The American College of Radiology® (ACR®) responded June 14 to the U.S. Senate Committee on Finance white paper, Bolstering Chronic Care through Physician Payment: Current Challenges and Policy Options in Medicare Part B. The white paper included a series of questions on a variety of topics, including but not limited to the need for an inflationary update to the Medicare physician fee schedule conversion factor, value-based care and potential new payment models.
