The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) released its 2024 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (MPFS) Proposed Rule July 13. The American College of Radiology® (ACR®) has prepared a radiology-specific preliminary summary of the proposed rule, which proposes a $32.75 PFS conversion factor in 2024, a $1.14 decrease from the 2023 PFS.
CMS in its press release says the proposed rule will “expand behavioral health services, support the President’s Cancer Moonshot, promote innovation, and grow value-based care.” The agency also created a 2024 MPFS fact sheet.
The College continues to review the proposed rule and will provide a detailed summary in the coming days. If you have questions, contact Angela Kim, ACR Senior Director, Economics and Health Policy.
