Multifocal Accommodating Presbyopia Correcting IOLs, and Medicare
In May 2005 the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) decided to allow beneficiaries to elect for a presbyopia-correcting intraocular lens (IOLs) if the beneficiary is willing to pay the portion of the facility fee and doctor’s fee that exceed the charges for the implantation of a conventional IOL.
Before this change in CMS policy, doctors were not allowed to bill the patient for one of these advanced technology IOLs. Doctors were not even allowed to offer the advanced technology IOLs
These choices include the accommodating Crystalens (Eyeonics) and the multifocal IOLs, ReStor (Alcon) and ReZoom (Advanced Medical Optics).
