Specialists
No matter what your specialty, MIPS has a practice category for you.
What’s classified as non-procedural and procedural?
Our Physician categories are classified into non-procedural or procedural. Non-procedural may be selected by consultant physicians who do not perform procedures at all, or physicians who perform only minimally invasive, low risk procedures such as proctoscopy, sigmoidoscopy, fibreoptic bronchoscopy, gastroscopy (but not ERCP) and renal biopsy. Medical Oncologists may select this category.
If you are unsure how to classify a particular procedure, please refer to the Category Guide for more information, or contact us for clarification.
