In support of the CMS PRO-PM eligible procedure window starting 7/1/2024 (earlier this week), The Orthopaedic Forum (The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery), posted a great summary of this measure. Trust me that most organizations cannot afford the Annual Payment Update (APU) that is at risk if the measure is not met. Want to learn more about your APU and/or you still need a more consistent and scalable PROMs collection and management solution, please reach out to me, CODE can help. CMS finalized the policy to advance the collection and reporting of PROMs following THAs and TKAs. This approach aims to gather meaningful pre- and post-operative data directly from patients to enhance clinical care, shared decision-making, and quality measurement. This measure underscores the value of incorporating the patient perspective and PROMs into national assessments of care quality and transparency. For orthopedic surgeons, this policy warrants attention and preparation. If you have not checked the boxes on this measure, participation does require time to adapt workflows and data collection protocols. It will also provide an opportunity for surgeons to gain experience collecting and leveraging PROM data in order to improve patient care. As value-based payment models expand, PROM and quality performance on measures such as the THA/TKA PRO-PM may have increasing relevance. The collection of meaningful PROM data and achievement of strong results on the THA/TKA PRO-PM could become a competitive advantage. Most importantly, the optimization of postoperative PROMs should remain the key priority. This CMS policy elevates the patient voice in defining quality care, and keeping patient perspectives central will be essential for delivering excellent arthroplasty care into the future.

FDA Cleared vs. FDA Approved: Know the Difference! As a conscientious attendee of the ESSKA - European Society of Sports Traumatology, Knee Surgery & Arthroscopy Congress in Milan, I navigated the exhibition area dedicated to our Pharma Industry Partners to stay abreast of the latest advancements in orthopaedic surgery equipment. Among the displays, one particular stand drew my attention with their cutting-edge wireless arthroscopy shaver. The interaction with the medical representative went smoothly, and my curiosity was genuinely piqued—until I inquired whether the product was FDA approved. The response was that it had been "FDA cleared." When I clarified that FDA cleared is not the same as FDA approved, the representative confidently asserted, "FDA doesn't like to use words like 'approved,'" insisting there was no difference between the two. This brazen confidence left me stunned, but it also sparked a realization. Such subtle language nuances often go unnoticed by us Europeans, putting us at risk of misinformation. So, let's demystify what "FDA cleared" and "FDA approved" really mean: FDA Approved: This indicates that the FDA has confirmed the benefits of a product outweigh the known risks for its intended use. Manufacturers must submit extensive data, including clinical testing results, through a premarket approval (PMA) application. FDA Cleared: This status is granted when a manufacturer demonstrates their product is substantially equivalent to another legally marketed device. Often, this existing device (or predicate) may even have been previously recalled for safety concerns, yet it still serves as a basis for clearance. Imagine a scenario in a prestigious center looking to hire an Orthopaedic Surgeon. The top criterion is to confirm the candidate’s human status—perhaps cheekily suggested by a DNA test showing 99% similarity with the previous surgeon. If we used the FDA’s logic of substantial equivalence, we might end up with a rather unexpected new surgeon—a chimpanzee in scrubs! Consider the implications of such an absurdly "cleared" candidate. By understanding these distinctions, we can better navigate the complex landscape of medical device approvals and avoid falling for misleading claims, no matter how confidently they are presented. #FDAcleared #FDAapproved #MedicalDevices #PatientSafety #OrthopaedicSurgery #HealthcareInnovation #MedicalMisconceptions #InformedDecisionMaking

🔍 Understanding the Prior Authorization Process for Orthopedic Surgeries 🦴🩺 🔹 Orthopedic surgeries are intricate procedures that require prior authorization to ensure patient safety and appropriate utilization of resources. 🔹 Case Study: Dr. Smith, an orthopedic surgeon, plans to perform a total knee replacement for a patient. The prior authorization process involves submitting clinical documentation detailing the medical necessity of the surgery. 🔹 By obtaining prior authorization, Dr. Smith ensures that the patient's insurance covers the procedure, reducing the financial burden on the patient and the healthcare facility. 🔹 Specialty Focus: Cardiology Procedures 🫀💼 🔹 Cardiologists often perform intricate procedures like cardiac catheterization and pacemaker implantation, which require prior authorization to guarantee the best patient care. 🔹 Case Study: Dr. Patel needs prior authorization for a coronary angioplasty procedure. Through thorough documentation, Dr. Patel demonstrates the necessity of the procedure for the patient's health. 🔹 Prior authorization for cardiology procedures involves detailed clinical information, including diagnostic test results and patient history to support the request. 🔹 Special Consideration: Mental Health Treatments 🧠🩹 🔹 Mental health specialists may require prior authorization for treatments like electroconvulsive therapy or ketamine infusion therapy to ensure patient safety and appropriate utilization of services. 🔹 Case Study: Dr. Johnson requests prior authorization for a series of electroconvulsive therapy sessions for a patient with severe depression. Comprehensive documentation is crucial to justify the treatment plan. 🔹 Prior authorization in mental health treatments involves demonstrating the failure of conventional treatments and the potential benefits of the proposed therapy. 🔹 Engage with us if you have any experiences or questions regarding the prior authorization process for different medical specialties. 🤝💬 #PriorAuthorization #OrthopedicSurgery #CardiologyProcedures #MentalHealthTreatments #HealthcareSpecialties #CaseStudies If you are looking for Prior Authorization Outsourcing Services, please connect with me via email at dan@staffinglyhealthcare.com or by scheduling a Meeting at https://lnkd.in/e4nbe7jV
