PAMAwatch: A Reporting-Floor Check for Clinical Labs
A public-data checker that compares an independent lab’s CY2024 Medicare Clinical Laboratory billing with PAMA’s $12,500 reporting floor.
Field notes
The page combines a laboratory’s NPI or name with public CY2024 CMS Medicare Clinical Laboratory billing, then positions the result against PAMA’s stated $12,500 low-expenditure floor. Its broader index contains 1,572 independent, Clinical-Laboratory-typed NPIs and reports $4.6 billion in combined billing, but only 14 confirmed CLIA facility matches. The site explicitly separates this billing comparison from a definitive compliance determination, since the required CLFS-and-PFS revenue share is not visible in the public data.
