Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs) will host a Multi-Jurisdictional Contractor Advisory Committee (CAC) Meeting regarding Epidural Interventions for Chronic Pain Management

Date: February 11, 2021, from 1-4 p.m. Central Time

Due to the public health crisis this meeting will be held via Teleconference/Webinar ONLY.

On February 11, 2021, seven Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs); lead by Novitas Solutions (Jurisdictions H and L) and First Coast Service Options (Jurisdiction N), will host a multi-jurisdictional CAC meeting.

The purpose of the meeting is to obtain advice from CAC members and subject matter experts (SMEs) regarding the strength of published evidence on epidural interventions for chronic pain management. In addition to discussion, the SME panel will vote on pre-distributed questions during the meeting. CAC panels do not make coverage determinations, but MACs benefit from their advice.

All compliant CAC members will be given the opportunity to submit their answers to the voting questions and/or any written comments within one week of the meeting. The public is invited to attend as observers.

Complete details, including background material, voting questions, agenda, and registration will be available on the contractor websites by January 28, 2021.
