Four things to know:
1. TPT payment status will be effective for up to three years starting Jan. 1, according to a news release.
2. A customary deduction from the add-on payment, known as a device offset, won’t apply to lumbar spinal fusion procedures involving pelvic fixation with the device.
3. “With a growing number of specialty degenerative spine procedures moving to the outpatient setting, the additional reimbursement for Granite ensures that patients and surgeons can access new technology and procedures without regard to the site of service in which they are performed,” SI-Bone CEO Laura Francis said in the release.
4. The iFuse Bedrock Granite is used for pelvic fixation and sacroiliac joint fusion in conjunction with lumbar spinal fusion procedures.
At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
