I have been informed that the LCD in effect for outpatient rehab providers of Medicare Part B recipients in VA will remain in the same format as 2007 without changes through June of 2008.

Everyone who sent in comments regarding the draft LCD, be assured your efforts were not in vain. The draft will be under consideration again this summer and your comments have been shared with the Ad Hoc Committee.

I will update you as I know more details. If you have any questions or comments, please email them to angelasbrooks@....

Thanks.
