ACR Backs Ultrasound Guidance for Trigger Point Care
ACR urges Medicare to cover ultrasound guidance for high‑risk trigger point injections to improve safety and accuracy.
Read moreAn American College of Radiology® (ACR®)-led coalition of more than 100 physician and non-physician provider organizations wrote congressional leadership Feb. 28, requesting their inclusion of a fix to the 2025 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule conversion factor (CF) in any government funding legislation; current federal funding expires March 14. ACR and the coalition are pressing for the Medicare pay fix to stop the cut in place since Jan. 1; the 2025 CF is about 2.8% below the 2024 CF.
ACR members who have not reached out to their U.S. Representative are asked to take action today. Contact your lawmaker and urge their support of the Medicare Patient Access and Practice Stabilization Act of 2025 (H.R. 879).
For more information or if you have questions, contact Rebecca Spangler, ACR Senior Government Relations Director.
