Point-of-care spin, kit handling, and documentation basics. Injection technique, privileging, and ultrasound guidance remain the clinic’s clinical education path in Florida.
Florida is in CMS MAC JN, administered by First Coast Service Options. CTP and skin-substitute coverage is written at the MAC level. Confirm the current LCD/article before you set utilization — we help practices map product to those rules; we do not override them.
A 510(k)-cleared device has a different regulatory file than a 361 HCT/P. Do not store, bill, or describe them as the same SKU family. Your SOP should split receiving and indication language.
If you operate in Florida and another MAC state, say it on the first call. JN will not port 1:1. We would rather split utilization than watch a sister clinic copy Clearwater tickets into the wrong jurisdiction.
