Abstract
This document corrects technical errors in the "Evaluation and Management Services" provisions that appeared in the final rule with comment period published in the Federal Register on November 23, 2018, concerning changes to the Medicare physician fee schedule (PFS) and other Medicare Part B payment policies to ensure that our payment systems are updated to reflect changes in medical practice and the relative value of services, as well as changes in the statute.
