Medicare Confirms Coverage for Post-Transplant Monitoring Tests
Medicare confirmed the coverage of post-transplant rejection surveillance tests. Patients can benefit from blood tests like AlloSure®, AlloMap® and HeartCare® to monitor their transplants and get earlier warning if there are indications of rejection.
What changed?
In August, Medicare issued a press release rolling back its proposed coverage restrictions for noninvasive lab tests for transplant monitoring. The announcement followed a fifteen-month campaign spearheaded by a broad group of transplant patient advocacy groups, physician societies, and individual patients and healthcare providers to advocate for the importance of patient access to these non-invasive tests.
