Good afternoon,
We are a pain management specialist's office in Texas. We are seeing new information from insurance companies not authorizing epidural steroid injections unless they are done two weeks apart. We have always done these 1 week apart and never had a problem with Medicare or other commercial carriers paying or allowing these at this frequency. Has anyone heard or seen new information that guidelines are changing for the frequency of these to be done no sooner than 2 weeks apart between injections?
Any knowledge or input you can share on this topic is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
