Many experts recommend that the temporary neurostimulator be placed in an ASC or outpatient hospital setting.

Must undergo appropriate psychological screening.Must undergo proper patient education, discussion, and disclosure including an extensive discussion of the risks and benefits of this therapy.Must not have active substance abuse issues.Documentation of the history and careful screening must be available in the patient chart if requested. (Such screening must include psychological, as well as physical evaluation). Patients must have undergone careful screening, evaluation and diagnosis by a multidisciplinary team prior to implantation. SCS therapy should be considered as a late option after more conservative attempts such as medications, physical therapy, psychological therapy or other modalities have been tried. Selection of patients for implantation of spinal cord stimulators is critical to success of this therapy.
BEST SPINAL CORD STIMULATOR 2020 TRIAL
In situations where the spinal cord stimulator has been working well but is in need of replacement for battery change, malfunction or end of stimulator life, a new trial is not needed to replace the stimulator. Performance and documentation of an effective trial is a prerequisite for permanent nerve stimulation. Therapy consists of a short trial with a percutaneous implantation of neurostimulator electrode(s) in the epidural space for assessing a patient’s suitability for ongoing treatment with a permanent surgically implanted nerve stimulator. SCS is best suited for neuropathic pain but may have some limited value in other types of nociceptive severe, intractable pain. The implantation of spinal cord stimulators (SCS) may be covered as therapies for the relief of chronic intractable pain. You may also contact us at Indications, Limitations, and/or Medical Necessity
