Finally. The time has come to discuss "the changes".

On November 1st, 2019, CMS announced that hospital outpatient procedures would be moving to "General Supervision". Of course, this broke our dogma, which...well, we don't deal with that well. Then, the PHE brought us "virtual direct supervision" with real-time A/V communication.

In Episode Three of the Supervision Series, we cover the switch from direct to general, the specious argument that "IGRT is diagnostic", the specious argument that "you can't bill for professional work done off-campus", and the final two supervision cases in Radiation Medicine: the Maryland case (settled for...$300,000) and a previously unknown Kentucky case (technically ongoing, but the judge was kind enough to write lengthy opinions pre-emptively agreeing with everything I've ever said).
