An optometrist has asked me if they can get paid for asynchronous telemedicine retinal photo review in NYS through Medicaid/Davis or any other insurances, They would only do the interpretation and report and sending it back to the patients PCP. In other words the PCP will capture the photos for the diabetic patients, pay 3rd party company flat fee to compile reports and that company would send report to the optometrist for review and I/R. I don’t know how to answer that correctly, does anyone have any information about this that I can pass on?

Thank you
