Excerpt From Appropriate Use Criteria Tip Sheet

Here’s a small excerpt of a tip sheet developed by UNC Health in North Carolina to help its providers navigate Medicare’s appropriate use criteria (AUC) for advanced diagnostic imaging,[1] said Patrick Kennedy, executive director of hospital compliance. The AUC requirement includes the use of a clinical decision support mechanism. UNC is using CareSelect as its clinical decision support mechanism, and the tip sheet includes screenshots of the predicted indications based on “an artificial intelligence algorithm that uses information from the medical record to dynamically predict the most relevant indications.” Contact Kennedy at patrick.kennedy@unchealth.unc.edu.
