Effective June 23rd 2019, when completing an online order an additional attestation to support Medical Necessity will appear when placing an order. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) requires a signed physician order be maintained in the patient record for each test ordered or the signature of the ordering physician/pathologist on the test requisition form attesting to the medical necessity of each test, or panel of tests ordered.
