Title: Consultative Examination--Annual Onsite Review of Medical Providers (3338F) 
Abstract: We revised the threshold billing amount that triggers annual onsite reviews of medical providers who conduct consultative examinations (CEs) for our disability programs under titles II and XVI of the Social Security Act. The revision raises the threshold amount to reflect the increase in billing amounts since we first established the threshold amount in 1991. This revision restores the level of oversight our rules originally required.
