Third-party claim
“if it's not paid for under a rubric that the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services understands, then it's not gonna be available to the vast majority of people covered by Medicare. Then, most commercial insurance follows Medicare's lead.”
RAMHT 2024 takeaway attributed to Carlene MacMillan, M.D. (Fermata; Clinical TMS Society board), introduced with 'points out'. Claim: novel rapid-acting treatments will not reach most Medicare patients unless CMS pays for them under a rubric it understands, and commercial insurers follow Medicare.
