With the Protecting Access to Medicare Act (PAMA) appropriate use criteria (AUC) program paused, healthcare providers may be unsure if they should continue using AUC and Clinical Decision Support (CDS). While providers that have already implemented CDS are urged to continue their use during the pause, questions may linger.

If you have questions about PAMA, AUC or CDS, then join the American College of Radiology®, March 20, 3–4pm ET for the Appropriateness Criteria and Clinical Decision Support: Good for Patients, Providers and Healthcare Facilities webinar.
