Wiki Epidural Utilization

[g.fairchild]

Hello ..have heard through the grapevine that Epi's should only be done once every two months as of 2010....this does not make sense to me and I can find no information on this change...has anyone else heard this or have written confirmation? Thank you.

Each payer is going to have their own medical policies. Our local Medicare contractor only allows 4 a year.
