IPSIS Calls for Revision of Blue Shield of California's Facet Joint Denervation Policy
Tuesday, June 13, 2023
On June 8, 2023, IPSIS has submitted a letter 🔒 expressing its concerns about Blue Shield of California's Facet Joint Denervation Medical Policy (Policy 7.01.116). The letter emphasizes the importance of evidence-based medicine and access to appropriate interventional pain care and addresses the inadvertent exclusion of the C2-3 level, and advocating for a higher threshold in positive response criteria.

You can also help sustain this vital advocacy with
your donations. The International Pain and Spine Intervention Society (IPSIS) is a tax-exempt
organization under US section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. As
such, contributions are deductible to the extent allowed by law.
