Hello!
We work in a vein/vascular practice and we have a patient who has UHC primary and Medicare 2ndary. UHC doesn't require a 90 day conservative therapy trial of compression stockings but Medicare requires conservative therapy if the patient doesn't meet certain criteria. This patient doesn't meet that criteria. Which medical policy guidelines do we follow?
Many thanks!
