I'm not too sure about this, but thought I would throw it out there.

Re: BMP - Perhaps if the doc coded in one of the primary diagnosis with medicare as osteoporosis along with ddd et al (instead of only ddd as a primary diagnosis) - would this make a difference regarding reimbursement for such a procedure???

With ADR - I don't understand why there is such a resistance here for coverage. In my cynical mind - I can think of some, but they are unsubstantiated.
