This LCD proposal is an awful one, which would restrict access to effective doses of botulinum toxin to many patients who need it for spasticity. I was glad to help in the fight against it!

This is so important! Some Medicare Advantage plans are better than others, but traditional Medicare is best, especially in the case you need rehabilitation for a severe illness or injury. The delays and denials have real consequences.

Please take a minute to contact your rep in Congress about this important act! Without a reversal of recent reimbursement cuts, I’m afraid even more physicians will stop seeing patients with Medicare, who very much deserve good care! #physiatry AAPM&R News
