factor. 
In section VI.B. of this final rule, we provided a definition of 
physicians' services for purposes of the SGR. Historically, we have not 
measured expenditures for screening mammography under the SGR. However, 
section 1848(f)(4) of the Act indicates that ``physicians'' services 
includes other items and services (such as clinical diagnostic 
laboratory tests and radiology services), specified by the Secretary, 
that are commonly performed or furnished by a physician or in a 
physician's office.'' Screening mammography services are ``radiology 
services'' that are performed by ``physicians or in a physician's 
office.'' As a result, we are using this rule to add screening 
mammography to the list of services that are part of the SGR 
definition. Since we have not previously measured expenditures for 
screening mammography services under the SGR, it is appropriate to make 
an adjustment to this factor for the change to the definition of 
physicians' services. We are making an adjustment that reflects 
estimated payments for screening mammography services in CY 2002. We 
will make a subsequent revision based on actual expenditures for 
screening mammography.
    After taking these provisions into account, the percentage change 
in expenditures for physicians' services resulting from changes in law 
or regulations is estimated to be 0.8 percent for 2002. In March, we 
estimated that this figure would be 1.5 percent. The 0.7 percentage 
point difference is due to a change in our estimate of the BIPA 
provisions. In March, we had no information about implementation of 
these provisions. We used updated assumptions about pricing and 
utilization based on proposed policies published in the August 2, 2001 
proposed rule (66 FR 40400).
2. Detail on the CY 2001 SGR
    A more detailed discussion of our current estimates of the four 
elements of the 2001 SGR follows.
Factor 1--Changes in Fees for Physicians' Services (Before Applying 
Legislative Adjustments) for CY 2001
    We are continuing to use 1.9 percent for this element of the SGR 
for the CY 2001 SGR. This factor is unchanged from earlier estimates 
previously described for CY 2001 in the November 1, 2000 Federal 
Register (65 FR 65433).
Factor 2--The Percentage Change in the Average Number of Fee-for-
Service Part B Enrollees From CY 2000 to CY 2001
    This factor is our estimate of the percent change in the average 
number of fee-for-service enrollees for CY 2001 as compared to CY 2000. 
As we indicated above, this factor is difficult to estimate prior to 
the beginning of the period for which the estimates are being made 
because of the interaction of the fee-for-service and Medicare+Choice 
program and the lack of availability of actual data

[[Page 55319]]

on beneficiary selection of Medicare+Choice enrollment. We currently 
have information on actual enrollment in the Medicare+Choice program 
for CY 2001 and CY 2000 that permits estimates of the change in fee-
for-service enrollment for these years that will be more reflective of 
the final actual enrollment and percent year-to-year change. The 
estimates for CY 2000 and CY 2001 were derived by subtracting estimated 
M+C enrollment from estimated overall Medicare enrollment as 
illustrated in table 17.

                                Table 17
                              [In millions]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                       2000       2001
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Overall...........................................     37.453     37.828
Medicare+Choice...................................      6.233      5.662
Net...............................................     31.221     32.166
Percent Increase..................................  .........        3.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Our actuaries estimate of the percent change in the average number 
of fee-for-service enrollees net of Medicare+Choice enrollment for 2001 
compared to 2000 of 3.0 percent is more than our early estimate of this 
factor (0.9 percent for CY 2001 from the November 1, 2000 Federal 
Register (65 FR 65433)) because the historical base from which our 
actuarial estimate is made has changed. We currently have complete 
information on Medicare fee-for-service enrollment for 2000 that is 
lower than the figure we used one year ago. Further, we now have 
information on actual fee-for-service enrollment for the first 8 months 
of 2001. This figure is slightly higher than the figure used in the 
November 1, 2000 Federal Register (65 FR 65433). We would caution that 
our estimate of fee-for-service enrollment for 2001 may change once we 
have complete information for the entire year.
Factor 3--Estimated Real Gross Domestic Product Per Capita Growth in CY 
2001
    Section 1848(f)(2)(C) of the Act, as amended by section 211 of the 
BBRA, requires us to estimate growth in real GDP per capita. We 
estimate that the growth in real per capita GDP will be 0.7 percent in 
CY 2001. There have also been large changes in initial estimates of 
real per capita GDP growth and the actual change in this factor. There 
could be further changes in this factor once we have complete 
information on economic performance for the entire year. Again, we note 
that we will use revised estimates of real per capita GDP growth in 
setting future year updates.
Factor 4--Percentage Change in Expenditures for Physicians' Services 
Resulting From Changes in Law or Regulations in CY 2001 Compared With 
CY 2000
    As described above, the BIPA makes changes to the Act that affect 
Medicare expenditures for services that are included in the SGR. Some 
of these provisions have no effect on Medicare expenditures in 2001 
because they do not go into effect until 2002. Other provisions are 
effective at some time during 2001. Provisions that become effective in 
2001 relate to new technology mammography and coverage changes for 
screening pap smears, screening pelvic exams and screening colonoscopy, 
expanded access to telehealth services and Medicare payment for 
services provided in Indian Health Service hospitals and clinics. After 
taking these provisions into account, the percentage change in 
expenditures for physicians' services resulting from changes in law or 
regulations is estimated to be 0.4 percent for 2001.

3. Detail on Calculation of the FY 2000 and CY 2000 SGRs

    A more detailed discussion of our revised estimates of the four 
elements of the FY 2000 and CY 2000 SGRs follows.
Factor 1--Changes in Fees for Physicians' Services (Before Applying 
Legislative Adjustments) for FY 2000 SGR and CY 2000 SGR
    We are continuing to use 2.1 percent for this element of the SGR 
for the FY 2000 SGR and the CY 2000 SGR. This factor is unchanged from 
earlier estimates previously described respectively for FY 2000 and CY 
2000 in the October 1, 1999 Federal Register (64 FR 53395), the April 
10, 2000 Federal Register (65 FR 19003) and the August 2, 2001 Federal 
Register (66 FR 40397).
Factor 2--The Percentage Change in the Average Number of Fee-for-
Service Part B Enrollees for the FY 2000 SGR and CY 2000 SGR
    This factor is our estimate of the percent change in the average 
number of fee-for-service enrollees for FY 2000 as compared to FY 1999 
and CY 2000 as compared to CY 1999. We currently have complete 
information on actual enrollment in the Medicare+Choice program for FY 
2000 and CY 2000 that permits a measure of change in fee-for-service 
enrollment for these years that reflects the actual change. The 
estimates for CY 2000 were derived by subtracting estimated M+C 
enrollment from estimated overall Medicare enrollment as illustrated in 
table 18.

                                Table 18
                              [In millions]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                       1999       2000
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Overall...........................................     37.115     37.453
Medicare+Choice...................................      6.191      6.233
Net...............................................     30.923     31.221
Percent Increase..................................  .........        1.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Our actuaries' estimate of the percent change in the average number 
of fee-for-service enrollees net of Medicare+Choice enrollment for 2000 
compared to 1999 of 1.0 percent is the same as our estimate of this 
factor at this time last year (1.0 percent). However, the current 
estimate of 0.5 percent for FY 2000 is lower than the 0.8 percent 
estimate of this factor at this time last year.
Factor 3--Estimated Real Gross Domestic Product Per Capita Growth in FY 
2000 and CY 2000
    We estimate that real GDP per capita growth will be 3.6 percent for 
FY 2000 and 3.2 percent for CY 2000. In the FY 2000 SGR notice 
published on October 1, 1999 (64 FR 53396), we estimated that real GDP 
per capita growth for FY 2000 would be 1.8 percent. In our April 10, 
2000 SGR notice, we estimated that real GDP per capita growth for CY 
2000 would be 2.5 percent. In our November 1, 2000 final rule (65 FR 
65433), we estimated that real GDP per capita growth would be 4.5 
percent for FY 2000 and 4.3 percent CY 2000. The final figures that we 
will use for this factor are 3.6 percent for FY 2000 and 3.2 percent 
for CY 2000. The latest figures on real GDP per capita growth are 
approximately one percentage point less than estimated last year. The 
lower estimates are due to annual revisions of the National Income and 
Product Accounts (NIPA) by the Bureau of Economic Analysis. Usually, in 
annual revisions of the NIPA, new estimates incorporate source data 
that are more complete, more detailed, and otherwise more appropriate 
than those that were previously incorporated. In addition, several 
methodological changes have been made. (For detailed description of the 
NIPA revisions, see Brent R. Moulton, Eugene P. Seskin, and David F. 
Sullivan, ``Annual Revision of the National Income and Product 
Accounts: Annual Estimates, 1998-2000, Quarterly Estimates, 1998: 1-
2000: I, Survey of Current Business'' (August, 2001): 7-32.)

[[Page 55320]]

Factor 4--Percentage Change in Expenditures for Physicians' Services 
Resulting From Changes in Law or Regulations in FY 2000 Compared with 
FY 1999, and CY 2000, Compared With CY 1999
    As we explained in our October 1, 1999 and April 10, 2000 SGR 
notices, legislative changes contained in the BBA and the BBRA will 
have an impact on expenditures for physicians' services under the SGR 
in FY 2000 and CY 2000. Section 4103 of the BBA mandates a new prostate 
screening benefit effective January 1, 2000. Additionally, effective 
January 1, 2000, section 4513 of the BBA removes the requirement that a 
subluxation of the spine be demonstrated by an x-ray before Medicare 
payment can be made for chiropractic services furnished to a 
beneficiary. This provision will also result in a small increase in 
expenditures in FY 2000 and CY 2000. The impact of BBA Medicare 
Secondary Payer provisions will have small marginal impact on reducing 
expenditures in FY 2000 and CY 2000.
    Certain BBRA provisions also have a small impact on expenditures in 
FY 2000 and CY 2000. Section 224 of the BBRA increases payments for pap 
smears and is slightly increasing expenditures. Section 221 of the BBRA 
postponed the implementation of payment caps on physical and 
occupational therapy and speech-language pathology services. The effect 
of this provision on physicians and independent practitioners is a 
small increase in expenditures for these years. Medicare expenditures 
for outpatient physical and occupational therapy services by therapists 
in independent practice are growing rapidly as a result of provisions 
of section 4541 of the BBA that require Medicare to make payments for 
facility-based therapy services under the physician fee schedule. 
Physical and occupational therapy services previously paid on the basis 
of a cost report through the Medicare fiscal intermediaries are more 
likely to be billed by therapists in independent practice because these 
services are no longer being paid on a cost basis. We analyzed growth 
in Medicare expenditures for physical and occupational therapy and 
believe that the larger rate of increase in Medicare expenditures for 
these services billed to carriers is likely a result of the statutory 
provisions that require the services to be paid under the Medicare 
physician fee schedule. We are making an upward adjustment to the SGR 
for this factor.
    After taking into account these provisions, the percentage change 
in expenditures for physicians' services resulting from changes in law 
or regulations is estimated to be 0.6 percent for FY 2000 and 0.8 
percent for CY 2000.

IX. Calculation of the 2002 Physician Fee Schedule and Anesthesia 
Conversion Factor

    The 2002 physician fee schedule conversion factor is $36.1992. The 
separate 2002 national average anesthesia conversion factor is $16.60.
    The specific calculations to determine the physician fee schedule 
and anesthesia conversion factor for calendar year 2002 are explained 
below.

Detail on Calculation of the Calendar Year 2002 Physician Fee Schedule 
Conversion Factor

     Physician Fee Schedule Conversion Factor
    Under section 1848(d)(1)(A) of the Act, the physician fee schedule 
conversion factor is equal to the conversion factor for the previous 
year multiplied by the update determined under section 1848(d)(4) of 
the Act. In addition, section 1848(c)(2)(B)(ii)(II) of the Act requires 
that changes to relative value units (RVUs) cannot cause expenditures 
to increase or decrease by more than $20 million from the amount of 
expenditures that would have been made if such adjustments had not been 
made. We implement this requirement through a uniform budget neutrality 
adjustment to the conversion factor. There are two changes that will 
require us to make an adjustment to the conversion factor to comply 
with the budget neutrality requirement in section 1848(c)(2)(B)(ii)(II) 
of the Act. We are making a 0.460 percent reduction (0.9954) in the 
conversion factor to account for the increase in work RVUs resulting 
from the 5-year review. We are also making a 0.18 percent (0.9982) 
reduction in the conversion factor to account for an anticipated 
increase in the volume and intensity of services in response to the 
final year of the implementation of resource-based practice expense 
RVUs. As a result of the 5-year review of RVUs and additional budget-
neutrality adjustments required by law, the conversion factor is 5.4 
percent lower than last year's conversion factor.
    The two budget neutrality factors are applied after the update is 
applied to the 2001 conversion factor:

     Anesthesia Fee Schedule Conversion Factor
    Section 1848(b)(2)(B) of the Act indicates that, to the extent 
practicable, the Secretary will use the anesthesia relative value guide 
with appropriate adjustment of the conversion factor, in a manner to 
assure that the fee schedule amounts for anesthesia services are 
consistent with the fee schedule amounts for other services. The 
statute also requires the Secretary to adjust the conversion factor by 
geographic adjustment factors in the same manner as for other physician 
fee schedule services. Unlike other physician fee schedule services, 
anesthesia services are paid using a system of base and time units. The 
base and time units are summed and multiplied by a conversion factor. 
The base unit is fixed depending upon the type of anesthesia procedure 
performed, and the time units will vary based on the length of the 
anesthesia time associated with the surgical procedure. Thus, 
Medicare's payment will increase as anesthesia time lengthens. The same 
anesthesia service provided in two different surgeries will be paid 
different amounts if the associated anesthesia time is different. This 
system differs from other physician fee schedule services where payment 
is determined based on the product of RVUs and a conversion factor; 
payment for a given procedure will not vary based on the length of time 
it takes to perform the procedure in a specific instance.
    Since anesthesia services do not have RVUs like other physician fee 
schedule services, we have had to make appropriate adjustments to the 
anesthesia fee schedule conversion factor to simulate changes to RVUs. 
We modeled the resource-based practice expense methodology using 
imputed anesthesia RVUs that were made comparable to other physician 
fee schedule services. As a result of modeling these changes, we are 
incorporating a 1.89 percent reduction (0.9811) to the anesthesia fee 
schedule conversion factor. We are incorporating an additional increase 
of 0.2 percent (1.002) to account for base unit revisions for 2002, 
both for the five-year review and for the alignment of CMS base units 
with ASA base units. All other adjustments (physician fee schedule 
update, adjustment for 5-year review of

[[Page 55321]]

physician work, adjustment for volume and intensity changes) made to 
the anesthesia fee schedule conversion factor are the same as those 
applied to the physician fee schedule. To determine the anesthesia fee 
schedule conversion factor for 2002, we used the following figures:

X. Provisions of the Final Rule

    The provisions of this final rule restate the provisions of the 
August 2001 proposed rule, except as noted elsewhere in the preamble. 
Following is a highlight of the changes made from the proposed rule:
    For screening glaucoma, we are revising the regulation in 
Sec. 410.23(a)(2) to read ``Eligible beneficiary means individuals in 
the following high risk categories.'' This should allow us to more 
easily add high-risk groups by rulemaking should the medical evidence 
warrant it.
    For G0117 Glaucoma Screening for High Risk Patients Furnished by an 
Optometrist or Ophthalmologist, we will assign 0.45 work RVUs, .02 
malpractice RVUs, and we will crosswalk practice expense inputs from 
CPT code 92012.
    For G0118 Glaucoma Screening for High Risk Patients Furnished Under 
the Direct Supervision of an Optometrist or Ophthalmologist, we will 
assign 0.17 work RVUs and 0.01 malpractice RVUs. For practice expense, 
we will also crosswalk this code to CPT code 92012.
    For medical nutrition therapy, we made various changes in response 
to comments received. For detailed information, see section III.G.
    For telehealth services section 1834(m)(3) of the Act specifies 
that sections 1842(b)(18)(A) and (B) apply to physicians and 
practitioners receiving payment for telehealth services and to 
originating sites receiving a facility fee, in the same manner as they 
apply to practitioners. This section requires that payment for these 
services may only be made on an assignment-related basis. We did not 
reflect this provision in the proposed rule. Nonetheless, because this 
requirement is required by the plain language of the law and because we 
are without discretion with respect to its application, we are 
implementing it in this final rule in new Sec. 414.65(d).

Other Issues

    Included in the comments we received were issues and topics that 
were not specifically included as proposals in the August 2, 2001 
proposed rule such as coding issues on specific services, the need to 
expand dissemination of information on Medicare benefits and a variety 
of other topics. While we do not address these specifically in this 
rule, we will ensure that the appropriate CMS components are aware of 
the concerns expressed and would hope that these concerns can be 
addressed through appropriate channels.

XI. Collection of Information Requirements

    Under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995, we are required to 
provide 30-day notice in the Federal Register and solicit public 
comment before a collection of information requirement is submitted to 
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval. In 
order to fairly evaluate whether an information collection should be 
approved by OMB, section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction Act 
of 1995 requires that we solicit comment on the following issues:
     The need for the information collection and its usefulness 
in carrying out the proper functions of our agency.
     The accuracy of our estimate of the information collection 
burden.
     The quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be 
collected.
     Recommendations to minimize the information collection 
burden on the affected public, including automated collection 
techniques.
    We are soliciting public comment on each of these issues for 
Sec. 410.132 in this document, which contains information collection 
requirements.
    Paragraph (c) of this section requires a referring physician or 
practitioner to maintain referral documentation in the beneficiary's 
medical record for each referral.
    We believe the burden associated with these provisions is exempt in 
accordance with 5 CFR 1320.3(b)(2) because the time, effort, and 
financial resources necessary to comply with these requirements would 
be incurred by referring physicians and practitioners in the normal 
course of business activities.
    If you comment on these information collection and recordkeeping 
requirements, please mail copies directly to the following:

Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, Office of Information 
Services, Information Technology Investment Management Group, Attn.: 
John Burke, CMS-1169-FC, Room N2-14-26, 7500 Security Boulevard, 
Baltimore, MD 21244-1850.
Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and 
Budget, Room 10235, New Executive Office Building, Washington, DC 
20503, Attn: Allison Eydt, CMS Desk Officer.

XII. Response to Comments

    Because of the large number of items of correspondence we normally 
receive on Federal Register documents published for comment, we are not 
able to acknowledge or respond to them individually. We will consider 
all comments we receive by the date and time specified in the DATES 
section of this preamble, and, if we proceed with a subsequent 
document, we will respond to the comments in the preamble to that 
document.

XIII. Regulatory Impact Analysis

    We have examined the impact of this final rule as required by 
Executive Order 12866, the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) 
(Pub. L. 104-4), the Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 (RFA) (Pub. L. 
96-354), and Executive Order 13132 of August 4, 1999 (Federalism).
    EO 12866 directs agencies to assess costs and benefits of available 
regulatory alternatives and, when regulation is necessary, to select 
regulatory approaches that maximize net benefits (including potential 
economic, environmental, public health and safety effects, distributive 
impacts, and equity). A regulatory impact analysis (RIA) must be 
prepared for major rules with economically significant effects ($100 
million or more annually). While the changes in the Medicare physician 
fee schedule are, for the most part, budget neutral, they do involve 
redistribution of Medicare spending among procedures and physician 
specialties. The redistributive effect of this rule on any particular 
specialty is in our estimate likely to exceed $100 million for at least 
one specialty group. For this reason we are considering this a major 
economic rule.
    However, it is important to note, as indicated in section VII of 
this preamble, the physician fee update for 2002 under section 1848(d) 
of the Act is -4.8 percent of an estimated $41.2 billion in physician 
expenditures for 2001. Even though the physician fee schedule update is 
-4.8 percent, we project that the total Medicare

[[Page 55322]]

expenditures for physicians' services will increase from $41.2 billion 
to $41.7 billion in 2002.
    The UMRA also requires (in section 202) that agencies prepare an 
assessment of anticipated costs and benefits before developing any rule 
that may result in expenditure in any one year by State, local, or 
tribal governments, in the aggregate, or by the private sector, of $110 
million or more. We have determined that this rule has no consequential 
effect on State, local, or tribal governments. We believe the private 
sector cost of this rule falls below the above-stated threshold as 
well.
    The RFA requires that we analyze regulatory options for small 
businesses and other small entities. We prepare a Regulatory 
Flexibility Analysis unless we certify that a rule would not have a 
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. 
The analysis must include a justification concerning the reason action 
is being taken, the kinds and number of small entities the rule 
affects, and an explanation of any meaningful options that achieve the 
objectives and lessen significant adverse economic impact on the small 
entities.
    In addition, section 1102(b) of the Act requires us to prepare a 
regulatory impact analysis if a rule may have a significant impact on 
the operations of a substantial number of small rural hospitals. This 
analysis must conform to the provisions of section 604 of the RFA. For 
purposes of section 1102(b) of the Act, we define a small rural 
hospital as a hospital that is located outside of a Metropolitan 
Statistical Area and has fewer than 100 beds.
    For purposes of the RFA, all physicians are considered to be small 
entities. There are about 700,000 physicians and other practitioners 
who receive Medicare payment under the physician fee schedule.
    For the purpose of EO 12866 and the RFA we have prepared the 
following analysis, which, together with the rest of this preamble, 
meets all four assessment requirements. It explains the rationale for 
and purpose of the rule, details the costs and benefits of the rule, 
analyzes alternatives, and presents the measures we considered to 
minimize the burden on small entities.

A. 5 Year Review of Physician Work and Resource-Based Practice Expense 
Relative Value Units

    Revisions in physician work and resource-based practice expense 
RVUs for physicians' services are required by law to be budget neutral. 
We calculate total payments from the revisions to work and practice 
expense relative value units such that total payments do not change 
more than $20 million as a result of the revisions. Increases in 
payments for some services are necessarily offset by decreases in 
payments for other services. For revisions to physician work values 
that are occuring as part of the 5-year review, we are making a budget 
neutrality adjustment to the physician fee schedule conversion factor. 
For practice expense, we adjust all the practice expense RVUs upwards 
or downwards to meet the budget neutrality requirement in the statute. 
This means that increases in practice expense RVUs for some services 
will be offset by corresponding decreases in values for other services. 
We showed the impact of proposed changes in physician work and practice 
expense RVUs in our Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in the Federal 
Register on August 2, 2001 (65 FR 40397). Table 21 shows the impact on 
total allowed charges by specialty of this final rule's physician work 
and practice expense RVU changes. We are showing the impact of the 
proposed rule changes as well additional changes that are occurring as 
a result of this final rule. There are five changes we are adopting in 
this final rule that result in changes to the impacts displayed in the 
proposed rule. Table 21 incorporates additional impacts that result 
from using 2000 utilization data to determine the resource-based 
practice expense RVUs. This change has a very modest effect on payment 
for nearly all specialties. Based on public comments to our notice of 
proposed rulemaking, we have also made changes to physician work RVUs 
that were part of the 5-year review. These changes will increase 
payments to Gastronterology, General Surgery, Obstetrics and Gynecology 
and Podiatry. We also incorporated revised physician time data supplied 
to us by the Relative Value Update Committee (RUC). Relative to the 
physician times used in our proposed rule, there were slight 
refinements to some codes. With the exception of Nephrology, the new 
times have virtually no impact on specialty level payments. Nephrology 
payments will go up as a result of using new physician times supplied 
to us by the RUC. The RUC supplied us with a time of 186 minutes for 
the highest volume nephrology procedure code, 90921. This compared to a 
physician time of 153 minutes that was previously used. Finally, we 
also incorporated refinements to the practice expense inputs that are 
being recommended by the Practice Expense Advisory Committee (PEAC) and 
the RUC. These changes will result in a reduction in average payments 
to rheumatology of about 6 percent. This occurs primarily as a result 
of refinements to 4 codes that are frequently performed by 
rheumatologists (20610, 20550, 20605 and 20600). Based on the PEAC and 
RUC comments, we made changes to the practice expense inputs that 
result in a reduction in relative payments for these procedure codes. 
Other specialties that will experience a smaller reduction in payments 
as a result of the practice expense refinements for 2002 are Orthopedic 
Surgery, Podiatry and Urology. Since the changes are budget neutral, 
the reductions in practice expense RVUs will be offset by increases in 
practice expense payments that will be broadly distributed among other 
physician specialties.
    Table 21 shows the impact of this final rule compared to the 
proposed rule that was published on August 2, 2001. We note that the 
table shows the impact of this rule only and does not incorporate 
practice expense changes from three other final rules, November 2, 1998 
(63 FR 58895), November 2, 1999 (64 FR 59433) and November 1, 2000 (65 
FR 65377). The table shows the average specialty change in payments in 
CY 2002 that are occurring as a result of this final rule relative to 
what would have occurred in 2002 had this rule not been published. The 
rule shows the redistributive (or relative) change in payments among 
specialties. It does not show the absolute average change in specialty 
level payments from 2001 to 2002 that are also affected by the final 
year of the transition to resource-based practice expense RVUs and the 
physician fee schedule update. The transition to resource-based RVUs is 
complete in CY 2002 and has no effect when comparing the impact on CY 
2002 payments before and after changes made in this final rule. The 
physician fee schedule update and change to the conversion factor are 
discussed in sections VII and IX, respectively.

    Table 22, titled Impact of 5-Year Review and Proposed Rule on 
Medicare Payments for Selected Procedures, shows the percentage change 
in total payment (in CY 2002 physician fee schedule dollars) for 
selected high-volume procedures that result from changes to the 
physician work, practice expense and malpractice announced in this 
final rule. These tables reflect the impact of this final rule only on 
the fully implemented fee schedule amount. The payments in these 
columns are determined using a conversion factor $36.1992. The RVUs 
used for calculating payment in the ``old'' columns are from the 
November 1, 2000 final rule. The RVUs used in calculating payments in 
the ``new'' columns are from this final rule. By using the same 
conversion factor of $36.1992 to calculate payments in both the ``old'' 
and ``new'' columns, the impact of changes to the RVUs that are 
included in this final rule are illustrated. These tables do not show 
the actual impact on payment from 2001 to 2002 that are also affected 
by the final year of the practice expense transition and physician fee 
schedule update.

(In two different places above, we indicate that the tables do not 
include the effect of the ``final'' year of the practice expense 
transition. While we note that resource-based practice expense will be 
fully implemented in 2002, our expectation is that we would continue to 
make refinements that improve the practice expense relative value 
units. We acknowledge that the efforts of the PEAC and RUC to make 
useful comments on practice expense inputs have resulted in significant 
improvements to the data we are using to determine practice expense 
relative value units. The refinements we have made to date have 
affected hundreds of procedure codes accounting for a high percentage 
of Medicare expenditures paid under the physician fee schedule. Our 
expectation is that this work will continue and we continue, to welcome 
comments and input from all members of the public interested in these 
issues).

B. Nurse Practitioners, Physician Assistants, and Clinical Nurse 
Specialists Performing Screening Sigmoidoscopies

    As discussed in section II.B. of the preamble, this regulation will 
expand the list of practitioners for whose services Medicare may make 
payment for screening flexible sigmoidoscopies to include nurse 
practitioners, physician assistants, and clinical nurse specialists, as 
long as those practitioners meet applicable Medicare qualification 
requirements, and they are authorized to perform those screening 
services under State law. At present, the Medicare condition of 
coverage for screening flexible sigmoidoscopies limits coverage of 
those services to those that are performed by either a doctor of 
medicine or osteopathy (as defined in section 1861(r)(1) of the Act) 
who is authorized under State law to perform the examination.
    We estimate that this expansion in the scope of practitioners who 
can receive Medicare payment for screening flexible sigmoidoscopies 
will increase beneficiary access to these screening services and will 
result in an increase in the number of covered exams that are 
performed. At the same time, we estimate that this final rule will 
result in a decrease in payments that are made for certain screening 
flexible sigmoidoscopies because they will be performed by nurse 
practitioners, physician assistants, and clinical nurse specialists, 
since services they provide are paid at 85 percent of the amount of 
payment that is made to physicians for the same screening service. 
Taking these factors into account, we estimate that this provision will 
result in negligible additional Medicare program costs. For a more 
detailed discussion of this provision see section II.B. of this 
preamble.

C. Services and Supplies Incident to a Physician's Professional 
Services--Conditions

    Under this rule auxiliary personnel may provide services incident 
to the services of physicians (or other practitioners) who supervise 
them, regardless of the employment relationship. There are no costs or 
savings to the Medicare program associated with this provision. This 
provision could result in increased beneficiary access to the auxiliary 
personnel. For a more detailed discussion of this provision see section 
II.C. of this preamble.

D. Anesthesia Services--Anesthesia Base Units

    As previously discussed in section II.D. of the preamble, with the 
exception of codes 00142 and 00147, we are using the same anesthesia 
base unit per anesthesia code as the ASA provides in its uniform 
relative value guide. There are eleven codes where our base unit value 
for an anesthesia code differed from the corresponding ASA base unit. 
Using the ASA base units resulted in an increase for 8 codes and a 
decrease for 3 codes. New and revised codes starting in CY 2000 and for 
subsequent years are evaluated on a code-specific basis under our usual 
process after we receive recommendations from the RUC. Thus, because of 
our review of the RUC recommendations, there could be differences 
between the ASA's guide and our base units beginning in CY 2000.
    We have determined the budget neutrality impact on the anesthesia 
CF for the 11 codes for which CMS's base units are equal to the ASA's 
base units as well as the addition of 19 new anesthesia codes in CY 
2002. The impact was determined by estimating the increase or decrease 
in base units between our base units and the ASA's base units for 
existing codes as well as the increase and decrease in base units 
between the new 2002 codes and the previous codes by which the services 
would have been reported. This results in an increase of approximately 
.2 percent in the 2002 anesthesia CF. For a more detailed discussion of 
this provision see section II.D. of this preamble.

E. Performance Measurement and Emerging Technology Codes

    As previously discussed in section II.E. of the preamble, the AMA 
has developed two new categories of codes--performance codes and 
emerging technology. Allowing the performance measurement code to be 
recorded on Medicare billing forms will have no budgetary impact since 
we are not proposing payment for these codes. We are allowing for 
carrier pricing of the emerging technology codes.
    We expect that the emerging technology codes will be used 
infrequently and may be used in place of ``unlisted'' procedure codes 
that are also carrier-priced. There would be few, if any, Medicare 
program costs associated with this proposal. For a more detailed 
discussion of this provision see section II.E. of this preamble.

F. BIPA Provisions Included in This Final Rule

    The following provisions of the BIPA are discussed in detail in 
section III of this preamble. This final rule conforms the regulations 
text to the BIPA provisions. We showed the anticipated costs associated 
with the BIPA provisions in our August 2, 2001 proposed rule (66 FR 
40400). We are showing that same table again in table 23 below.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Screening Mammography
    As discussed in section III.A. of the preamble, the BIPA eliminates 
the statutorily prescribed payment rate for screening mammography and 
specifies that it will be paid under the physician fee schedule 
beginning January 1, 2002. To pay for the professional component of the 
screening mammography, we are using the work and malpractice RVUs that 
have been established for unilateral diagnostic mammography. We are 
establishing the practice expense RVUs for the professional component 
under the resource-based methodology. The process we used to establish 
the practice expense RVU for the TC is described in detail in section 
III.A. Currently, we pay for screening mammography under section 
1834(c) of the Act. Payment for screening mammography under that 
section is not subject to the budget neutrality requirements that apply 
to physician fee schedule services under section 1848(c)(2)(B)(ii)(II) 
of the Act. However, effective January 1, 2002, screening mammography 
will be paid under the physician fee schedule and, thus, subject to the 
budget neutrality requirements that apply to physician fee schedule 
services. We will include the current payment amounts for screening 
mammography in aggregate physician fee schedule payments subject to the 
budget neutrality requirements. As a result, the BIPA requirement that 
we pay for screening mammography under the physician fee schedule will 
not result in an increase in Medicare program expenditures. However, 
the increase in payment for screening mammography under the physician 
fee schedule will be included in the budget neutrality adjustments that 
apply to physician fee schedule services. The BIPA also establishes a 
methodology for determining payment for certain types of new technology 
that are used in providing both diagnostic and screening mammography 
services. The statutory provisions are in effect from April 1, 2001 to 
December 31, 2001. The statute gives us the authority to determine 
whether separate codes and payment amounts are appropriate for 
screening and diagnostic mammography services that involve use of a new 
technology on or after January 1, 2002. We are establishing several new 
codes and fee schedule amounts for screening and diagnostic mammography 
services that involve use of a new technology. We believe this will 
help ensure that all Medicare beneficiaries have access to the benefits 
of mammography, including recent advances that further enhance the 
clinical capability of this vital health service for women. The BIPA 
provisions related to new technology mammography will result in the 
Medicare program costs shown in Table 23. The BIPA makes no changes to 
provisions for Medicare coverage of screening mammography.
2. Screening Pelvic Examinations
    As discussed in section III.B. of the preamble, section 101 of the 
BIPA provides for expanded coverage for screening pelvic examinations 
(including a clinical breast examination) furnished on or after July 1, 
2001. Specifically, the revised benefit will allow for biennial 
coverage of screening pelvic examination for all women who do not 
qualify under the law for annual coverage of such tests. We estimate 
that this change in the frequency of coverage for certain beneficiaries 
will result in an increase in Medicare payments. These payments will be 
made to a large number of physicians and other practitioners who 
provide these tests and for any medically necessary follow-up tests, or 
treatment that may be required as a result of the increased frequency 
of coverage of these tests. Medicare program expenditures associated 
with screening pelvic examinations have been included in the 
President's budget for Medicare expenditures. The impact of this 
provision is shown in Table 23.
3. Screening for Glaucoma
    As discussed in section III.C. of the preamble, section 102 of the 
BIPA authorizes coverage of glaucoma screening examinations effective 
January 1, 2002, subject to certain frequency and other limitations. We 
believe services provided as part of glaucoma screening will often 
overlap with other services a physician provides during a patient 
encounter that is associated with a higher payment amount. We believe 
that physicians will more commonly provide glaucoma tests in 
conjunction with other services and will rarely provide only glaucoma 
screening to Medicare patients. Based on the projected utilization of 
these screening services and related medically necessary follow-up 
tests and treatment that may be required for the beneficiaries 
screened, we estimate that this new benefit will result in an increase 
in Medicare payments. These payments will be made to ophthalmologists 
or optometrists who will provide these screening tests and for any 
related follow-up tests and treatment that may be required. Medicare 
program expenditures associated with the BIPA provision that 
establishes coverage for screening glaucoma are shown in Table 23. The 
addition of the screening glaucoma benefit will allow a greater number 
of beneficiaries access to a preventive service.
4. Screening Colonoscopy
    As discussed in section III.D. of the preamble, section 103 of the 
BIPA amended the Act to add coverage of screening colonoscopies once 
every 10 years for individuals not at high risk for colorectal cancer. 
We estimate that this new benefit will result in an increase in 
Medicare payments. These payments will be made to practitioners who 
will provide these screening tests and related follow-up tests and 
treatment that may be required. The addition of the screening 
colonoscopy benefit will allow beneficiaries who are not at high risk 
for colorectal cancer greater access to preventive services. The impact 
of this provision is shown in Table 23.
5. Medical Nutrition Therapy
    As discussed in section III.E. of the preamble, section 105 of the 
BIPA

[[Page 55327]]

amended the Act to authorize Medicare coverage under Part B of medical 
nutrition therapy (MNT) for beneficiaries who have diabetes or renal 
disease, effective for services furnished on or after January 1, 2002. 
We are implementing this provision in 42 CFR at part 410, in subpart G. 
Specifically, the final rule discusses the education, experience, and 
licensing requirements for dietitians or nutritionists furnishing the 
service. In addition, the final rule discusses a referral requirement 
and the manner by which the medical nutrition therapy and diabetes 
outpatient self-management training benefits will be coordinated to 
avoid duplicate payment. We are also establishing payment amounts for 
these services under the physician fee schedule.
    We estimate that this new benefit will result in an increase in 
Medicare payments. These payments will be made to dietitians and 
nutrition professionals who will provide these diagnostic therapy and 
counseling services. Costs to the Medicare program associated with this 
provision are shown in Table 23.
6. Telehealth
    We estimate that the cost of providing office or other outpatient 
visits, consultation services, individual psychotherapy, and 
pharmacologic management in accordance with section 223 of the BIPA 
will be approximately $20 million in FY 2002 and approximately $60 
million by FY 2006, as indicated above in Table 23.
    This final rule does not mandate that entities provide 
consultation, office or other outpatient visits, individual 
psychotherapy or pharmacological management services via a 
telecommunications system. Thus, this final rule will not require 
entities to purchase telehealth equipment or to acquire the 
telecommunications infrastructure necessary to deliver these services 
via a telecommunications system. Therefore, this final rule does not 
impose costs associated with starting and operating a telehealth 
network.
7. Indian Health Services
    As discussed in section III.G. of the preamble, section 432 of the 
BIPA authorizes payment under the physician fee schedule to physicians 
and certain practitioners for services furnished in a hospital and an 
ambulatory care clinic, whether provider-based or free-standing, of the 
Indian Health Service effective for services furnished on or after July 
1, 2001. We are adding a new Sec. 410.46 to conform our regulations to 
the statute. Costs to the Medicare program for this BIPA provision are 
shown in Table 23.
8. Pathology Services
    As discussed in section III.H. of the preamble, in the November 2, 
1999 physician fee schedule final rule (64 FR 59381), we stated that we 
would implement a policy to pay only hospitals for the TC of physician 
pathology services furnished to hospital inpatients. Before the 
effective date of this proposal, any independent laboratory could bill 
the carrier under the physician fee schedule for the TC of physician 
pathology to a hospital inpatient. That regulation provided that for 
services furnished on or after January 1, 2001, the carriers would no 
longer pay claims to an independent laboratory under the physician fee 
schedule for the TC of physician pathology services furnished for 
hospital inpatients. Similar treatment was provided under the hospital 
outpatient prospective payment system for the TC of physician pathology 
services to hospital outpatients. We delayed implementation of this 
provision for one year; it was to take effect for services furnished on 
or after January 1, 2001. The delay was intended to allow independent 
laboratories and hospitals sufficient time to negotiate arrangements.
    Section 542 of the BIPA requires Medicare to continue to pay for 
the TC of physician pathology services when an independent laboratory 
furnishes this service to an inpatient or outpatient of a covered 
hospital. This provision applies to TC services furnished during the 2-
year period beginning on January 1, 2001.
    In the November 2, 1999 final rule, we estimated that payment under 
the physician fee schedule for TC billings by independent laboratories 
would decrease by $6 million per year if the original proposal had been 
implemented on January 1, 2001. As a result of the BIPA, these savings 
are not realized for two years.

G. Update of the Codes for the Physician Self-Referral Prohibition

    As discussed in section VI of this preamble, we are updating the 
list of codes used to define certain designated health services for the 
purposes of section 1877 of the Act. We are not making any substantive 
change to the description of any designated health service as set forth 
in the January 4, 2001 physician self-referral final rule (66 FR 856). 
Instead, we are merely updating our list of codes to conform to coding 
changes in the most recent publication of CPT and HCPCS codes. For this 
reason, we certify that the changes we are making will not have a 
significant economic effect on a substantial number of small entities 
or on the operations of a substantial number of small rural hospitals. 
For an in-depth discussion of the anticipated effects of the recent 
physician self-referral final rule, refer to the regulatory impact 
statement in that rule as published in the January 4, 2001 Federal 
Register (66 FR 856).

H. Budget-Neutrality

    The increase in physician work RVUs will necessitate an adjustment 
to meet the statute's budget neutrality requirements. We are reducing 
the physician fee schedule CF by -0.46 percent (CF X 0.9954) to ensure 
that the increase in physician work RVUs remains budget neutral across 
all physician fee schedule services. Each year since the fee schedule 
has been implemented, our actuaries have determined any adjustments 
needed to meet the budget-neutrality requirement of the statute. A 
component of the actuarial determination of budget-neutrality involves 
estimating the impact of changes in the volume and intensity of 
physicians' services provided to Medicare beneficiaries as a result of 
the proposed changes to relative value units. Consistent with the 
provision in the November 1998 final rule, the actuaries would use a 
model that assumes a 30 percent volume-and-intensity response to price 
reductions. Based on the practice expense changes that will occur in 
2002, the actuaries estimate that a -0.18 (CF X 0.9982) percent 
adjustment to the conversion factor is necessary to meet the budget 
neutrality requirements in the statute. If the assumed volume and 
intensity offset does not occur, the offset applied to the RVUs will 
be, in essence, returned because there will be a future year adjustment 
to the physician fee schedule update.

I. Impact on Beneficiaries

    Although changes in physicians' payments when the physician fee 
schedule was implemented in 1992 were large, we detected no problems 
with beneficiary access to care. Furthermore, since beginning our 
transition to a resource-based practice expense system in 1999, we have 
not found that there are problems with beneficiary access to care.

J. Federalism

    We have reviewed this proposed rule under the threshold criteria of 
EO 13132, Federalism, and we have determined that the proposed rule 
does

[[Page 55328]]

not significantly affect the rights, roles, and responsibilities of 
States.

Sec. 410.56  Screening pelvic examinations.

* * * * *

[[Page 55330]]

    (b) * * *
    (1) General rule. Except as specified in paragraphs (b)(2) and 
(b)(3) of this section, payment may be made for a pelvic examination

examination was performed.
    (2) More frequent screening based on high-risk factors. Subject to 
the limitation as specified in paragraph (b)(4) of this section, 
payment may be made for a screening pelvic examination performed more 
frequently than once every 24 months if the test is performed by a 
physician or other practitioner specified in paragraph (a) of this 
section, and there is evidence that the woman is at high risk (on the 
basis of her medical history or other findings) of developing cervical 
cancer or vaginal cancer, as determined in accordance with the 
following risk factors:

    (3) More frequent screening for women of childbearing age. Subject 
to the limitation as specified in paragraph (b)(4) of this section, 
payment may be made for a screening pelvic examination performed more 
frequently than once every 24 months if the test is performed by a 
physician or other practitioner as specified in paragraph (a) of this 
section for a woman of childbearing age who has had an examination that 
indicated the presence of cervical or vaginal cancer or other 
abnormality during any of the preceding 3 years. The term ``woman of 
childbearing age'' means a woman who is premenopausal, and has been 
determined by a physician, or a qualified practitioner, as specified in 
paragraph (a) of this section, to be of childbearing age, based on her 
medical history or other findings.

    9. Section 410.78 is revised to read as follows:


Sec. 410.78  Office and other outpatient visits, consultation, 
individual psychotherapy and pharmacologic management via an 
interactive telecommunications system.

    (a) Definitions. For the purposes of this section the following 
definitions apply:
    (1) Asynchronous store and forward technologies means the 
transmission of a patient's medical information from an originating 
site to the physician or practitioner at the distant site. The 
physician or practitioner at the distant site can review the medical 
case without the patient being present. An asynchronous 
telecommunications system in single media format does not include 
telephone calls, images transmitted via facsimile machines and text 
messages without visualization of the patient (electronic mail). 
Photographs visualized by a telecommunications system must be specific 
to the patient's medical condition and adequate for furnishing or 
confirming a diagnosis and or treatment plan. Dermatological 
photographs, for example, a photograph of a skin lesion, may be 
considered to meet the requirement of a single media format under this 
provision.
    (2) Distant site means the site at which the physician or 
practitioner delivering the service is located at the time the service 
is provided via a telecommunications system.
    (3) Interactive telecommunications system means multimedia 
communications equipment that includes, at a minimum, audio and video 
equipment permitting two-way, real-time interactive communication 
between the patient and distant site physician or practitioner. 
Telephones, facsimile machines, and electronic mail systems do not meet 
the definition of an interactive telecommunications system.
    (4) Originating site means, for purposes of a consultation, office 
or other outpatient visit, individual psychotherapy, or pharmacologic 
management via an interactive telecommunications system, the location 
of an eligible Medicare beneficiary at the time the service being 
furnished via a telecommunications system occurs. For asynchronous 
store and forward telecommunications technologies, the only originating 
sites are Federal telemedicine demonstration programs conducted in 
Alaska or Hawaii.
    (b) General rule. Medicare Part B pays for office and other 
outpatient visits, professional consultation, individual psychotherapy, 
and pharmacologic management furnished by means of an interactive 
telecommunications system if the following conditions are met:
    (1) The physician or practitioner at the distant site must be 
licensed to provide the service under State law. When the physician or 
practitioner at the distant site is licensed under State law to provide 
a covered telehealth service (that is, professional consultations, 
office and other outpatient visits, individual psychotherapy, and 
pharmacologic management), he or she may bill for, and receive payment 
for, this service when delivered via a telecommunications system.
    (2) The practitioner at the distant site is one of the following:
    (i) A physician as described in Sec. 410.20.
    (ii) A physician assistant as described Sec. 410.74.
    (iii) A nurse practitioner as described in Sec. 410.75.
    (iv) A clinical nurse specialist as described in Sec. 410.76.
    (v) A nurse-midwife as described in Sec. 410.77.
    (vi) A clinical psychologist as described in Sec. 410.71.
    (vii) A clinical social worker as described in Sec. 410.73.
    (3) The services are furnished to a beneficiary at an originating 
site, which is one of the following:
    (i) The office of a physician or practitioner.
    (ii) A critical access hospital (as described in section 
1861(mm)(1) of the Act).
    (iii) A rural health clinic (as described in section 1861(aa)(2) of 
the Act).
    (iv) A Federally qualified health center (as defined in section 
1861(aa)(4) of the Act).
    (v) A hospital (as defined in section 1861(e) of the Act).
    (4) Originating sites must be located in either a rural health 
professional shortage area as defined under section 332(a)(1)(A) of the 
Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 254e(a)(1)(A)) or in a county that 
is not included in a Metropolitan Statistical Area as defined in 
section 1886(d)(2)(D) of the Act. Entities participating in a Federal 
telemedicine demonstration project that have been approved by, or 
receive funding from, the Secretary as of December 31, 2000 qualify as 
an eligible originating site regardless of geographic location.
    (5) The medical examination of the patient is under the control of 
the physician or practitioner at the distant site.
    (c) Telepresenter not required. A telepresenter is not required as 
a condition of payment unless a telepresenter is medically necessary as 
determined by the physician or practitioner at the distant site.
    (d) Exception to the interactive telecommunications system 
requirement. For Federal telemedicine demonstration programs conducted 
in Alaska or Hawaii only, Medicare payment is permitted for telehealth 
when asynchronous store and forward technologies, in single or 
multimedia formats, are used as a substitute for an interactive 
telecommunications system.
    (e) Limitation. A clinical psychologist and a clinical social 
worker may bill and receive payment for individual psychotherapy via a 
telecommunications system, but may

[[Page 55331]]

not seek payment for medical evaluation and management services.

    10. A new subpart G is added to read as follows:
Subpart G--Medical Nutrition Therapy
Sec.
410.130  Definitions.
410.132  Medical nutrition therapy.
410.134  Provider qualifications.

Subpart G--Medical Nutrition Therapy


Sec. 410.130  Definitions.

    For the purposes of this subpart, the following definitions apply:
    Chronic renal insufficiency means the stage of renal disease 
associated with a reduction in renal function not severe enough to 
require dialysis or transplantation (glomerular filtration rate [GFR] 
13-50 ml/min/1.73m\2\).
    Diabetes means diabetes mellitus consisting of two types. Type 1 is 
an autoimmune disease that destroys the beta cells of the pancreas, 
leading to insulin deficiency. Type 2 is familial hyperglycemia that 
occurs primarily in adults but can also occur in children and 
adolescents. It is caused by an insulin resistance whose etiology is 
multiple and not totally understood. Gestational diabetes is any degree 
of glucose intolerance with onset or first recognition during 
pregnancy. The diagnostic criterion for a diagnosis of diabetes for a 
fasting glucose tolerance test is greater than or equal to 126 mg/dL.
    Episode of care means services covered in a 12-month time period 
when coordinated with initial diabetes self-management training (DSMT) 
and one calendar year for each year thereafter, starting with the 
assessment and including all covered interventions based on referral(s) 
from a physician as specified in Sec. 410.132(c). The time period 
covered for gestational diabetes extends only until the pregnancy ends.
    Medical nutrition therapy services means nutritional diagnostic, 
therapeutic, and counseling services provided by a registered dietitian 
or nutrition professional for the purpose of managing diabetes or a 
renal disease.
    Physician means a doctor of medicine or osteopathy legally 
authorized to practice medicine and surgery by the State in which he or 
she performs such function or action (including a physician within the 
meaning of section of 1101(a)(7) of the Act).
    Renal disease means chronic renal insufficiency, end-stage renal 
disease when dialysis is not received, or the medical condition of a 
beneficiary for 36 months after kidney transplant.
    Treating physician means the primary care physician or specialist 
coordinating care for the beneficiary with diabetes or renal disease.


Sec. 410.132  Medical nutrition therapy.

    (a) Conditions for coverage of MNT services. Medicare Part B pays 
for MNT services provided by a registered dietitian or nutrition 
professional as defined in Sec. 410.134 when the beneficiary is 
referred for the service by the treating physician. Services covered 
consist of face-to-face nutritional assessments and interventions in 
accordance with nationally accepted dietary or nutritional protocols.
    (b) Limitations on coverage of MNT services.
    (1) MNT services based on a diagnosis of renal disease as described 
in this subpart are not covered for beneficiaries receiving maintenance 
dialysis for which payment is made under section 1881 of the Act.
    (2) A beneficiary may only receive the maximum number of hours 
covered under the DSMT benefit for both DSMT and MNT during the initial 
DSMT training period unless additional hours are determined to be 
medically necessary under the national coverage determination process.
    (3) In years when the beneficiary is eligible for MNT and follow-up 
DSMT, the beneficiary may only receive the maximum number of hours 
covered under MNT unless additional hours are determined to be 
medically necessary under the national coverage determination process.
    (4) If a beneficiary has both diabetes and renal disease, the 
beneficiary may only receive the maximum number of hours covered under 
the renal MNT benefit in one episode of care unless he or she is 
receiving initial DSMT services, in which case the beneficiary would 
receive whichever is greater.
    (5) An exception to the maximum number of hours in (b)(2), (3), and 
(4) of this section may be made when the treating physician determines 
that there is a change of diagnosis, medical condition, or treatment 
regimen related to diabetes or renal disease that requires a change in 
MNT during an episode of care.
    (c) Referrals. Referral may only be made by the treating physician 
when the beneficiary has been diagnosed with diabetes or renal disease 
as defined in this subpart with documentation maintained by the 
referring physician in the beneficiary's medical record. Referrals must 
be made for each episode of care and any additional assessments or 
interventions required by a change of diagnosis, medical condition, or 
treatment regimen during an episode of care.


Sec. 410.134  Provider qualifications.

    For Medicare Part B coverage of MNT, only a registered dietitian or 
nutrition professional may provide the services. ``Registered dietitian 
or nutrition professional'' means an individual who, on or after 
December 22, 2000:
    (a) Holds a bachelor's or higher degree granted by a regionally 
accredited college or university in the United States (or an equivalent 
foreign degree) with completion of the academic requirements of a 
program in nutrition or dietetics accredited by an appropriate national 
accreditation organization recognized for this purpose.
    (b) Has completed at least 900 hours of supervised dietetics 
practice under the supervision of a registered dietitian or nutrition 
professional.
    (c) Is licensed or certified as a dietitian or nutrition 
professional by the State in which the services are performed. In a 
State that does not provide for licensure or certification, the 
individual will be deemed to have met this requirement if he or she is 
recognized as a ``registered dietitian'' by the Commission on Dietetic 
Registration or its successor organization, or meets the requirements 
of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section.
    (d) Exceptions.
    (i) A dietitian or nutritionist licensed or certified in a State as 
of December 21, 2000 is not required to meet the requirements of (a) 
and (b) of this section.
    (ii) A ``registered dietician'' in good standing, as recognized by 
the Commission of Dietetic Registration or its successor organization, 
is deemed to have met the requirements of (a) and (b) of this section.

Sec. 415.130  Conditions for payment: Physician pathology services.

    (a) Definitions. The following definitions are used in this 
section.
    (1) Covered hospital means, with respect to an inpatient or an 
outpatient, a hospital that had an arrangement with an independent 
laboratory that was in effect as of July 22, 1999, under which a 
laboratory furnished the technical component of physician pathology 
services to fee-for-service Medicare beneficiaries who were hospital 
inpatients or outpatients, and submitted claims for payment for this 
technical component directly to a Medicare carrier.
    (2) Fee-for-service Medicare beneficiaries means those 
beneficiaries who are entitled to benefits under Part

[[Page 55333]]

A or are enrolled under Part B of Title XVIII of the Act or both and 
are not enrolled in any of the following:
    (i) A Medicare+Choice plan under Part C of Title XVIII of the Act.
    (ii) A plan offered by an eligible organization under section 1876 
of the Act;
    (iii) A program of all-inclusive care for the elderly (PACE) under 
1894 of the Act; or
    (iv) A social health maintenance organization (SHMO) demonstration 
project established under section 4018(b) of the Omnibus Budget 
Reconciliation Act of 1987.
* * * * *
    (d) Physician pathology services furnished by an independent 
laboratory. The technical component of physician pathology services 
furnished by an independent laboratory to a hospital inpatient or 
outpatient before January 1, 2001 may be paid to the laboratory on a 
fee schedule basis. After December 31, 2000 but before January 1, 2003, 
if an independent laboratory furnishes the technical component of a 
physician pathology service to a fee-for-service Medicare beneficiary 
who is an inpatient or outpatient of a covered hospital, the carrier 
will treat the technical component as a service for which payment will 
be made to the laboratory under the physician fee schedule. For these 
two years the service will not be treated as an inpatient hospital 
service for which payment is made to the hospital under section 1886(d) 
of the Act or as an outpatient hospital service for which payment is 
made to the hospital under section 1833(t) of the Act. After December 
31, 2002, the technical component for physician pathology services 
furnished by an independent laboratory to a hospital inpatient or 
outpatient is paid only to the hospital.

    Note: These addenda will not appear in the Code of Federal 
Regulations.

Addendum A--Explanation and Use of Addenda B

    The addenda on the following pages provide various data pertaining 
to the Medicare fee schedule for physicians' services furnished in 
2002. Addendum B contains the RVUs for work, non-facility practice 
expense, facility practice expense, and malpractice expense, and other 
information for all services included in the physician fee schedule.

Addendum B--2002 Relative Value Units and Related Information Used 
in Determining Medicare Payments for 2002

    This addendum contains the following information for each CPT code 
and alphanumeric HCPCS code, except for alphanumeric codes beginning 
with B (enteral and parenteral therapy), E (durable medical equipment), 
K (temporary codes for nonphysicians' services or items), or L 
(orthotics), and codes for anesthesiology.
    1. CPT/HCPCS code. This is the CPT or alphanumeric HCPCS number for 
the service. Alphanumeric HCPCS codes are included at the end of this 
addendum.
    2. Modifier. A modifier is shown if there is a technical component 
(modifier TC) and a professional component (PC) (modifier -26) for the 
service. If there is a PC and a TC for the service, Addendum B contains 
three entries for the code: One for the global values (both 
professional and technical); one for modifier -26 (PC); and one for 
modifier TC. The global service is not designated by a modifier, and 
physicians must bill using the code without a modifier if the physician 
furnishes both the PC and the TC of the service.
    Modifier -53 is shown for a discontinued procedure. There will be 
RVUs for the code (CPT code 45378) with this modifier.
    3. Status indicator. This indicator shows whether the CPT/HCPCS 
code is in the physician fee schedule and whether it is separately 
payable if the service is covered.
    A = Active code. These codes are separately payable under the fee 
schedule if covered. There will be RVUs for codes with this status. The 
presence of an ``A'' indicator does not mean that Medicare has made a 
national decision regarding the coverage of the service. Carriers 
remain responsible for coverage decisions in the absence of a national 
Medicare policy.
    B = Bundled code. Payment for covered services is always bundled 
into payment for other services not specified. If RVUs are shown, they 
are not used for Medicare payment. If these services are covered, 
payment for them is subsumed by the payment for the services to which 
they are incident. (An example is a telephone call from a hospital 
nurse regarding care of a patient.)
    C = Carrier-priced code. Carriers will establish RVUs and payment 
amounts for these services, generally on a case-by-case basis following 
review of documentation, such as an operative report.
    D = Deleted code. These codes are deleted effective with the 
beginning of the calendar year.
    E = Excluded from physician fee schedule by regulation. These codes 
are for items or services that we chose to exclude from the physician 
fee schedule payment by regulation. No RVUs are shown, and no payment 
may be made under the physician fee schedule for these codes. Payment 
for them, if they are covered, continues under reasonable charge or 
other payment procedures.
    G = Code not valid for Medicare purposes. Medicare does not 
recognize codes assigned this status. Medicare uses another code for 
reporting of, and payment for, these services.
    H = Deleted modifier (code used to have modifier of TC and PC).
    I = Code not valid for Medicare purposes. Medicare does not 
recognize codes assigned this status. Medicare uses another code for 
the reporting of, and payment for, these services. This indicator is 
treated in the same manner as status indicator ``G''. It's use allows 
for more efficient processing of Medicare claims.
    N = Noncovered service. These codes are noncovered services. 
Medicare payment may not be made for these codes. If RVUs are shown, 
they are not used for Medicare payment.
    P = Bundled or excluded code. There are no RVUs for these services. 
No separate payment should be made for them under the physician fee 
schedule.
    --If the item or service is covered as incident to a physician's 
service and is furnished on the same day as a physician's service, 
payment for it is bundled into the payment for the physician's service 
to which it is incident (an example is an elastic bandage furnished by 
a physician incident to a physician's service).
    --If the item or service is covered as other than incident to a 
physician's service, it is excluded from the physician fee schedule 
(for example, colostomy supplies) and is paid under the other payment 
provisions of the Act.
    R = Restricted coverage. Special coverage instructions apply. If 
the service is covered and no RVUs are shown, it is carrier-priced.
    T = There are RVUs for these services, but they are only paid if 
there are no other services payable under the physician fee schedule 
billed on the same date by the same provider. If any other services 
payable under the physician fee schedule are billed on the same date by 
the same provider, these

[[Page 55334]]

services are bundled into the service(s) for which payment is made.
    X = Exclusion by law. These codes represent an item or service that 
is not within the definition of ``physicians' services'' for physician 
fee schedule payment purposes. No RVUs are shown for these codes, and 
no payment may be made under the physician fee schedule. (Examples are 
ambulance services and clinical diagnostic laboratory services.)
    4. Description of code. This is an abbreviated version of the 
narrative description of the code.
    5. Physician work RVUs. These are the RVUs for the physician work 
for this service in 2000. Codes that are not used for Medicare payment 
are identified with a ``+.''
    6. Facility practice expense RVUs. These are the fully implemented 
resource-based practice expense RVUs for facility settings.
    7. Non-facility practice expense RVUs. These are the fully 
implemented resource-based practice expense RVUs for non-facility 
settings.
    8. Malpractice expense RVUs. These are the RVUs for the malpractice 
expense for the service for 2000.
    9. Facility total. This is the sum of the work, fully implemented 
facility practice expense, and malpractice expense RVUs.
    10. Non-facility total. This is the sum of the work, fully 
implemented non-facility practice expense, and malpractice expense 
RVUs.
    11. Global period. This indicator shows the number of days in the 
global period for the code (0, 10, or 90 days). An explanation of the 
alpha codes follows:
    MMM = The code describes a service furnished in uncomplicated 
maternity cases including antepartum care, delivery, and postpartum 
care. The usual global surgical concept does not apply. See the 1999 
Physicians' Current Procedural Terminology for specific definitions.
    XXX = The global concept does not apply.
    YYY = The global period is to be set by the carrier (for example, 
unlisted surgery codes).
    ZZZ = The code is part of another service and falls within the 
global period for the other service.
