Section 634 of that Act decreases Medicare outpatient reimbursement for Cobalt
60 stereotactic radiosurgery (“Gamma Knife®”) for brain disorders by more than
50%. Which is below the cost of providing a procedure. This will reduce access
to an important treatment for Medicare beneficiaries, result in certain
patients and potentially impose cost increases on the Medicare program over
time.
