    "description": "The planning work behind intensity-modulated radiation therapy, where the strength of the beam is varied across the field so that dose wraps tightly around an irregular tumor while dropping off fast toward nearby organs. Planning is done backwards from the goal: the team specifies the dose the target must receive and the limits each critical structure must stay under, and the software solves for the beam intensities, producing dose-volume histograms for the target and every organ at risk. It takes substantially more computation and review than conventional 3D conformal planning.",

        "question": "How much did Medicare pay for CPT 77301 in Q4 2022?",
        "text": "Medicare paid $1,863.89 for CPT 77301 in the office (non-facility) setting and $1,863.89 in a facility under the Q4 2022 Physician Fee Schedule, effective October 2022.
