Help me understand this policy that #Anthem #BCBS is making for anesthesia billing? Basically, if a surgery runs longer than THEY think it should, they just stop paying?? The remaining bill just goes to the patient! What happened to the No Surprises Act?? www.npr.org/2024/12/05/n... #AnSky #RASky
Anthem plans to put time limits on anesthesia coverage, alarming doctors and patients
Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield says it will put time limits on anesthesia care starting next year. Doctors and elected officials, including in New York and Connecticut, are asking it to change course.

Good morning from Las Vegas and the beginning of #ASRAFALL24! Can’t wait to meet the whole @ASRA_Society community.
I’ve been building my #StarterPack for #regionalanesthesia people to follow. Check it out! Also, reply to this post if you think you should be part of the Pack! 😁👍🏽 #ANSky #RASky go.bsky.app/FkqtrRc
Maybe just a question in general but what’s the status of Cryoneurolysis? Who’s doing this in their practice? Eg: Geniculate nerves for TKA Suprascapular n for shoulder Amputation pain Intercostal nerves for thoracic surgery
Thanks for the regional anesthesia starter pack @dr-rajgupta.bsky.social get way to get my feet wet here.
I will be leaving for the #ASRA fall meeting in Las Vegas tomorrow. This meeting focuses on chronic pain, but what things related to #RASky should I keep an eye out for? What about peripheral nerve stim for acute pain? Let me know and I’ll report back. #ASRAFALL24
Start with @dr-rajgupta.bsky.social’s starter pack. go.bsky.app/FkqtrRc
One use I am exploring is uploading a large number of studies on a particular topic and asking it questions and mining the outcome data. Also trying it to quickly assess risk of bias domains. Uncertain on reliability
Some tips for #MedSky #MedTwitter Xpats to get started and find followers! 1. Put a pic & description in your bio. As I build starter packs unless I know you I cannot tell whether you would be a great addition to the pack! 2. Packs are curated & to be relevant should include the right kind of folk
I have about 50 people in my first Starter Pack for #RegionalAnesthesia people. Send me your username if you want to be added to the Starter Pack too! Please share with your #RASky colleagues! go.bsky.app/FkqtrRc
