BELGIUM – May 19, 2022 – – MDxHealth SA (NASDAQ/Euronext:
MDXH), a commercial stage precision diagnostics company, announces
that Palmetto GBA, a Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC) that
assesses molecular diagnostic technologies under its MolDX program,
has finalized a foundational Local Coverage Determination (LCD) for
Molecular Biomarkers to Risk-Stratify Patients at Increased Risk
for Prostate Cancer that covers the indication for our SelectMDx®
for Prostate Cancer test. The foundational LCD identifies evidence
supporting the clinical utility of our SelectMDx test and, when the
LCD becomes effective on July 3, 2022, is expected to support
coverage of our test for qualified Medicare patients throughout the
United States.
Michael McGarrity, CEO of
MDxHealth, commented:
“We are pleased to report this very positive and important
development for MDxHealth. We are certain that our clinical data
for the SelectMDx test, adoption from our urology customer base and
inclusion in the NCCN Guidelines merits coverage by Medicare. We
look forward to continuing to advance availability of our test to
current and new customers and patients entering the diagnostic
pathway of prostate cancer. Our SelectMDx test, coupled with our
ConfirmMDx® test post initial biopsy, presents a clinically
actionable pathway for urologists and patients.”
