Pub 100-20 One-Time Notification: Mailing To All Individual Practitioners, Medical Groups and Clinics and Independent Diagnostic Testing Facilities (IDTF) Who Are Billing or Have Billed For Advanced Diagnostic Imaging Services

Guidance that rescinds Transmittal 725, dated July 2, 2010, and replaces it with Transmittal 727, dated July 9, 2010. The implementation date and July 2010 reporting requirements are changed to give contractors time to mail the notification letters to the affected providers. Additionally, Code 72200 is removed from the list of CPT codes, because it is a standard x-ray code, and is not a code used for advanced diagnostic imaging services. All other information remains the same.
