The North American Spine Society (NASS) is pleased to announce publication of the recently revised Coverage Recommendations on Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS). NASS continues to develop and update Coverage Recommendations for various spine care procedures, treatments and diagnostics (30+ topics available as of now).

Dr. Sunny Sharma, along with NASS’ multidisciplinary and evidence-based medicine trained team of spine specialists, spent a significant amount of time reviewing the evidence and developing this valuable resource.

This topic and coverage recommendations related to it have undergone a thorough review by the North American Spine Society. More detailed indications/contraindications are further delineated in the full coverage document.

NASS’ coverage documents continue to be utilized by government agencies, third-party payors, utilization management groups, spine care providers and patients across the nation. We hope these coverage recommendations continue to help provide access to appropriate spine care for all patients affected by spine problems and their sequelae.

NASS would like to thank Dr. Sharma and the entire Coverage Committee for their continued efforts and dedication!
