(Graphic: Business Wire) Laboratories face looming reimbursement pressures and fee cuts in 2018 as a result of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services upcoming January 2018 implementation of the Protecting Access to Medicare Act (PAMA), which will reduce fees significantly for lab tests by using private market lab test prices to establish a new Part B clinical laboratory fee schedule. With CMS' recent finalization of the Clinical Lab Fee Schedule (CLFS), industry experts predict that PAMA will be the most financially-disruptive event to impact the clinical lab industry in 20 years, with Medicare lab test fee cuts projected by CMS to total $670 million in 2018 alone. XIFIN CEO Lâle White stresses the importance of a robust revenue cycle management system in today's turbulent lab market. "Laboratories are facing unprecedented operational, financial and revenue compression challenges that will likely grow as lab reimbursement and operating margins continue to shrink. Unfortunately, trimming operating costs will not make up the shortfall in revenue from laboratory fee schedule cuts, nor will reliance on outdated operating processes and technologies. We believe that XIFIN RPM 9 can play a critical role in uniquely positioning labs to improve workflow, optimize labor, ensure stakeholder engagement and thrive during the challenging times ahead."
