Forgot to include @CMSGov US agency administering Medicare (65+ healthcare) & Medicaid (low income & children's healthcare). How many of you know that Medicare declined to approve blanket coverage of SRS for adults in 2016--due to low quality evidence? /1https://twitter.com/4th_WaveNow/status/1223664910678183936 …

Among reasons cited to deny blanket SRS coverage: Loss to followup, selection bias, small cohorts, low replication. US has government healthcare for older adults. What would a government investigation find for transition if US had all-ages universal healthcare as in the UK? /3pic.twitter.com/sxCzsNt4KU

Full doc
includes exhaustive examination of research & clinical literature used to support the Medicare decision. @MedicaidGov has not conducted such a comprehensive reivew for child transition (and Medicaid DOES cover peds transition in some states). /4 https://www.cms.gov/medicare-coverage-database/details/nca-proposed-decision-memo.aspx?NCAId=282 …Show this thread
