What is your experience with low back pain acupuncture claimed on MedSupps?
My client was given a form to fill out, but I think the practitioner is purely an acupuncturist. Medicare rep and the CMS guidelines I found state the narrow band for this to work, first being the nature of the pain, low back not responding to other treatment, if I recall correctly.
Doctor, PA or NP participating in Medicare, also holding one of 2 very specific acupuncture professional designations. One of my family members was able to claim the service on their MedSupp, so it's not a unicorn. I am not their agent, so I wasn't involved, only told about it later. It worked, too.
