RadNet to be reimbursed for its EBCD program

RadNet (RDNT) announced that Regal Medical Group, Lakeside Community Healthcare and ADOC Medical Group, affiliates of Heritage Provider Network, or HPN, one of the largest physician-owned medical groups in Southern California, have agreed to reimburse RadNet for its EBCD program — which will now be included as a benefit in their members’ health plans. These medical groups predominantly located in Los Angeles, Ventura, Orange, San Bernardino, Riverside and San Diego counties, will now provide the AI-powered breast cancer detection services to all of their mammogram-eligible patients. Additionally, RadNet will launch an ongoing patient-outreach program to increase compliance within these medical groups with annual screening guidelines, by proactively contacting eligible patients to encourage and remind them to make their mammography appointments.
