Important Legislative Changes That May Affect You!

Beginning January 1, 2012, the Secretary of the US Department of Health and Human Services designates that any health care facility or organization, excluding hospitals/hospital-based, home health agencies and skilled nursing facilities, providing MRI, CT, PET and Nuclear Medicine diagnostic imaging procedures must be accredited by one of the following three accrediting bodies in order to receive Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) reimbursement: ACR, IAC, or Joint Commission. Each of these accrediting organizations must include in their criteria for accreditation "standards for qualifications of non-physician personnel who furnish the technical component of advanced diagnostic imaging". The qualifications most generally utilized are the ARRT requirements for advanced level credentialing. The accrediting organizations must also set specific standards for qualifications and responsibilities of medical directors and supervising physicians. Please see your facility and its accrediting organization listed above for all the specific requirements well in advance of January 1, 2012!
