    The RBMA and the American Colllege of Radiology has collaborated on a letter to various payors regarding flexibility when ordering CT scans during this period of contrast shortage.  (See attached letter).  We have received a response from United Healthcare that I also share as an attachment.  Our thanks to the Payor Relations Committee for their efforts in this regard.
