MRI isn't always an option for #prostatecancer patients. SpaceOAR Vue Hydrogel is designed for enhanced visibility on CT to expand hydrogel spacer use to patients who can't undergo MRI scans. Read insights from Brian C. Baumann & Randall Brenneman: bit.ly/3PDLQop
Looking forward to participating on this panel at Astro. ASTRO SpfldClinic Daniel E Spratt Steven J. Frank, MD #SpaceOar

NAPT Board member Brian C. Baumann of Wash U Radiation Oncology explores how Medicare reimbursement decreased substantially from 2010 to 2019. When considering further cuts, policymakers should consider these trends and their consequences for health care quality and access #radonc
New 📄 in ASTRO IJROBP - The Red Journal #redjournal showing inflation-adjusted #radonc medicare reimbursement has been cut $433M (19%) 2010 - 2019 and $143M (7%) 2015 - 2019, mostly driven decline in IMRT reimbursement

Radiation oncologists are shifting to fewer and larger practices over time. Cause of this change is multifactorial but may be related to the strain of increased MACRA reporting requirements for smaller practices. practicalradonc.org/article/S1879-… ASTRO Wash U Radiation Oncology @hoganj_s
