Treatment for facial wasting CMS
#248561 - 11/23/09 06:58 PM

CMS, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services closed a public comment period on the treatment for facial wasting a couple of months ago. All the comments I read were heavy in favor of providing reimbursement, however, I have not been able to find any information on the outcome, post public comment. As I understood, a decision would be made by end of October... Does anyone have any information from CMS?
