Action Required

Once the complete policy is received, resubmit for analysis. Given the 07/01/2026 effective date and the CRPS treatment focus, this will likely affect pain management and neurology practices. Do not delay — CRPS treatment decisions require clear billing and coverage guidance before the effective date.
