bullet Send ASC Comment Letter

Deadline Jan. 28, 2008

If you are interventional pain physician who owns or works in an ASC, it is very important that you send a comment letter to CMS addressing the many disparities which exist between ASC setting and HOPD setting. These disparities coupled with the new proposal by CMS are of great concern to ASIPP and SIPMS.

The cut-off for comment letters is Jan. 28, 2008 but
please customize and send your letter(s) as soon as
possible. If you send you letter via USPS you must
send one original and two copies (3 total should be
mailed). You may also send your comment letter
electronically by clicking on the following link: ASC Comment Letter


We ask that you also get your staff involved as they
may also send comment letters.
