The rules say that a manual wheelchair for use inside of the home is covered if: Criteria A, B, C, D, and E are met; and Criterion F or G is met. A.

A mobility limitation is one that: 1. Prevents the beneficiary from accomplishing an MRADL entirely, or 2. Places the beneficiary at reasonably determined heightened risk of morbidity or mortality secondary to the attempts to perform an MRADL; or 3. Prevents the beneficiary from completing an MRADL within a reasonable time frame. B. The beneficiary's mobility limitation cannot be sufficiently resolved by the use of an appropriately fitted cane or walker. C. The beneficiary's home provides adequate access between rooms, maneuvering space, and surfaces for use of the manual wheelchair that is provided. D. Use of a manual wheelchair will significantly improve the beneficiary's ability to participate in MRADLs and the beneficiary will use it on a regular basis in the home. E. The beneficiary has not expressed an unwillingness to use the manual wheelchair that is provided in the home. F. The beneficiary has sufficient upper extremity function and other physical and mental capabilities needed to safely self-propel the manual wheelchair that is provided in the home during a typical day.

You can find these rules in the Medicare Claims Processing Manual, Chapter 23, Section 50.6.

The rules say that Guardant360 remains covered for patients with non-CNS originated solid tumors who meet the criteria of NCD 90.2 when the following conditions are met:
Patient has been diagnosed with a recurrent, relapsed, refractory, metastatic, or advanced solid tumor that did not originate from the central nervous system. Patients who would meet all of the indications on the FDA label for larotrectinib if they are found to have an NTRK mutation may be considered to have advanced cancer, and
- Patient has not previously been tested with the Guardant360 test for the same primary cancer. For a patient who has been tested previously using Guardant360 for a cancer, that patient may only be tested again when the patient has a new primary cancer diagnosis. In a patient with previously tested primary cancer, who has evidence of new malignant growth, that growth may be considered to be a different primary cancer if it does not originate from the same cell line or it is physiologically different enough that it responds differently to treatment than the previously tested cancer, and
- Patient is untreated for the primary cancer being tested or the patient is not responding to treatment (e.g. progression or new lesions on treatment), and
- The patient has decided to seek further cancer treatment with the following conditions:
- The patient is a candidate for further treatment with a drug that is either FDA-approved for that patient's cancer, or has an NCCN 1 or NCCN 2A recommendation for that patient's cancer, and
- The FDA-approved indication or NCCN recommendation is based upon information about the presence or absence of a genetic biomarker tested for in the Guardant360 assay, and
- Tissue-based CGP is infeasible (i.e., quantity not sufficient for tissue-based CGP or invasive biopsy is medically contraindicated) or specifically in NSLC Tissue-based CGP has shown no actionable mutations.

The rules say that Medicare will not pay for dental services. Dental services are items and services involving the care, treatment, filling, removal or replacement of teeth or structures directly supporting the teeth. Medicare defines "structures directly supporting the teeth" as the periodontium, which includes the gingivae, dentogingival junction, periodontal membrane, cementum of the teeth, and alveolar process. You can find this rule in the Social Security Act, Section 1862(a)(12) and in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Internet Only Manual, Medicare Benefit Policy Manual, Chapter 15, Section 150. The reconstruction of a ridge performed primarily to prepare the mouth for dentures is a non-covered procedure. However, when the reconstruction of a ridge is performed as a result of and at the same time as the surgical removal of a tumor (for other than dental purposes), the totality of surgical procedures is a covered service. You can find this guidance in the Medicare Benefit Policy, Chapter 15, section 150.
