Effect of Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography-Derived Fractional Flow Reserve on Physicians' Clinical Behavior　- Differences Between Sites With and Without Appropriate Use Criteria as Designated by the Japanese Reimbursement System.

ABSTRACT: Background: Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA)-derived fractional flow reserve (FFR_CT) is an established tool for identifying lesion-specific ischemia that is now approved for use by the Japanese insurance system. However, current clinical reimbursement is strictly limited to institutions with designated appropriate use criteria (AUC). This study assessed differences in physicians' behavior (e.g., use and interpretation of FFR_CT, final management) according to Japanese AUC and non-AUC site designation. Methods and Results: Of 5,083 patients in the ADVANCE Registry, 1,829 from Japan were enrolled in this study. Physicians' behavior after interrogating CCTA and FFR_CT was analyzed separately according to AUC and non-AUC
