Graham E. Wagner, MD, represented IPSIS members at the September 2025, American Medical Association (AMA) Relative Value Update Committee (RUC) meeting in Chicago, Illinois.

RUC is an advisory body to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) that reviews medical procedures and provides Relative Value Unit (RVU) recommendations. The recommendations approved at this meeting will be presented for final authorization and publication in the next Medicare Physician Fee Schedule.


IPSIS holds a seat at this and other AMA forums by proving that a high percentage of our members also maintain membership in the AMA. IPSIS urges all members to ensure that their AMA membership is current to ensure that the voice of interventional pain specialists continues to be heard.
