ACA Agrees, the AFT Administers Traction

En réponse à une question d'un client, Howard Hill a fait valoir avec succès à l'ACA que l'AFT administrait effectivement la traction mécanique (CPT 97012) ainsi que la distraction en flexion. Voici la réponse de l'ACA:

"ACA's Coding Committee has reviewed information submitted by Hill Laboratories in regard to its Automatic Flexion Table (AFT)...the ACA Coding Committee's opinion is that the table in question is in fact capable of administering both mechanical/motorized traction (CPT 97012) as well as flexion distraction (CMT). There are instances in which it would be appropriate, using this type of table, to administer the two separately reportable procedures of motorized/mechanical traction as well as flexion distraction....provided that medical necessity is provided in the clinical notes, 97012 could be reported for the motorized/mechanical traction and CMT (98940-42)...for the flexion distraction. However, the two procedures should not be performed simultaneously."

C’est une excellente déclaration qui ne fait que souligner davantage la valeur clinique et financière de l’AFT Hill!
