"We are optimistic about our Gamma Knife business in 2015. One reason is the increase in reimbursement for both Gamma Knife and linear accelerator (LINAC) radiosurgery that went into effect on January 1, 2015. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has established a comprehensive Ambulatory Payment Classification (APC) for Gamma Knife and LINAC one session cranial radiosurgery, one of the most common procedures performed on these devices. The comprehensive reimbursement rate of approximately $9,768 will be inclusive of the delivery and ancillary codes but exclusive of co-insurance payments or other adjustments. For 2014, the average current CMS reimbursement rate for delivery and ancillary codes (exclusive of co-insurance and other adjustments) was approximately $5,600--an estimated increase of $4,168 per Medicare Gamma Knife treatment (exclusive of co-insurance and other adjustments).
