The appropriate diagnostic evaluation prior to this procedure will nearly always involve a cervical or lumbosacral spine MRI as well as complete history and physical examination. If the pain is limited to the lower back without obvious radiation into the legs, discography or injection of contrast dye into the disk to further elucidate the pain mechanism may be required. The extent of disk bulge or herniation must be modest, as large herniated disks may not respond well to this treatment. On the other hand, it should be noted that patients with small bulging or herniated disks may benefit more from this non-invasive treatment than from a surgical approach to treating their disk abnormality.

Seem to me a qualified surgeon has a leg to stand on when it comes to diagnosing the need for PDD.

shrick- I have no idea what your agenda is here, but I am very glad you brought this to the boards attention. But might I suggest when speaking of a subject you know little about, you add, "IMO". In this case you really do not understand SPIN's business and the true implications to SPIN. Which is unquestionably positive.If you don't believe me, call the Company.

As I have been saying, SPIN has nothing to do with even the potentially fraudulent cases. Spin's affiliates are paid to assist the case by doing diagnostics. If there is not unquestionable evidence by an MRI (initially diagnosed by a Radiologist MD type) that there is damage, SPIN Affiliates won't take the case. But, even if they do take a case with a questionable MRI, that doesn't mean SPIN itself has to take the receivable.

What you are missing is the obvious. If this does become law, the law will almost force attorneys to build as strong a case as possible. And that is exactly what SPIN affiliates offer. This "law" will be a funnel to send more legitimate business and cull out the BS cases leaving the Insurance Companies with a larger budget to settle the real cases.

Now you can sit here and do "what ifs" all day, but the what ifs that you are bringing up have no more to do with SPIN, then making the same "what ifs" about the ERs.
