Did you know that CMS denied our request to approve telehealth visits for SGD evaluation and treatment?
Here's how you can help: Please report experiences you have had where clients have been unable to get SGD evaluation or treatment entirely, or in a timely manner due to the pandemic, i.e., due to your inability to deliver in-person services or telehealth services. Please let Lew Golinker, USSAAC Director of Advocacy, know as soon as possible of client adverse-impacts that resulted from these access barriers xxxxxx@aol.com
