Jennifer Bires: ACS NNRT survey regarding the new billing codes developed by Centers for Medicare

Jennifer Bires, Executive Director, Life with Cancer and Patient Experience at Inova Schar Cancer Institute, shared on LinkedIn:

“The American Cancer Society National Navigation Roundtable (ACS NNRT) is distributing this brief survey to gather feedback regarding current experiences with the new billing codes developed by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS/PIN Codes) and the American Medical Association (AMA/ CPT Codes) to support the reimbursement of patient navigation services. Also, the new 2025 physician fee schedule proposal has been published. It can be found here and includes a Request For Information asking for feedback on the PIN codes (see page 213). Your input is important.

The ACS NNRT will use the information gathered via the survey to develop recommendations to improve design and uptake of these codes to be shared with CMS as a response to the Request for Information. The survey is designed to gather feedback from both institutions, who are and are not currently implementing the new codes. If possible, we recommend that team members at the same institution coordinate responses and submit a single response to the survey to avoid duplication. Please also feel free to share the survey with other institutions, or organizations that operate patient navigation programs. ”
