AMA Tumor Workgroup August 18 2022

Tumor genomics testing workgroup

This workgroup aims to create CPT coding solution(s) for extended/comprehensive genomic testing in tumor/neoplastic conditions, including whole genome sequencing. In the deliberation process, the workgroup will utilize information gained in the AMA’s July 2021 Diagnostic Precision Medicine Coding and Payment meeting to determine the feasibility of more granular coding solutions within this space. If deemed appropriate the workgroup may additionally suggest a more granular coding solution for non-neoplastic genomics testing.

Our next workgroup call will be held on Aug. 18, 2022, from 5-6:30p.m. Central. Register now on Zoom.

Each public call will allow for time at the end for stakeholder comments. We cannot guarantee that everyone will have time to speak during these open comment sections, but it is our intent to hear from all sides. Also, given the nature of the discussion, attendees will need to sign an AMA CPT Confidentiality form. DocuSign forms will be sent to attendees prior to the meeting. Attendees must fill out the forms prior to attending, otherwise they will not be allowed to join the call.
