Sleep Study Scoring and Testing Physician Letter
CGS and Noridian, the DME MAC for J6 and JK respectively, have issued a new Dear Physician letter in regard to sleep study scoring and testing. The letters were issued by these contractors as educational information for the entire country. They will provide informational tips to the physician prescribing the durable medical equipment. You will need to make sure you are getting the correct information documented and shared with the supplier. This allows for the best care for your patient and helps them more easily obtain and keep the equipment they need.
Please read this letter so you can be informed on the information needed from you as a physician prescribing durable medical equipment for your beneficiary. Please note the letter is the same but we will provide you with the link to each of the DME MACs so you will have access in the future for the DME MAC that serves your jurisdiction.
Once you are on the page, you will find the letter titled, “Sleep Test Scoring and Medicare Dear Clinician Letter.”
