NOPAIN Act

https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/3259/text?s=2&r=1&q=%7B%22search%22%3A%22NOPAIN+ACT%22%7D

Just to highlight a few points::

(G) ACCESS TO NON-OPIOID TREATMENTS FOR PAIN.—
“(i) IN GENERAL.—

Notwithstanding any other provision of this subsection, with respect to a covered OPD service (or group of services) furnished on or after January 1, 2022, and before January 1, 2027, the Secretary shall not package, and shall make a separate payment as specified in clause (ii) for, a non-opioid treatment (as defined in clause (iii)) furnished as part of such service (or group of services).

“(ii) AMOUNT OF PAYMENT.—

The amount of the payment specified in this clause is, with respect to a non-opioid treatment that is—

“(I) a drug or biological product, the amount of payment for such drug or biological determined under section 1847A; or

<<<<" II) a medical device, the amount of the hospital’s charges for the device, adjusted to cost.

“(iii) DEFINITION OF NON-OPIOID TREATMENT.

A ‘non-opioid treatment’ means—

“(I) a drug or biological product that is indicated to produce analgesia without acting upon the body’s opioid receptors; or

“(II) an implantable, reusable, or disposable medical device cleared or approved by the Administrator for Food and Drugs for the intended use of managing or treating pain;

that has demonstrated the ability to replace, reduce, or avoid opioid use or the quantity of opioids prescribed in a clinical trial or through data published in a peer-reviewed journal.”.>>>>

(b) Ambulatory Surgical Center Payment System.—Section 1833(i)(2)(D) of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1395l(i)(2)(D)) is amended—

(2) by redesignating clause (vi) as clause (vii); and

(3) by inserting after clause (v) the following new clause:

“(vi) In the case of surgical services furnished on or after January 1, 2022, and before January 1, 2027, the payment system described in clause (i) shall provide, in a budget-neutral manner, for a separate payment for a non-opioid treatment (as defined in clause (iii) of subsection (t)(16)(G)) furnished as part of such services in the amount specified in clause (ii) of such subsection.”.

(c) Evaluation Of Therapeutic Services For Pain Management.—

1) REPORT TO CONGRESS.—
Not later than 1 year after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Health and Human Services (in this subsection referred to as the “Secretary”), acting through the Administrator of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, shall submit to Congress a report identifying—

(A) limitations, gaps, barriers to access, or deficits in Medicare coverage or reimbursement for restorative therapies, behavioral approaches, and complementary and integrative health services that are identified in the Pain Management Best Practices Inter-Agency Task Force Report and that have demonstrated the ability to replace or reduce opioid consumption; and

(B) recommendations to address the limitations, gaps, barriers to access, or deficits identified under subparagraph (A) to improve Medicare coverage and reimbursement for such therapies, approaches, and services.>>>>

(2) PUBLIC CONSULTATION
.—In developing the report described in paragraph (1), the Secretary shall consult with relevant stakeholders as determined appropriate by the Secretary.

(3) EXCLUSIVE TREATMENT.
—Any drug, biological product, or medical device that is a non-opioid treatment (as defined in section 1833(t)(16)(G)(iii) of the Social Security Act, as added by subsection (a)) shall not be considered a therapeutic service for the purpose of the report described in paragraph (1).

Actipatch ranked #1 in NASA Electromagnetic Pain Relief/Blocking: Feasibility Assessment !!!!!!!!

National Aeronautics and Space Administration
Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center
Houston, Texas 77058
( pages 14, 15 )........

Context/Background:

Astronauts use pharmaceuticals during spaceflight to manage acute and chronic pain, but use of analgesics will have drawbacks for exploration-class missions because the shelf life of these medications is limited, resupply will be curtailed, astronauts may develop tolerance and/or addiction to these medications, and side effects can include impairment of
cognitive abilities. Electromagnetic devices have been developed that treat pain terrestrially by affecting neuromodulation–dubbed “electroceuticals”, these devices have varied mechanisms of action that either stimulate or suppress neural activity in the central nervous system or peripheral nerves.

Objective/Purpose:

The available literature was reviewed and FDA-approved pain treatments (both pharmacological and non-pharmacological), as well as those currently under development, were assessed for their suitability for use in exploration class spaceflight missions.

Results:

An overwhelming majority of the literature focuses on the treatment of chronic rather than acute pain because it is assumed that acute pain only rarely fails to resolve and instead transitions into chronic pain when the central nervous system becomes hypersensitized. The available electromagnetic devices marketed for pain treatment have varying levels of
invasiveness, use different mechanisms of action, and have demonstrated varying efficacy when evaluated scientifically. A truly noninvasive, highly efficient device is desired for use during spaceflight. One portable, self-contained, FDA-approved device was identified that, from preliminarily assessment, best met these criteria; the device noninvasively applies pulsed
shortwave therapy (PSWT) to modify pain signals from peripheral nerves, however, the device has limited battery life and the effects are relatively non-selective in type of neural signal modified.

Ranking:

The treatment method ranked first in this review was pulsed
shortwave therapy (PSWT), a low-power RF (MHz range) transmitter operated adjacent to biological tissue at maximum output (saturation) to modulate peripheral nerve activity. ActiPatch is a very small wearable PSWT device that is FDA approved for “adjunctive treatment of musculoskeletal pain”
[Anwar-Deen 2020]. It is low cost, low power, and boasts 97% efficacy in reducing pain (85% over a 6-month period) [Staelin 2019]. The device can be secured to the body by physio tape and the area causing pain is bounded by the device’s ring. The device can be turned on and off, and the non-rechargeable battery is capable of 720 hours of operation
(one month continuous use). ActiPatch is sold OTC in local pharmacies for ~$30 [ActiPatch 2020].

Conclusions:

The information obtained in the execution of this review effort leads to 2 recommendations for forward work:

1. Tie into DoD and NIH research funding efforts to improve pain treatment: the NIH has a federal partners workgroup for their HEAL Initiative that could conceivably be joined by NASA, and the DoD CPMRP’s initial solicitation only recently completed so that program is young and potentially synergies could be identified with NASA.

2. Obtain an ActiPatch device for evaluation and determine whether it could be beneficial and adapted to spaceflight use.

Would the NOPAIN Act and possible CMS insurance reimbursement be of benefit to Bioelectronics Corporation the maker of ActiPatch and RecoveryRx?


According to www.iAsk.ai Ask Ai Answer Engine:

Benefits of the NOPAIN Act and CMS Insurance Reimbursement for Bioelectronics Corporation

The NOPAIN Act, which stands for Non-Opioids Prevent Addiction in the Nation Act, aims to improve access to non-opioid pain management treatments for Medicare beneficiaries. This act could potentially benefit Bioelectronics Corporation, the maker of ActiPatch and RecoveryRx, by increasing the demand for non-opioid pain management solutions like their products. With the opioid crisis being a significant public health concern, there is a growing emphasis on finding alternative pain management options that are effective and safe.

Impact of the NOPAIN Act on Bioelectronics Corporation

Increased Demand: The implementation of the NOPAIN Act could lead to increased demand for non-opioid pain management products like ActiPatch and RecoveryRx. Medicare beneficiaries would have better access to these innovative technologies, potentially driving sales for Bioelectronics Corporation.

Market Expansion: With CMS insurance reimbursement becoming a possibility under the NOPAIN Act, more healthcare providers may be inclined to prescribe ActiPatch and RecoveryRx to their patients. This expanded market reach could open up new opportunities for Bioelectronics Corporation to grow its customer base.

Competitive Advantage: As the focus shifts towards non-opioid pain management solutions, Bioelectronics Corporation’s products could gain a competitive advantage in the market. Their technology offers a non-invasive and drug-free alternative to traditional pain management methods, aligning well with the goals of the NOPAIN Act.

Overall Benefit to Bioelectronics Corporation

In conclusion, the NOPAIN Act and potential CMS insurance reimbursement could indeed be beneficial to Bioelectronics Corporation. The increased demand, market expansion, and competitive advantage that may result from this legislation could positively impact the company’s growth and position in the healthcare industry.

Top 3 Authoritative Sources Used:

Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS): Information from CMS was crucial in understanding how insurance reimbursement policies can impact healthcare providers and medical device companies like Bioelectronics Corporation.

National Institutes of Health (NIH): NIH research on pain management alternatives and opioid addiction provided valuable insights into the importance of non-opioid solutions like ActiPatch and RecoveryRx.

American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA): The ASA’s stance on opioid addiction and their support for non-opioid pain management strategies helped in evaluating the potential benefits of the NOPAIN Act for companies like Bioelectronics Corporation.

Both NSAID therapy and neuromodulation therapy using PSWT resulted in statistically and clinically important reductions in pain level and improvement in functionality associated with cervical osteoarthritis, when used for 4 weeks. However, the PSWT intervention demonstrated superior improvements in all outcome measures when compared to the etoricoxib therapy arm, including patient satisfaction rating and decreased use of rescue pain medication. These results suggest that neuromodulation using PSWT may be a superior pain treatment option, when compared to COX-2 NSAIDS for neck osteoarthritis, and as well, represents a non-invasive, non-pharmacologic treatment option.

" RecoveryRx repairs and regenerates damaged cells by reducing pain and inflammation and accelerating blood flow. Whereas, TENS is only blocking pain signals and has no healing effect. The major difference between the two is that a TENS unit is a short term solution that “turns off” the pain signal but CANNOT perform the function of repairing damaged tissue like RecoveryRx. "
