RPA
launched the NCAP initiative in June 2003
to serve as an advocate and national representative
for physicians engaged in the study and
management of patients with renal disease.
NCAP is
actively involved
in educating RPA members about reimbursement
coverage and regulatory issues which impact
patient care.
NCAP promotes the
development of more effective renal coverage
policies at
the Medicare/Medicaid
carrier level and greater participation
by nephrology as a specialty.
The purpose of NCAP is to provide a forum
in which nephrologists from around the
country
can (1) ensure that there is appropriate
nephrology representation and input into
the development
of local coverage policies affecting renal
care; (2) learn appropriate methods by
which they can shape local renal coverage
policies;
and (3) exchange information regarding
renal coverage policies across state and
regional
boundaries.
