Information for mammography facility personnel, inspectors, and consumers about the implementation of the Mammography Quality Standards Act of 1992 (MQSA) |
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) sends the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) an electronic file every Tuesday night which contains the most recent information on facilities approved by FDA to provide mammography services, including digital mammography. Mammography facilities must be certified by FDA in order to be eligible for reimbursement under Medicare. As a first step you might want to ensure that your carrier or fiscal intermediary is looking at the most recent FDA mammography file. If the carrier or intermediary has the most recent file and there is still a reimbursement issue, please contact CMS as follows:
