The rules say that a Pneumatic Compression Device (PCD) that provides intermittent limb compression for the 
purpose of prevention of venous thromboembolism (E0676) is a preventive service. Items that are used for a 
preventative service or function are excluded from coverage under the Medicare Durable Medical Equipment 
(DME) benefit. A PCD coded as E0675 to treat peripheral arterial disease is not eligible for reimbursement. 
There is insufficient evidence to demonstrate that reimbursement is justified. Claims for E0675 will be denied 
as not reasonable and necessary.  
 
PCDs coded as E0650, E0651, E0652 are used only in the treatment of lymphedema or for the treatment of 
chronic venous insufficiency with venous stasis ulcers. Reimbursement for these items is based upon the 
criteria in the following sections. PCD coded as E0675 is used in the treatment of peripheral arterial disease. 
Claims for E0675 will be denied as not reasonable and necessary as outlined below. A PCD coded as E0650 or 
E0651 used to treat lymphedema that does not meet all of the requirements above is not eligible for 
reimbursement. Claims will be denied as not reasonable and necessary. A PCD coded as E0650 or E0651 used 
to treat edema from causes other than lymphedema is not eligible for reimbursement. Claims will be denied as 
not reasonable and necessary. You can find this information in the Local Coverage Article: Pneumatic

The rules say that Medicare has reviewed evidence on the use of positron emission tomography (PET) imaging to determine initial anti-tumor treatment in patients with adenocarcinoma of the prostate. Medicare has determined that the available evidence does not demonstrate that PET imaging improves physician decision making in the determination of initial anti-tumor treatment strategy in Medicare beneficiaries who have adenocarcinoma of the prostate, does not improve health outcomes and is thus not reasonable and necessary under 1862(a)(1)(A) of the Act. Therefore, a PET scan is nationally non-covered for this indication.
