Proposal on CMR Codes and Tariffs

As you may be aware, together with the British Society of Cardiac Imaging (BSC), the BSCMR Board (with Dr James Moon leading the effort) has, in recent months, been working with the Department of Health to develop a proposal on CMR codes and tariffs.  In the interim, these codes and tariffs have now been endorsed for local commissioning and data collection and we hope will be taken forward within the formal coding/tariff NHS systems.

This is a major achievement for CMR, possibly the single most important step to establishing CMR more widely in the UK.  The document can be downloaded here and we hope you find it useful.

5th BSCMR Annual Meeting

This meeting will take place on Wednesday 24 March 2010 in London.  The programme is in preparation and will be available on this website soon, together with a registration form.
